About this course

NVQ Level 2 Curtain Walling Course in Worcester. Classes run at GFTS Worcester, combining online study with time at the centre.

The course confirms you have the skills to install curtain wall systems on site. It covers a range of system types and installation environments, so the qualification is built to reflect real variation in the work. You must already be working in the industry to enrol. The course typically takes 12 months to complete.

You'll finish with an NVQ Certificate in Curtain Wall Installation.

Who this course is for

The aim of this qualification is to confirm that the candidate has the skills and knowledge to install Curtain Wall systems on site. It is not expected that all curtain wall installers will carry out identical tasks as there are many variations in system types and installation environments so the qualification had been developed to allow as wide an uptake as possible. All of the work needs to be completed in accordance with relevant legislation, regulations and health and safety guidelines.
