Site Inspection NVQ
Level 3 NVQ - (Gold CSCS Card)
The Level 3 Site Inspection NVQ is suitable for professionals who monitor construction work, check quality standards, and ensure compliance on live projects.
NOTE: There is also a Senior Level 6 version of this NVQ, which leads to a Black CSCS Card.
How the NVQ is Assessed
Our Site Inspection NVQ is designed to be straightforward and flexible, with no formal assignments or written work for candidates to complete.
We do not provide candidates with an e-portfolio or online platform to manage themselves. Instead, your assessor oversees the portfolio-building, and guides the process.
Your knowledge and understanding are captured through recorded professional discussions with your assessor, rather than through written questions or lengthy assignments.
Items such as reports, programmes, spreadsheets and e-systems are examined throughout the process, to demonstrate your role and responsibilities (and areas of competence).
Where appropriate, your assessor may also visit you in the workplace to carry out face-to-face assessment activities. However, the qualification is normally completed remotely through an engaging, supported process.
How Long Does the NVQ Take?
The timescale between registration and completion varies for different candidates – candidate experience and willingness are key factors here. However, 3-6 months is an achievable duration for competent candidates.
Cost
The standard cost of this Level 3 NVQ is £1025 plus VAT at the prevailing rate. Grant money can be claimed back at completion by companies registered with CITB.
