NVQ NVQ ININ SSCAFFOLDINGCAFFOLDING
WHAT ARE NVQ / QCF’S
NVQ / QCF’s (National Vocational Qualifications). Make sure you have the skills knowledge and
understanding to do your job well, an NVQ / QCFdoesn't just show that you have passed a
written test - it proves that you really have what employers need.
Most jobs require practical skills and knowledge. Traditionally most qualifications have been
awarded on the basis of examinations which measure what a person knows, NVQ / QCF are
different. They use on the job training and assessment to provide evidence that a person can
carry out work to a standard required by Industry.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?
The problem with most qualification is that they don't always take account of experience or keep
pace with what the person actually does. NVQ / QCF's differ in that they assess current levels
of competence against the National Standards for the Industry.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
Whatever age your NVQs/SVQs are worth getting. They can be obtained at any stage in a
persons career.
The awarding bodies have agreed that work carried out in the past can qualify a person for any
of the elements and units which go towards a level ... so long as there is acceptable evidence
that it was that persons work and carried out competently. For example existing qualifications,
or in their absence reports photographs, samples of work or anything similar can be accepted
by assessors as historical evidence, this is called Accreditation or Prior Learning or "APL".

NVQ NVQ ININ SSCAFFOLDINGCAFFOLDING
WHAT ARE NVQ / QCF’S
NVQ / QCF’s (National Vocational Qualifications). Make sure you have the skills knowledge and
understanding to do your job well, an NVQ / QCFdoesn't just show that you have passed a
written test - it proves that you really have what employers need.
Most jobs require practical skills and knowledge. Traditionally most qualifications have been
awarded on the basis of examinations which measure what a person knows, NVQ / QCF are
different. They use on the job training and assessment to provide evidence that a person can
carry out work to a standard required by Industry.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?
The problem with most qualification is that they don't always take account of experience or keep
pace with what the person actually does. NVQ / QCF's differ in that they assess current levels
of competence against the National Standards for the Industry.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
Whatever age your NVQs/SVQs are worth getting. They can be obtained at any stage in a
persons career.
The awarding bodies have agreed that work carried out in the past can qualify a person for any
of the elements and units which go towards a level ... so long as there is acceptable evidence
that it was that persons work and carried out competently. For example existing qualifications,
or in their absence reports photographs, samples of work or anything similar can be accepted
by assessors as historical evidence, this is called Accreditation or Prior Learning or "APL".
