Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Steel Fixing Occupations

Description

This qualification is vocationally based and as such, offers the opportunity for learners to demonstrate an achievement of practical skills, understanding and knowledge in the workplace. Learners will gain knowledge on generic skills such as health and safety, working productively and moving and handling. In addition learners will demonstrate their abilities in cutting and bending reinforcement steel, fixing steel in-situ and prefabricating reinforcement steel sections. They can also complete the slinging and hand signalling the movement of suspended loads but this does not count towards the qualification.

This qualification has been developed with reference to the National Occupational Standards (NOS) and completion of the qualification will provide learners with evidence of their occupational competence and could enable them to progress onto additional training such as the Level 3 NVQ in Occupational work Supervision. Achievement of this qualification will provide the evidence required for the learner to apply for their Blue –Skilled Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) -card.
