NRSWA Operative Streetworks Course near Belper
If you are an operative on UK roadwork sites, you'll need certification. But spaces in our NRSWA Operative Streetworks Course in Belper sell out quickly, so don't delay.
NRSWA Operative Streetworks Course Belper
Anyone who engages in any type of manual labour on a streetworks jobsite is considered an operative. That means carpenters, electricians, equipment operators and more. As mandated by the New Roads and Streetworks Act of 1991, the days when anyone could perform work on a streetworks jobsite are over. All operatives must be properly trained and certified. The easiest way to get that training and certification is to pass the NRSWA Operative Streetworks Course in Belper.
The purpose of the Operative Streetworks course is to enable you to perform your job as an operative in a safe and effective manner. Since NRSWA training and certification were mandated, jobsite accidents have declined by a significant degree, so there is no going back or getting around this requirement.
NRSWA Operative Streetworks Course in Belper takes place over the course of 1 day. In the morning, participants learn the whys and hows of their job, and in the afternoon, they get to practice what they've learned on a mock jobsite. At the end of the day, there is a multiple-choice exam testing retention of the information. You must answer 80% of the questions correctly in order to receive certification.
Certification will be provided by one of the following and will be valid for 5 years from the date of issue:
- City & Guilds
- The Certification and Assessment Board for the Water Industry (CABWI)
- The Scottish Qualification Authority (SQA)
- Lantra
If you fail the course, you are not out of options. You can choose to take the course again (the whole course, not just the exam). However, you will need to wait at least 48 hours to reregister, and you will need to pay the course fee in full a second time.
