We provide NRSWA training for operatives and supervisors working across the utilities, highways, telecoms, groundworks, construction and infrastructure sectors.
Our nationwide training network can be particularly useful for labour agencies and subcontractors managing workers in different areas of the UK. Companies with six or more delegates can also enquire about dedicated training at their own site, helping to simplify the process of qualifying larger groups.
Group training can be arranged during the week, at weekends and, where available, during evenings, helping you organise training around placements, contracts and existing work commitments.
Successful candidates receive certification for the units completed and are registered on the Street Works Qualifications Register (SWQR), with qualifications valid for five years.
