SCQF Level 5
INTRODUCTION
This nationally recognised construction qualification is designed for groundworkers engaged in construction and civil engineering activities, such as preparing sites and laying the groundwork for structures.
Applicants should currently be employed in a role that involves civil engineering tasks, with regular access to real work activities, tools, and equipment used in construction and engineering operations. They must also be able to demonstrate their competence on-site through both practical performance and theoretical knowledge.
To enrol, candidates must have at least six months of on-site experience performing construction and civil engineering duties.
Upon successful completion of the SCQF Level 5 Construction and Civil Engineering Operations, candidates are eligible to apply for the CSCS Blue Skilled Worker card, provided they also hold a valid (in-date) CITB Health, Safety and Environment (CSCS touchscreen) test.
This qualification supports career progression into advanced roles within construction and civil engineering operations and can be a stepping stone towards supervisory or managerial positions in the construction industry.
You will have your own dedicated assessor, who will support and assist you throughout your qualification. Our Assessors are fully committed to helping you at every stage of your qualification. Your assessor will give guidance, whilst you build your own portfolio of evidence and knowledge tasks, while carrying out your day-to-day work activities.

With S/NVQ's, they can be completed at a pace that suits you. Completion is dependant on the commitment and motivation of the candidate. You can complete the qualification in as little as 2-3 months, although we will provide you with full support for up to 12 months.
