Course details

HETA offer Level 4 NVQ's in engineering. NVQ stands for National Vocational  Qualification and is a course designed to give learners in industry a recognised certificate to formalise the skills and training they have received 'in house' by enrolling them on an NVQ. An NVQ is a great way to give employees in the workplace a work based qualification as part of their career progression and assesses the competency, skills and knowledge in the workplace.

Individuals best suited to enrol on an NVQ will already be performing a maintenance/or other engineering role and simply looking to gain certification around the existing skills they have.

The benefit for any company is to prove base line competence of their engineering team and also for the candidate to feel a valued member of the organisation.

Duration: Between 18-24  Months depending on Learner progression. Maximum Duration: 30 Months

Visits: We estimate around 7 progress reviews (Face to Face or Remote) in order to progress plus 1 practical observation. As a minimum you will hear from your assessor once every 12 weeks to keep in contact.

Structure: The NVQ consists of 14 units in total. For each of these units there will be a series of questions to answer followed by the building of a evidence based portfolio. Once sufficient evidence has been gathered, you HETA assessor will then sign the NVQ off and the certificate will be requested.
