what qualifications?

[fuzzy]

to be a workplace recorder you need either 5 years experience or be qualified to level 2 NVQ

you dont need to be qualified to take a trainee plumber though, thats my point, the college can do all (+the normal ones) the assessments or you can use others to be the workplace recorder

I think with SNIPEF anyway you need to have 5 years experience and SVQ3 to take on an apprentice

Northern Ireland just need employee liability insurance

you could be right, im not 100% sure, i just dont/didnt see why you needed anything if your working as a plumber as you may be brill but never done your own quals. I only know what a workplace recorder needs.

i know this is only for snipef to do the apprenticeship but if you werent a member of snipef you could still probably train an apprentice just dont get the help SNIPEF give you

makes sense. so this month when i complete my nvq i can take someone on straight away, having minimal plumbing experience ?

 

[GQuigley67]

your apprenticeship 5 years ?? thats a long apprenticeship

it may be 5 years post qualification experience. it is to assess a trade anyway

maybe tamz can clarify he's a member of SNIPEF, although this is a scottish and northern ireland employers federation doesnt cover england or whales, incase any one reading doesnt know and gets confused.
