Course programme
Van Hee currently provides training and assessment to achieve National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ). The NVQ is based on the capability of the individual to do a job.
Competence is assessed through observation of practical work supported by oral questioning and project work against nationally recognised standards developed by industry.
NVQ’s differ from more traditional forms of qualifications in that they are not time served and there are no formal examinations involved in their achievement, therefore the more effort that is put in by the candidate, the faster they can complete the qualification and become qualified.
Structure of the qualification
The Specialist Plant and Machinery NVQ Level 2 consists of
4 Mandatory Units and 1 Optional Unit.
All units are required to achieve the qualification.
