NRSWA - Street Works - Supervisors

Course review:

Our New Roads and Street Works Awards (NRSWA) are awarded by SQA which is one of the leading awarding organisations in the UK.

“Under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (NRSW) all operational and supervisory staff who install, renew, maintain or inspect underground apparatus on the roads and highways are required to be qualified and register for a Street Works Card... Workers are required to be reassessed every five years to renew their Street Works Card”

We offer all of the Supervisor's Units, 1 & 10-16, which then combine together to give 6 different Street Works awards. We also offer all of the Street Works Awards for Operatives & the Re-assessment awards.
