The Assessors:
With a range of trades and specialties within the construction industry, they will meet your operatives on site, work very closely with them to ensure they provide the evidence and consistently prove their competence in what they do in their job every day. The assessors will photograph, document and record the operatives doing their job, resulting in minimum down time. The end result of the NVQ process will enable your staff to hold a qualification for what they do for you, an NVQ and a CSCS card enabling you as a company to demonstrate to your clients the competence and qualifications of your staff.

The Admin Team:
Andrea Hodges, Rachael Snell, Barrie Worth and Camilla Strawbridge. It is this team that enables all we do as SWH Training to work effectively and efficiently, resulting in you the customer getting what you want. They will help you to book courses, discuss the various funding initiatives that may be available to you, help you register for CSCS or CPCS, and generally take the hassle and confusion out of the paperwork which qualifying the workforce generates.
