Hello there R 12 modules & each cost £325.But I also hold a current smsts cert so how much in total of the modules do I do & how much in total cost ?
Answer:
Hi Tobias,
Thank you for your enquiry. The course contents total 12 modules however at the successful completion of four modules you will be awarded Certificate in Site Management which is accepted as a qualification to gain the CSCS black card. If you hold a valid SMSTS certificate you can obtain a unit exemption, so you need to pay only three modules to gain Certificate award and only eleven modules to gain Diploma award. You can pay module by module at Reed.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.
An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
