For what is gonna help this course?whit this course can i apply for sklilled workers card?Thanks

Answer:

It outlines the theory behind the majority of painting and decorating techniques. To obtain a Skilled Workers card, you need to achieve a construction related NVQ or SVQ level 2. This does NOT qualify; it is an introductory 10 hour CPD certified course. A Level 2 NVQ would typically take months of study over hundreds of hours.

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.
