Reason for the revision

 

This qualification was revised in order to correct the transition arrangements in version 2, which was registered in November 2006.

 

It was the intention of industry that trainees currently enrolled on programmes of study leading towards version 1 of this qualification, or towards the expiring National Certificate in Concrete Roof Tiling [Ref: 0312], have the option of transferring to programmes of study leading towards version 3.

 

The transition arrangements have been updated to allow for trainees to transfer.

There have been no changes to the qualification requirements.

 

Transition

 

Trainees currently enrolled on programmes of study leading towards previous versions of this qualification, or towards the expiring National Certificate in Concrete Roof Tiling [Ref: 0312], may transfer to programmes of study leading towards version 3.

 

In all other respects the arrangements detailed in version 2 of this qualification remain unchanged.
