Review of Joinery qualification
National Certificate in Joinery (Aluminium Fabrication) [Ref: 0389]
The Joinery Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the qualification above.
Date new version published November 2010
Summary of review and consultation process
To clear up a historical anomaly, Competenz agreed to transfer responsibility for the Architectural Aluminium Joinery domain to the Joinery Industry Training Organisation as it is more appropriate to their area of standard setting responsibility.
As part of the transfer of responsibility it was noted that the qualification above was already registered by the Joinery Industry Training Organisation but had not had support from industry. The sector had not considered the qualification fit for purpose and, instead, had been using the qualifications developed by Competenz in the architectural aluminium joinery area, meaning the qualification had never been awarded. For this reason this qualification has been designated expiring without replacement.
Main changes resulting from the review
The qualification has been designated expiring and will not be replaced.
