Certass is out to skill-up the industry with the launch of its new Glazing Competency Portal.
The organisation’s MTC Continuum Card Holders can give their installers and site operatives free access to bite-size training sessions where they can top up their technical knowledge and prove their competency with certificates and award badges.
The PORTAL is initially being launched with eight free courses, ranging from Covid Secure working practices to Building Regulations. All the courses are supported by technical guides.
Managing Director Jason Clemmit said: “The skills gap is a big issue for our sector, and this new portal is providing the right technical knowledge for installers, through quick and easy learning, that can be done online whenever is convenient for them.
“This is the first phase of a training package we are building to support our membership and raise standards across the industry. All courses will be digital, so that information can be kept up-to-date with all the regulation changes which are coming in 2021. It puts Certass members ahead of the game.”
Certass has developed the Glazing Competency Portal in conjunction with the Ofqual-approved SSID Awarding, the awarding organisation.
