Entry and recognition: Preparation only. Select the method, level, industrial sector and certification route before booking. Required training, documented experience, vision eligibility, examinations and employer authorisation must be checked separately; these proposed hours are not asserted to satisfy a certification scheme. The proposed timetable is preparation support, not a declaration that all certification training or experience requirements are met.
Duration basis: Proposed BEMCON taught duration; not an official qualification requirement
