- Create a comparative non-destructive examination portfolio for supervisor review and practical workplace follow-up.
- Support more consistent reporting boundaries through assessed practice and documented feedback.
Assessment and entry considerations
Assessment: Observed role-specific tasks in an authorised workplace or approved simulation, knowledge checks and review of a comparative non-destructive examination portfolio. Actual workplace evidence is required where the eventual award or role specifies it.
Entry and recognition: Initial role-suitability, literacy and numeracy assessment; access to required practice resources and qualified supervision. Additional local entry conditions must be checked.
Practice boundaries: Test acceptance and product release require an approved method, competent supervision and assigned authority. Specialised examination may require separate certification, experience, vision tests and examinations; radiation work is restricted.
Credential status: Proposed BEMCON programme only. No registered award, framework level, credit value or external certification is assigned.
Duration basis: Original curriculum-planning estimate, not an official prescribed qualification duration. The approved qualification specification, entry assessment and mandatory placement requirements take precedence.
