Assessment and entry considerations
Assessment: Observed role-specific tasks in an authorised workplace or approved simulation, knowledge checks and review of a supervised protection test portfolio. Actual workplace evidence is required where the eventual award or role specifies it.
Entry and recognition: Relevant existing trade or technical competence, employer nomination and all task-specific authorisations; not an unrestricted entry-level route.
Practice boundaries: Electrical and high-voltage work is restricted to appropriately authorised personnel. Supervised training does not replace licensing, safe isolation, specialist competence or statutory testing authority.
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.
