Course overview

On Site Assessment and Training (OSAT) is a process which enables the experienced worker to achieve National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ).

Everything related to the OSAT is usually done online in your own time and on-site at your place of work; meaning you don’t come into college and the college doesn’t directly teach you anything, we assume you already know it or have made arrangements for work colleague(s) to teach you.

The OSAT process will enable you/your staff to profile your/their skills against the list of skills recognised by the industry. Suitable evidence is then gathered as part of an independent NVQ assessment of their skills.

An NVQ combined with an up to date Health & Safety test is also the route for the Construction Skills Certificate Scheme (CSCS) card.
