Target Delegates
This programme is aimed at individuals who are highly experienced in lift planning and wish to obtain their CPCS Blue card in the quickest and most cost effective way.
The package is also ideal for card holders who have allowed their CPCS Red card to expire over the 12 month grace period and would like to re-enter the scheme by obtaining the CPCS Blue card in the same category.
This package is aimed at experienced delegates only and a minimum of two years experience in the discipline is recommended. Delegates must also have the ability to cope with an intensive assessment and testing process and be able to discuss their work with others.
Course Content
The assessment route comprises of two elements- the CPCS training and technical tests (theory and practical) and the Level 5 NVQ Diploma.
CPCS Appointed Person Training/ Testing
The aim of this course is to provide candidates with underpinning knowledge in order for them to understand the role and responsibility of the Appointed Person. Following successful completion of the course candidates will be able to prepare and implement safe systems of work for lifting operations including writing risk assessments and method statements. On the final day of the course delegates will sit the CPCS Technical Tests theory and practical.
Level 5 NVQ Diploma
During the five days, delegates are also required to complete the Level 5 NVQ assessment to prove their competence in the discipline. To complete this assessment delegates must be able to submit evidence of at least two lifts that they have planned and two written statements explaining how this was done (please see evidence example below). The assessment will culminate with an audio recorded discussion that aims to satisfy any un-evidenced performance criteria.
