But now I'm getting asked for proof of my skills and qualifications by some contractors. I don't want to go to college at my age - what can I do?</strong>

Luckily, this is a common problem in the construction industry, and there are two routes to help you get qualified.

]]>
      <![CDATA[<strong>On-Site Assessment and Training (OSAT)</strong>
This helps experienced workers get the qualifications to prove they can do the job. It turns your existing skills and experience into a nationally recognised qualification such as an NVQ or SVQ. 

The whole process is carried out through a number of visits on site so you don't have to take time off to go to college.

This also helps you qualify for a Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) card - important if you want to work on big construction projects. 

For more information about OSAT, visit <a href="http://www.cskills.org/traininglearning/trainingqualifications/onsiteassessmenttraining/">the OSAT section</a>of the ConstructionSkills website.

<strong>Experienced Worker Practical Assessment (EWPA)</strong>
This is a fast route through the ConstructionSkills/City & Guilds awarding body. It is available for workers with a minimum of five years experience and who don’t need any further training. 

It involves spending a day having your skills and knowledge assessed at an off-site location, normally your NVQ centre. This can sometimes be done at weekends.

All the skills needed to pass the NVQ are included in one task, which is observed by an approved assessor.  It is currently only available for certain trades.

For 4 quick and easy steps to EWPA, visit <a href="http://www.cskills.org/traininglearning/trainingqualifications/gettingqualifiedwithexperiencedworkerpracticalassessment/">the EWPA section</a> of the Construction Skills website.

<strong>Which one is right for you?</strong> 
The SkillsDirect helpline, set up to assist construction workers who want to get qualified, will be able to advise you. Call 0870 850 5262 to get started.

      <![CDATA[<img alt="Scaffolding.jpg" src="http://www.buildersbox.co.uk/blogs/builders-skills/Scaffolding.jpg" align=left hspace=10 vspace=10 width="150" height="150" />Scaffolders have one of the most important jobs in construction. Scaffolding provides the platform for many other workers to reach the parts of the structure they're working on.

Scaffolding is usually made of metal tubes, fittings, and metal or timber platforms, and putting this together is a very skilled job. Safety is everything - both for the people working on it and below!]]>
      <![CDATA[<strong>Are you suited to a career as a scaffolder?</strong>

One thing you'll certainly need if you're training to be a scaffolder is a head for heights! You will also have to work quickly and accurately out of doors, in all kinds of conditions.

A lot of demands are put on scaffolders, as they are often the first people on site, and a lot of the work has to wait until the scaffolding has been erected. And remember, the safety of many others will depend on your work.

<strong>Entry requirements</strong>

There are no specific academic requirements to train as scaffolder, although GCSE passes / Standard Grades in Maths, English and Technology will be helpful for the calculations, measurements and theory.

Training follows the <a href="http://www.citb-constructionskills.co.uk/cardschemes/whatcardschemesareavailable/certificationschemes/cisrs.asp">Construction Industry Scaffolder's Record Scheme (CISRS)</a> through three routes:
<li>A 2-week induction scheme at ConstructionSkills followed by on-site work and training towards NVQ/SVQ Level 2.
<li>A 42-week full time course at a National Construction College. This includes on-site work experience and leads the achievement of the Basic and Advanced Card, on completion of NVQ/SVQ Levels 2 and 3.
<li>5 years practical experience, a one week assessment and completion of NVQ/SVQ Level 2.
An apprenticeship for this job is available at the National Construction College. 

<strong>Prospects for scaffolders</strong>

Choose a career in scaffolding and you will always be in demand. If you gain enough experience as a scaffolder, you'll be in a very good position to start up your own business. There is also a good grounding for progression into technical, supervisory and managerial roles. You should get the opportunity to travel around, and sometimes work overseas. 

<strong>Pay for scaffolders</strong>

Wages are set by the Construction Industry Joint Council. The latest rates can be viewed on <a href="http://www.ucatt.org.uk/Indnews_pri.htm#twoa">the UCATT website</a>. The current weekly craft rate is £379.08, based on a 39-hour week. The basic wage can be boosted with the incentive schemes that many companies offer. Technical, supervisory and managerial roles pay better still.

I've had an application from a female candidate, and I don't want to sounds sexist, but is it really a suitable job for a woman? What would I need to provide for her if I did take her on? </strong>

If the candidate has passed the initial tests, for example if she’s come to you through the <a href="http://www.citb.co.uk/traininglearning/trainingqualifications/apprenticeships/apprenticeship/employinganapprentice/apprenticeshipscheme.asp">ConstructionSkills Apprenticeship Scheme</a>, then you know she’s capable of doing the job.

]]>
      <![CDATA[I can understand your concern though, as traditionally the craft trades have been almost exclusively male. 

However it would make bad business sense to turn away almost 50 per cent of the workforce because they are female, especially when the industry needs 87,600 new recruits a year to meet demand.

There are other business benefits to recruiting a diverse workforce. Client expectations are changing and you can gain a competitive advantage by showing that you take an enlightened approach to training.

This is especially true in the public sector, where contractors have to demonstrate equal opportunities recruitment. The public sector commissions more than £30billion of construction work annually so it is worth taking them into consideration.

One construction client, John Bryson of Notting Hill Housing Trust, explains: “When we need refurbishment jobs in people’s homes we find that elderly people and lone parents prefer to have a woman in their home.”

Many companies are already reaping the business benefits of recruiting a diverse workforce, and it sounds like you could soon be one of them. Why not contact a Construction Skills Diversity Advisor to talk through some of the concerns that you have?
