NAPIT Certification Scheme Napit competence assessment 2day assessment

[Des 56]

If you have removed the shackles of a scheme once you must have good reason to want to look yourself back into that system again

I thought the new joining criteria for these schemes included acceptance of Qs status if it was in the last 2 years
If I am not typing dribble maybe your assessment was not really required this time

Yes I do. Just wanted to know if there was anything to look out for on the practical assessment

If you have NVQ3 and 17th regs then all they might want is an Insp/Test qual. Would your £££'s not be better spent on that. They can't take that off you every 5 years then.

Is this honestly how napit work? makes me lol

Im with elecsa and im assessed every single year ... I have been a QS within the last 2years before i went it alone when my dad retired, i have all the qualifcations required ... so napit would take me on without seeing any practical work what so ever? haha how sad.

We all know that any dummy can get qualifications these days so how would napit know im competent without seeing my work?

I'm fairly sure this isn't how it works. He will have his yearly NAPIT assessment, as you would Elecsa, but before he can be accepted on to the scheme he has to be assessed first as he doesn't have the required qualifications.

As above really. He will still be annually visited and assessed, this is just regarding the qual requirements.

I thought ELECSA/NIC etc were moving towards a longer period between assessment visits now?

On my last NAPIT assessment he said if you have clean assessment with no non-compliances then they are looking to go to bi-annual assessments. I had no non-compliances so will see this year what happens.

Are they charging any less if you are compliant?

Right, i mis-read the previous posts granted ... which is a relief.

But i'll be extremley suprised if any of the scams reduce fee's for any reason lol Pigs will fly surely.

I totally agree! It's highly unlikely...however, if you have been compliant and therefore don't need an assessment every year, surely the amount paid for the second year should be reduced accordingly?
