Hi,
Does anybody know if a completed NVQ,but not a city and guilds NVQ is valid when you get your skills assessed?
The reason i ask is because i've seen a city and guilds NVQ 2 offered at one college but a closer more convenient college is offering a NVQ 2 without any mention of city and guilds.
Thanks for any help,
Andy

hello just been reading your thread i didnt know ther was a difference im doing city and guilds level2 nvq, in hairdressing hopefully someone on hear can give us some answers what are you studying or studied




i

Considering welding,just want to pick the right courses and not waste any time as it will be a very long process anyway.

Hi NVQ's have several awarding bodies including City & Guilds the NVQ stands by its self irrespective of the awarding body. Regards Dolly

Hi,

I think you may have to do a NVQ 111 to qualify for getting your skills assessed. Hopefully someone else will know for sure.

cheers

Thanks for the replies,yeah you're right about needing the NVQ to be a level 3 in welding,but most trades seem to be a level 2 as that is the equivalent to an Australian level III diploma.

im currently on level 2 nvq hairdressing and hope to go to level three next year can anyone tell me if u need to do level three hairdressing
cheers

no you dont need level 3 a qualified hairdresser to level 2 with 6 years experience is sufficient
