I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Mark and the entire team at Workforce Skills for the outstanding training and support provided throughout my Level 7 NVQ in Senior Site Management. From start to finish, the process was handled with professionalism, clarity, and a consistently high standard of delivery.

The Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Cladding Occupations (Construction) is a vocational qualification for individuals working with wall cladding systems. It assesses your competence in the installation, maintenance, and related tasks for wall sheeting cladding and rainscreen wall cladding systems based on real workplace performance.
This NVQ is designed for operatives and specialists who work in cladding occupations, including wall sheeting installers, cladding system operatives, and rainscreen wall cladding technicians who want formal recognition of their advanced practical skills.
The NVQ cost can vary. Please see our payment options.
There are no formal academic entry requirements. However, to complete the NVQ you must already be working in a relevant cladding role so you can provide real workplace evidence of your practical competence for assessment. Relevant industry experience is essential.
Assessment is workplace-based and involves observation of your practical work by a qualified assessor, professional discussions, written assignments where required, and the compilation of a portfolio of evidence demonstrating your competence against the national occupational standards for cladding. This may include on-site observations and review of job records showing your performance in real tasks.
