The Level 4 NVQ Diploma in Construction Site Supervision course is a qualification that validates the skills and knowledge of a construction site supervisor. It is a nationally recognised qualification that demonstrates a high level of competency and expertise in the construction industry.
Completing this Level 4 NVQ Construction Site Supervision demonstrates to potential employers that you have the skills, knowledge, and experience required to effectively manage construction sites. This can lead to increased job opportunities, career progression, and higher salaries.
You can technically be a site supervisor without holding a Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) certification, however, depending on the specific requirements of your employer, project and legal or regulatory frameworks in place you may need to obtain a SSSTS certificate.
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (CDM 2015), employers are required to ensure that supervisors are competent and have the necessary training to fulfil their health and safety requirements. The SSSTS course is one way to demonstrate this competence.
To be eligible for the Construction Site Supervision Level 4 NVQ, you need to have the required level of experience in the construction industry, and you must be currently employed as a construction site supervisor. You also need to demonstrate that you have the required knowledge, skills, and understanding of the construction industry.
This NVQ involves a combination of on-the-job training, assessment, and portfolio building. You will be required to demonstrate your competence in various areas of construction site supervision, including managing health and safety, managing resources, monitoring progress, and maintaining quality standards.
You can refer to our helpful Level 4 NVQ Diploma in Construction Site Supervision Evidence Examples list to get a better idea of the types of naturally occurring documentation you can use to support your NVQ. You can download the evidence example here.
Yes, you can be eligible for the CSCS Gold Supervisor card (Pathway 1) as long as you have completed the relevant CITB Health and Safety Test within 2 years of applying for the card.
For CCDO Gold Supervisor card (Pathway 2) please check the CCDO card page for more information on additional requirements.
If you have recently lost your CSCS Gold Card due to Industry Accreditation Withdrawal and you are actively working as a site supervisor, this is the level 4 qualification NVQ for you.
SSSTS certifications alone are insufficient to apply for a CSCS card. To obtain a CSCS card, you must complete a relevant NVQ at a high enough level for the specific card you are looking for. Site supervisors hold a CSCS Gold Supervisor card to help prove competence and experience.
The Construction Leadership Council recommends the SSSTS course in addition to NVQs, to ensure an extensive understanding of the relevant health, safety, and legal regulations. The CSCS Gold Supervisor card requires the Specialist supervisory (SUP) HS&E test, as well as the Level 4 Construction Site Supervision NVQ.
