Get 2 Level 3 NVQs At A Significantly Reduced Package Price

Limited Time Offer – Get 2 Level 3 NVQs at a significantly reduced package price!

With ongoing changes to CITB funding and increasing pressure on training budgets, construction employers are looking for smarter, more cost-effective ways to upskill their workforce.

At Workforce Skills Support, we have developed a range of funding-optimised NVQ packages designed specifically for levy-registered and non-levy organisations operating within the plant and machinery maintenance sector.

This exclusive dual-qualification package allows eligible learners to achieve two Level 3 NVQs concurrently, for a net cost from as little as £1,700, when both qualifications are assessed at the same time.

What’s Included in the Package

1 × Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Construction Plant or Machinery Maintenance
1 × Level 3 Diploma in Testing, Inspection and Thorough Examination (Construction)
Pathway 1 – Testing, Inspecting and Thorough Examination of Plant, Machinery, Equipment or Accessories

Both qualifications are:

Designed for occupationally competent professionals
Assessed in the workplace
Fully supported by a qualified and accredited NVQ assessor

Benefits of Holding Both Level 3 NVQ Diplomas

1. Wider Professional Competence

Holding both qualifications demonstrates full competence in:

Maintaining and repairing construction plant and machinery
Legally testing, inspecting, and carrying out thorough examinations

This confirms you can not only repair equipment, but also verify its safety, compliance, and fitness for use.

2. Stronger Legal & Compliance Capability

The Testing, Inspection and Thorough Examination qualification confirms competence against:

LOLER
PUWER
Health and Safety Executive expectations

When combined with plant or machinery maintenance, this significantly reduces risk for employers by ensuring both mechanical integrity and statutory compliance are met.

Will I Save Money by Doing Both Qualifications at the Same Time?

Yes — significantly.

Why is this package so heavily discounted?

To keep costs low, our assessors deliver both qualifications concurrently, combining assessments and evidence where permitted. For this reason, both NVQs must be undertaken at the same time to qualify for the package price.
