VMZINC launches Basic Competency Programme

Story

BCP training

The continuing upsurge in use of zinc as a roofing and façade material has led VMZINC to introduce a ‘Basic Competency’ (BCP) training programme. Organised in conjunction with the CITB, Roofing Industry Alliance and FTMRC, the single-day module is linked to NVQ Level 2 and equates to the first stage of formal installer accreditation. Elements covered include roof design and construction, fitting, maintenance, tools, ancillaries and soldering. On achieving a ‘Pass’ an individual becomes eligible for a Red ‘Experienced Worker’ CSCS card if he has a ‘Working at height’ HSE test certificate. The holder has three years to register with a training provider to work towards NVQ and eligibility for a blue ‘Skilled Worker’ card. For details email  vmzinc.uk@vmzinc.com or phone 01992 822288.
