🎓 Building Our Skills and NOCN launch new industry qualifications 🎓

Building Our Skills - Making Fenestration A Career of Choice has announced the launch of new Installation and Surveying Qualifications for the Fenestration, Glass and Glazing industry by NOCN Group.

The qualifications launched at the start of August were: NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Fenestration Installation, and NVQ Level 3 Certificate in Fenestration Surveying.

Building Our Skills has championed the development of new qualifications for the industry following extensive consultation with and collaboration from leading players in the industry.

Speaking for Building Our Skills, Director Chris Globe said: “we were delighted to announce our partnership with NOCN earlier in the year, and are even more delighted now to formally launch the first phase of their new set of Qualifications for the industry."

Speaking for NOCN Group, Laura Randall, Head of Business Development said: “as one of the biggest construction Awarding Organisations in the UK with over 500 construction qualifications, it makes complete sense for us to also offer the fullest range of qualifications for the Fenestration, Glass and Glazing industry, a sector whose products are integral to all build projects.

“Our partnership with Building Our Skills provides the perfect platform for us to do this."
