Hope all is going well Paul.

If you want the card just make sure that you apply for it before the July 1st deadline as then you wont need to do the H&S course.

Cheers

passed the test last month have not bothered sending off for the card yet, if you are doing the test download the app its loads cheaper than the revision books

Snap!! Passed the test but never sent it off

Why would you do the test and not get the card ???? You don't have to fill out any forms you just call and give them your number and pay the £30.00 and they will post it to you

Same old story promised loads of work if I get the card done the test and it all turned out to be bs before I had chance to get the card

Surely better to have the card than not though ? Thats if you want or need to do site work.

I am just finishing my nvq level 2 in Window fitting will it affect what card I get ?

 

[Gazzer]

Wouldnt you get 2 cards for each trade ?

 

[prceramics]

I have no qualifications in tiling apart from a c&g so it would just be a green card

Will EWPA still be an option? If so those without NVQs that have been tiling for 5+ years can do the assessment and get the blue card.
