Heating and Ventilation News Academic Card will allow site access for students without on-the-job experience
BESA has announced a SKILLcard for engineers with degrees and other higher-level qualifications. The Academically Qualified Person (AQP) card has been developed so graduates can visit construction sites to help them gain more practical experience.
SKILLcard, part of the construction-wide CSCS scheme, is used by heating, ventilating, air conditioning and refrigeration operatives to provide proof of qualifications, skills and experience.
It already offers a Professionally Qualified Person (PQP) card, but this requires a certain level of industry experience. The new AQP card will enable graduate engineers and those holding further education qualifications such as HNDs and HNCs to provide evidence of their qualifications including the health & safety training needed to be allowed on site.
