Fully Funded Level 3 NVQs
Portland Training’s Free Courses for Jobs initiative is a part of the UK’s Plan for Jobs, backed by the Government, with a clear mission to support individuals in enhancing their job prospects and contribute to the growth of the economy through valuable skill development.
Our program is designed to empower adults in the construction industry with the necessary training and new skill sets to further their potential and progress in their career.
If you’re 24 years or older and currently lack a level 3 qualification or higher, you may be eligible to access a free level 3 qualification. Level 3 qualifications are equivalent to advanced technical certificates, diplomas, or A levels, opening doors to exciting career opportunities.
Unlock your potential, expand your horizons, and take advantage of the Free Courses for Jobs to pave the way towards a brighter future.
Level 3 Construction NVQs are nationally recognised qualifications that focus on developing the competencies required for various roles within the construction industry. These qualifications offer a practical approach to learning, allowing individuals to showcase their skills through on-site assessments and portfolio submissions. Level 3 NVQs are an excellent choice for those seeking to enhance their career prospects or progress to higher-level qualifications.
Course Structure
The structure of Level 3 Construction NVQs may vary depending on the specific trade or discipline chosen. However, all NVQs at this level follow a competency-based approach, assessing practical skills and knowledge in real construction site scenarios. The emphasis is on demonstrating competence rather than traditional classroom-based learning.
