This Level 5 NVQ has been developed by practising construction managers, supported by the relevant professional institutions, employers’ bodies and the Construction Industry Council. The qualification has been designed to be used across the UK.
This award is the first revision and development of the original Level 5 NVQ/SVQ in Construction Contracts Management.
In place of this single award, the new NVQ/SVQ is designed on a "core and options" basis to serve all Level 5 construction managers, reflecting the current industry focus on changes brought about by ‘Constructing the Team’, ‘Rethinking Construction’ and subsequent initiatives.
This award is relevant to all those practitioners in the sector who are working in a policy-making, director or middle/senior management capacity and is designed to apply across all four UK countries.
The achievement of the award requires the candidate to compile evidence of competence and responsibilities. This includes a demonstration of appropriate levels of knowledge and understanding and in this context relevant academic qualification could contribute.
