NVQs for Employers

To ensure that your company remains competitive and productive, and more importantly able to respond to changing demands in your business sector, it is essential that your staff can do their job effectively and efficiently.

A National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) through the North East Chamber of Commerce provides your staff with a flexible way to learn without disrupting your vital business operations.

What is an NVQ?

NVQs are hands-on qualifications that your staff can achieve while they work.

They are competency based so you can rest assured that they will equip your staff with hands-on training to national standards. Because they are work-based, there are no exams to sit or colleges to attend - it's flexible enough to fit in with their work schedules with no disruption to your vital business operations.

NVQs provide:

• Evidence your staff can do their job.
• Help with promotion and identify your supervisors and managers of the future.
• Your staff with enhanced skills and knowledge, which means that they are more productive.

NVQs are available for almost all industries including: construction; engineering; manufacturing; transport; health, social care and protective services; business services; and communication.
