Level 3

The process starts with a two-day knowledge training course. This course will not only provide you with the knowledge and understanding to complete the written project and associated multiple-choice question test, but it will set you up for a career in health and safety in the waste management sector.

Delivered on site, you will be required to build up a portfolio of evidence to demonstrate competence, in areas relevant to your roles and responsibilities. This will include a number of assessment visits by one of our competent assessors, who will set you tasks, provide mentoring and support as well as being on hand to guide you through the process!

This qualification is assessed using variable methods of assessment, which ultimately depend on the units selected. Some units are made up of knowledge and therefor require the Learner to complete a range of knowledge questions, while other units are based around practical implementation of processes and procedures. This process would be assessed on site in the work environment to allow the Learner to demonstrate he or she has the required knowledge and skills to supervise waste activities.

This qualification has two pathways, the first being a general pathway suitable for a range of individuals such as those employed at transfer stations, HWRC's or waste collections. The second pathway is re-use, which is suitable for charity shops and other re-use facilities. Delivered on site, you will be required to build up a portfolio of evidence to demonstrate competence, in areas relevant to your roles and responsibilities.
