  1. Training & Accreditation STREETWORKS 2005 Phil Burnett – HAUC Training and Accreditation Working Party Thursday 19th May 2005

  2. Training & Accreditation Working Party • Established in 1992 following introduction of the New Roads & Street Works Act • Role….to develop appropriate assessment and training processes to facilitate compliance • Membership…..representatives from the major Utilities and Local Authorities • Close liaison with the Awarding Bodies and the Street Works Registrar • Change is on the way……..

  3. Registration – Why Change • Since the introduction of the NRSWA requiring people to be registered, this has been a once only assessment of competence. • A registration lasts for 5 years and can be renewed easily by providing a new photograph….together with the correct fee! • This creates problems……eg. • Changes in the Reinstatement Specification • Code of Practice for SLG amended • Lack of practice leads to degraded competence

  4. Some Method of Re-Assessment • Options are….. • Full re-assessment including practical and theory • Knowledge based re-assessment • Do nothing! • Knowledge based assessment agreed • Piloted in 2004 across a number of centres • Need for refresher training • Awarding Bodies could launch later this year

  5. Implementation • Need for amendment to Legislation to require re-assessment and to bring Unit 2 (SLG) into the categories requiring registration • Regulatory Impact Assessment will follow • Earliest date for launch likely to be Jan 2006 • Communication programme planned to ensure all those affected are aware of the new scheme • Proposal to provide a window of six months (3+3 on either side of expiry)
