THE NEW FENSA
TRAINING ACADEMY:
NVQ up to Level 7 with
No Classrooms, No Exams
» IN A POSITIVE RESPONSE
to the coronavirus pandemic
and the restrictions imposed to
curb the disease, FENSA has
re-launched its FENSA Training
Academy in partnership with
industry training experts Total
Support Training. The scheme,
which provides pathways to
NVQ qualifications from Level 1
through to Level 7 in a variety of
skills, in addition to a number of
short courses covering a variety
of glazing related subjects, is now
available fully online, with no
requirement to attend classes or
examinations.
The training experts behind
the scheme will conduct remote
assessments carried out by
evidence submission via email.
Participants are asked to respond
to the task emails by answering
questions, taking pictures and
submitting documents in their
own time as well as phone
assessments with assessors to
discuss the tasks as and when
needed.
Tasks are designed to be
completed in the participant’s
own time and may be carried
out at home and in the evening,
minimising the impact on work
schedules. Courses have been
designed to ensure there is no
impact on work and business
schedules, whilst allowing
Van Tay Media
participants to further their
competency and improve their
formal qualifications.
Chris Beedel, FENSA Director
of Membership said: “The
FENSA Training Academy has
an excellent record of improving
skills and business prospects
over many years, for hundreds
of window and door installers
throughout the UK. We have
now revamped and adapted the
Academy to suit the current
business environment to ensure
this continues, providing further
much needed support for FENSA
Approved Installers.”
Sharon Alderton, Managing
Director of Total Support
Training said: “With the recent
measures put in place by the
government due to COVID-19
the team have been working
hard to create new remote
training for both our NVQs and
Short Courses to allow people
to keep training no matter the
circumstances as well as making
them accessible for everyone. We
have made sure that although the
method of delivery has changed,
the standard has not dropped.”
