Membership doubles
in just 12 months
Network VEKA is delighted that the UKAS-accredited Assure Competent
Persons Scheme has doubled in size over the last year.
The scheme, which is open to any
installer, has grown rapidly as it
continues to receive a constant
stream of applications from
installers looking to join their
first competent persons scheme,
or installers who have become
dissatisfied with their current
operator.
Feedback shows that members find
Assure a straightforward and cost-effective route to compliance, with Building
Regulation notification and the fact that
installers and surveyors can quickly
take their MTC assessments.
Austin Greene, Technical and Compliance Manager for Network VEKA’s Assure,
explains, “Many new members have told us
they had become unsatisfied with their existing competent persons scheme providers.
“Here at Assure, we strive to make the
whole process simple and straightforward,
which our installers really appreciate. We
offer all the training, seminars and advice
you would expect to make sure everything
runs smoothly for our installers. Members seem to appreciate the regular CPD
bulletins keeping them updated about
regulations and other issues affecting their
work.”
Members of the Assure scheme can take
advantage of a wide range of benefits,
including: registration of installations with
Local Authorities, MTC assessments for
installers and surveyors, CPD (Continuous
Professional Development) seminars and
bulletins, energy ratings calculators, GQA
accredited ID cards and Building Regulation
Compliance certificates sent direct to their
customers as well as benefitting from a dedicated Technical and Arbitration helpline.
Assure members also have access to Insurance-Backed Guarantees, Green Deal Certification and Level 2 NVQ Qualifications, as
well as Assure-branded literature.
