Competency Interview

Service Description

Price inc VAT Bring ID Have updated your CSCS within the last 2years This has been created as an accepted alternative to achieving the full NVQ under the Construction Leadership Council rules and is only to be used with applicants that gained CPCS Competent Operator cards via ‘Grandfather Rights’ (Industry Accreditation) and do not hold an NVQ within the family category grouping. The Competence Interview shall be conducted one-to-one with the candidate in a suitable and comfortable environment that allows uninterrupted dialogue during the interview. Interview delivery The full interview needs to be recorded electronically and can be reviewed by the applicant and CPCS Tester afterwards and kept for auditing purposes by the Awarding Organisation NOCN Group and the appointed auditing body. Testers should follow the Competence Interview Script to introduce the interview. There is no timeframe for the completion of the interview, but it should not exceed 90 minutes. 90 minutes is considered an appropriate time for a candidate to respond to the questions and relay their experiences and understanding to the CPCS Tester. The topic areas need not be delivered in any order, and naturally, explanations provided by the candidate may cover other areas in different sections. The CPCS Tester may explore that area further in order to satisfy the criteria for that topic area before subsequently returning to the original section. Grading The Competence Interview is graded as a ‘Pass’ or ‘Fail’ where a candidate will fail is an achievement is not recorded against each section. Response levels should be classified as; - not relevant/insufficient (N) - satisfactory (Y) There is no set answer, and the candidate needs to provide sufficient expertise based on their experiences within the workplace. The CPCS Tester should probe answers appropriately to draw out the candidate's experience using the guidance in the Approved Code of Delivery (ACoD) around the CPCS Theory Test. Where any responses against the criteria are judged not relevant or insufficient (N), the candidate will be required to attain further experience in those areas and be re-assessed against those areas later. The definition of a satisfactory answer is where the candidate demonstrates and articulates their experiences and understanding against each criterion and which conforms to acceptable occupational practices, legislation and good practice.
