The next section only applies to Centres looking to offer GQA Construction qualifications and the associated H&S test and CSCS Crad for Labourers
| Essential information if the Centre is applying to offer the GQA Level 1 Award in Construction Health and Safety and is not delivering exclusively into the HMP Sector or similar |
| By completing and returning this pre-application form, I acknowledge that I will not be able to offer the GQA H&S test and the Green CSCS card for Construction Site Labourers and accept that if the application reaches the approval stage, not accepting this clause will result in the application being terminated and the approval fee will still apply. Please note, if you are approved to offer our qualifications, our stance on the Green card will be reviewed on the anniversary of your approval, but there are no guarantees the decision will change. |
