The two associations have signed a recognition deed to set out the terms in which SELECT members can apply for the BESCA CPS.

SELECT members will be subject to an exclusive application process involving an initial document and technical review by BESCA. Members will also benefit from reduced BESCA scheme fees and fast track membership due to technical requirements of the scheme being met by SELECT’s technical competence assessment of the member. BESCA’s director of certification, Rachel Davidson, said: “We are delighted to finalise this collaboration. Both our organisations will reap the benefits of this great new partnership.”
