“However, being a qualifi ed assessor isn’t just about working in a local FE college,” said Rattray. “Businesses can also benefi t from having trades assessors in-house for a variety of assessment requirements.?
“End Point Assessment Organisations (EPAOs)
are always looking for qualifi ed assessors and quality assurance personnel, as are private training providers.? So, individuals have lots of diff erent ways to ‘give something back’ that will be of premium value to the industry and themselves.” In partnership with the education sector, BESA is using NAW 2025 to launch a recruitment scheme to sign up candidates for the Programme. It will also create an assessor register and work with educators and employers to celebrate those who complete the programme before embarking on their crucial role in helping a new generation of apprentices. The FE provider will deliver training to become an assessor/trainer via a ‘hybrid’ remote and in- person format. Upon completing the course, the candidate will be added to the BESA Assessor Register and will be on a waiting list for their geographical area. They will then be allocated to their nearest BESA partner training provider.
“Without recruiting more trainers and assessors, we simply cannot address the skills shortages that building services employers say are the biggest threat to their businesses,” said Rattray. “This initiative is, therefore, urgently needed. “Engineers often undervalue their own
knowledge and experience because it might come
naturally to them, but by off ering to share it with a whole new generation, they will be making an enormous contribution to the advancement of our industry, a new cohort of apprentices, and to the future of our built environment.” For more information about joining this initiative, go to the Skills Legacy Programme page.
