SPARKSAFE ARRIVES ON THE MAINLAND

I saw the announcement at the Elex show in Harrogate that NAPIT had formed a partnership with Sparksafe. I assume all NAPIT registered contractors will gain automatic status for the License to Practice without needing the qualifications for direct membership?

I did hear that a well known rail contractor walked away from a contract as they did not have enough operatives that met the LtP criteria.

I am thinking that if it did gain traction a lot of contractors would be in the brown stuff as they would no longer be able to use cheap unqualified labour.

Google Sparksafe to see what it is all about. They don't seem to have many members at the moment.

My God! It's easier to become a doctor or a lawyer. Do your training (a degree); then do your apprenticeship (foundation years/pupillage/etc.) then pay your registration fee.

You might than have to do annual appraisals, but nobody actually inspects your work. ?

The Law Society requires its members to report Continuous Competence every year https://www.lawsociety.org.uk/support-services/advice/articles/continuing-competence-guidance-faqs/

The General Medical Council requires its members to report CPD (Continuous Professional Development) every year as well https://www.gmc-uk.org/education/standards-guidance-and-curricula/guidance/continuing-professional-development

Quite so, but a surgeon does not have to do any work with an assessor peering over his shoulder or otherwise reviewing his handiwork.
