NEED TO WORK ON CONSTRUCTION SITES?
IAgrE Technician members eligible for qualification card
 
CSCS) Professionally Qualified Person (PQP) card.
With many dealers selling manufacturers' construction equipment, or needing to service ag machinery used in and around construction sites, the Institution of Agricultural Engineers (IAgrE) have announced that its members qualify for the Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) Professionally Qualified Person (PQP) card.
 
This card is valid for five years, and applicants must pass the CITB Managers and Professionals Health, Safety and Environment Test that certifies that the holder is a qualified member of an approved professional body, and has the skills and knowledge required to work on a construction site without special supervision, even if they are not typically based on the site.
 
Applicants need to supply proof that they hold current membership of the professional body at a level accepted by CSCS.
 
The most convenient way to apply for a CSCS card is via the Official site for the Construction Skills Certification Scheme application service. 
 
This would appear to be applicable to those who hold the Technician grade of IAgrE Membership which is for those who are qualified at a vocational or technical level or have completed an apprenticeship or extended diploma.
 
This grade may include farm machinery service engineers, people working in precision farming and soil science working as technicians, instructors and trainers. The postnominal TIAgrE is permitted at this grade.
 
Candidates will have a minimum technical education to at least Level 2 in Agricultural Engineering or an equivalent landbased, scientific, or environmental subject and are established in employment in a vocational and/or technical role.
 
Further details or for an application form contact Alison membership@iagre.org or 01234 750876.
