NPORS Training
QST is one of the UK’s Top NPORS training providers specialising in the construction industry.
What is NPORS: The Accreditation and Registration Powerhouse of the UK
The National Plant Operators Registration Scheme (NPORS) has emerged as a major player in the UK’s plant training sector. With its focus on flexibility and on-site training, NPORS has been steadily gaining popularity among construction firms and industry leaders like BuildUK. While not as well-known as other training schemes like CPCS, NPORS has been improving steadily over the years and has garnered a reputation for quality and excellence.
One of the most significant advantages of NPORS training is its flexibility. Unlike other training schemes, NPORS offers on-site training, making it easier for operators to learn and get certified while working. Additionally, NPORS has aligned itself with the CSCS, allowing for training cards to be embossed with the CSCS logo, providing added credibility to the certification. NPORS also offers operators the chance to progress their skills and competency with Trained Operator and Experienced Operator cards, which can be earned through an NVQ. This means that operators can continue to grow and develop their skills throughout their carer.
