OP
Hi,
Yeah I spoke to someone i deal with there yesterday to. Basically they cant offer me anything but an nvq course, cant go live with them til thats completed.
On further discussion with them it was admitted they have ''Thousands'' of members/applicants in the same boat. Both previous members and new applicants who have every ticket going except the nvq/am2, years of experience & previously allowed under grandfather rights by proving competence, but missed the deadline. Their was provision for lesser qualified members to extend membership or get in before that, with no conditions on attaining further qualifications. However no allowance was made for time served applicants who missed the deadline, to gain membership on the condition the nvq part was attained, which I was already looking at doing.
I have found this previous this on a previous thread from 2017, still looks to be valid. Spoke to Napit about this also, they are well aware of it as a perfectly valid option for sparx who didn't want to join a scheme etc.
I am now going down this route, still going to do the NVQ but may well end up not joining a scheme at the end, I am pretty ----ed off with the whole thing at the moment. The powers that be have got it wrong on so many levels.
Many thanks for trying anyway.
