This is a five day short course designed to support the knowledge base of the Spectator Safety Management Level 4 NVQ qualification accredited by City & Guilds.  It is primarily designed for those who need the qualification, but applies equally to those who wish to develop their knowledge. If you only do the course, you can decide later to do the qualification, however you must complete the qualification within 2 years of attending the course.

A National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) is a qualification that recognises the competence of a person in a work situation. Unlike traditional qualifications that rely on teaching and examinations, NVQs use performance on the job as a basis for assessment.
