- Stage 1 - Employer contacts CITB-ConstructionSkills or an OSAT centre to enquire about OSAT.
- Stage 2 - CITB-ConstructionSkills, or one of its partners, will discuss the OSAT process with you and help you pick the best 'option' for your needs. They will also talk you through the grants available and identify suitable OSAT providers.
- Stage 3 - The OSAT centre will arrange to come to see you to discuss your situation in greater detail.
- Stage 4 - Employees are briefed on the OSAT process and undergo a skills review.
- Stage 5 - The employee follows an individual action plan to fill any skills gaps, and is assessed as they go along.
- Stage 6 - Once successfully completed, an NVQ / SVQ is awarded. When combined with a Health and Safety Test pass, the employee is eligible for a CSCS card.
