NVQ Level 2 EWPA: Experienced Worker Practical Assessment
Already have at least five years of relevant trade experience? YTA’s EWPA route allows suitable experienced workers to demonstrate their skills through assessment at our Bradford centre, supported by evidence of their work.
Attendance is usually one or two days, depending on the trade. Plastering involves two assessment days. Preparation, witness evidence and qualification requirements must also be completed; this is not a beginner training course or a guaranteed qualification after attending.
Check Your Suitability Before Booking
Our assessor discusses your trade experience and the qualification units with you before confirming whether EWPA is appropriate. Call 01274 682199 or request an EWPA eligibility check. Include your trade, years of experience and the types of work you currently carry out.
Plastering NVQ Level 2
The two-day plastering NVQ Level 2 EWPA assessment costs £950 including VAT, paid as a £450 deposit and £500 balance. The course page explains preparation, assessment, dates and the booking process.
Other EWPA Trades
YTA also offers experienced-worker assessment in wall and floor tiling, bricklaying and site carpentry. Select the relevant assessment below and confirm its current requirements and dates with the team.
An appropriate NVQ can support a CSCS card application, subject to the scheme’s other requirements. See the CSCS Blue Skilled Worker requirements. The card is a separate application.
If assessment in your workplace would suit you better, compare the OSAT route. See our assessment team or compare both NVQ routes.
