Based on National Occupational Standards (NOS), this Diploma in Installing Engineering Construction Plant and Systems – Pipefitting at SCQF Level 6 includes units on shaping engineering construction pipework components by material removal using hand tools, marking out to the required specification for pipefitting activities in engineering construction and more.
ECITB requires that evidence of competence must be drawn from and reflect activity undertaken by the learner in the workplace. The workplace is defined as the learner’s normal place of work for their occupation.
In the units of assessment some learning outcomes and associated assessment criteria relate to the knowledge that enables a learner to perform competently. Evidence must be collected that verifies this knowledge is present.
