NPTC assessments are valid for life, but evidence needs to be provided of continual updating of skills at roughly 3 yearly intervals.
NPTC assessments are must be carried out by an assessor who has had no part in training the candidate.
We arrange our assessments through Mid Wales and the Marches Assessment Centre www.mwmac.co.uk and normally the assessment can be carried out at the same site as the training course.
Prices for assessments can be found on the MWMAC website.
