March 2010
C&M Training’s lead assessor, Craig Chandler has just completed
another first, the delivery and award of an SVQ4 in Waste Management
Operations to a candidate working outside of the UK. The assessment
(for Hazardous Waste Treatment) was completed in the Republic of Serbia
during an EU Funded Healthcare Waste Project.
Delivering a UK vocational qualification aboard is a complicated business
and SQA were involved from the start to provide advice and agree procedures.
The candidate, Victor Hristov (a Macedonian national) was employed
as Waste Technology expert on a 2 year; EU funded Healthcare Waste Project
in Serbia.
The award took over 12 months to complete and involved Craig travelling
to Belgrade to deliver a 2 day training course covering the underpinning
knowledge requirements of the award and again to carry out ‘on-site’;
assessments of Victor at the Healthcare Waste (HCW) Treatment Plant
at the Institute for Public Health (IPH) Dr Milan Jovanovic Batut in
Belgrade.
