Description
The Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Construction Contracting Operations is designed for individuals working in office-based or technical support roles within the construction industry. Suitable pathways include buying, estimating, design coordination, planning, document control, and site technical support. This qualification allows you to gain formal recognition of your competence through assessment in your day-to-day role — no exams, no time off work.
You’ll build a portfolio of real-world evidence demonstrating how you carry out key responsibilities such as interpreting drawings, managing documents, communicating with project teams, and supporting the planning and delivery of construction activities. Assessment is tailored to your role and includes professional discussions, document reviews, and workplace observations.
Achieving this NVQ can support progression to more senior roles or further qualifications, and is often used to demonstrate competence for card schemes or CPD requirements within construction-related roles.
