Association announce Remote Training for Surveyors and Analysts
“We have listened to feedback from members and the overriding request was for greater flexibility of when and how candidates undertake training and exams,” says, Satish Patel, Training Manager for ARCA.
The Association is pleased to announce the availability of remote training for both asbestos surveyors and analysts to support their goal in achieving an RSPH qualification.
Candidates can now either undertake a full qualification at an ARCA centre over consecutive days, or if candidates’ employers can provide the necessary practical training, there is now a new option for taking the theoretical training remotely, before sitting examinations at an ARCA centre.
What does this mean?
Candidates will be able to take one day of remote training a week, that is three separate training days for surveyors and four for analysts.
This gives candidates time to read further and gain practical experience in the workplace, before undertaking another remote training day.
Following this there will be an exam day held at an ARCA Centre, which will be arranged for around 10 working days after the last remote training day.
“We have listened to feedback from members and the overriding request was for greater flexibility of when and how candidates undertake training and exams,” says, Satish Patel, Training Manager for ARCA.
“After July / August this year we will be arranging training one day a week to give the candidates time to consider the training in stages and gain the specific practical skills, before progressing further. This method has less impact on the business as training is spread over a number of weeks.”
Candidates now have three options available to support their goal in achieving an RSPH qualification: centre-based training and exam, remote training and exam, or exam only option.
