2 Mapping for Foreman Electrical Works (Construction) (CON/Q0604) with UK Qualification NVQ Level 3Diploma in Installing Electrotechnical Systems and Equipment (Buildings, Structures and the Environment) Link to Indian Qualification Pack: Link to UK Qualification: NA How to Read this Document This document has two sections - Section I and Section II. Section I: Compares the listing in the Indian QP -Foreman Electrical Works with Installation Electrician /inuk Qualification NVQ Level 3. Section II: Compares the competencies described in each of the Indian with those of UK. The language of the compared competencies of the two countries differs. However, the competency pointers of the described competency can be mapped. Wherever the competency pointer maps it is reported as underthe column Gap in Indian. Wherever the competency pointers do not map with the pointers or scope and range, it is identified as a gap and the corresponding UK competency is noted under the column Gap in Indian. Usage of Benchmarked Transnational Standards There will be two types of users of these benchmarked standards. One type will be of those individuals who are already trained and are certified on the corresponding Indian QP. This set of individuals will have to undergo a bridge course comprising of the identified gaps only. Thereafter, they will be assessed under the aegis of a UK Awarding body through the Indian SSC on the competency portions acquired via the bridge course. All qualifying individuals will be awarded a co-branded certificate comprising of logo of Skill India, Indian SSC and UK Awarding Body. Those individuals who wish to be certified afresh will have to undergo training on both the Indian QP and the gaps in the Indian with regard to UK competencies. Thereafter, they will be assessed under the aegis of a UK Awarding body through the Indian SSC and they will obtain a co-branded certificate comprising of logo of Skill India, Indian SSC and UK Awarding Body. 1
