Get recognised competence evidence for the Building Safety Act, so you don't get filtered out of work by local authorities, principal contractors or SSIP renewals.
Sole traders and small contractors are increasingly being asked to provide competence evidence when bidding for work, renewing SSIP schemes, or responding to procurement questionnaires from local authorities and housing associations.
Without a competence certificate, you risk being filtered out before you even get to quote.
The BSA22 Competence Certificate provides recognised evidence that you understand your legal duties under the Building Safety Act. This is not a generic awareness video or a £350 course designed for building owners. This workshop is built specifically for the trades: electricians, plumbers, gas engineers, fire stoppers, carpenters, multi trade teams, maintenance operatives, small contractors, and sole traders.
You receive a CPD certificate, a competence certificate, digital verification with QR code, and downloadable materials to demonstrate compliance to clients and procurement teams.
