NRSWA Reassessment Signing, lighting and guarding

NRSWA Reassessment – O1 or S1 (was Unit 2 and Unit 10) Signing, Lighting and Guarding - Open Course

Who should attend a NRSWA Signing, Lighting and Guarding Reassessment?

If your streetworks card is about to or has already expired, you will need to take a NRSWA Streetworks reassessment course.

You are not able to work on a streetworks site with expired certificates. You can take reassessments at any time before your certificates expire and the remaining time left before expiry is now added to your new card. For example, if you take your reassessment with 6 months still remaining, it will be added to your new card when you receive it, resulting in 5 years and 6 months on your card expiry.

Frequently asked questions

Here are some of the questions we frequently get asked about the NRSWA training courses.

Are there age restrictions to the NRSWA course?

You have to be 16 or over to attend an NRSWA course. However if you are 16 or 17, you will need written consent from a parent or guardian to attend the course.

If I do the NRSWA Supervisor course, can I do the operatives work?

No, if you complete the NRSWA Supervisor training course you can only supervise to make sure that the operative has carried out the work correctly. You are not trained to carry out the operatives work. If you wish to be able to do both roles, you will need to complete both courses (you can not be an operative and a supervisor on the same site or supervise your own work).

What NRSWA course do I need?

Operative or Supervisor? Full course or individual unit? We want to make sure you book the course that you need, if you are unsure what course you need, click here to find out.

Why do the NRSWA courses have different durations and prices at each location?

This is because we offer different units at each location.

I have a group of delegates can a trainer come to me?

In most cases yes we can send trainers to your site. The only scenario when we can't is if the training has to be completed at an accredited centre. This is the case with NRSWA training.

My card has expired

If your card has expired and you live in England, you will need to take a re-assessment course, you can take a re-assessment course up to 5 years after your card has expired. If your card has been expired longer than 5 years, you will have to take a full streetworks course again.
