Course Overview

Course Description

By the end of the NRSWA training course delegates will be able to:

• Summarise the requirements of the current NRSW Act.

• Monitor duties performed by Operatives for each unit and/or qualification as prescribed by CABWI.

• Standards in-line with current legislation, and ACOP where applicable.

• Provide a safe working environment for themselves and others.

Course Aims

The NRSWA course content includes:

• Location and avoidance of underground apparatus.

• Monitoring signing, lighting and guarding.

• Monitoring excavation in the highway.

• Monitoring reinstatement of compaction and backfill materials.

• Monitoring reinstatement of sub-base and road base non-bituminous materials.

• Monitoring reinstatement of bituminous materials.

• Monitoring reinstatement of concrete slabs.

• Monitoring reinstatement of modular surfaces and concrete footways.

A high proportion of practical exercises and simulated assessments will be supplemented with video and classroom-based tutorials. Supervisors have to demonstrate the ability to monitor a site and compile written reports in order to successfully complete the course.

A training group may contain a mix of both Supervisors and Operatives; however, a minimum of 2 Operatives must be available for Supervisors to carry out monitoring exercises, thus enabling the most effective development of these candidates.
