The official launch of the new NVQ's for the Events Industry will take place
at the Olympia Conference Centre, London, on Thursday 24th June. The NVQ's,
at level 2 and 3, will be made up from a range of units which should closely
reflect the individuals actual role in industry.
Soon, there will be a related distance-learning training package available
from Newham College. It is my understanding that, during the 'pilot' period,
this training will be free of charge (for organisations with fewer than 250
employees). The only (financial)cost is likely to be a registration fee with
City & Guilds, which I believe will be about £70.
I can answer some basic queries but further details are available by
