CITY & GUILDS CREDIT RATED AND LEVELLED COURSESASET’s exclusive range of City & Guilds credit rated and levelled Oil and Gas short courses allow delegates attending these courses the opportunity to demonstrate their ongoing professional development. This exclusive range of courses is not only recognised within the SCQF framework but also provides the building blocks to enhance existing qualifications and provide a road map to further modes of study.

The advantage of having a qualification placed in the SCQF is that learners, employers, receiving institutions, awarding bodies, Sector Skills Councils and standard setting organisations (SSOs) can see the level of skills being developed by the learner. It can also help when selecting relevant training options and identifying development paths and progression routes into further qualifications.

The SCQF uses two measures to describe qualifications and learning programmes: ‘level’ and ‘credit’. The term ‘credit rating’ encompasses both the allocation of SCQF level and the calculation of SCQF credit points.

Qualifications can be added to the SCQF provided they meet the following criteria from the SCQF Partnership:

• They must be outcome-based, ie must contain statements of knowledge, skills, values or competence that are capable of being measured at the end of a process of learning (based on learning outcomes)

• They should be capable of being assessed, ie there must be a robust, effective system of assessing that the outcomes have been achieved. (These outcomes must be recorded)

• They are subject to external quality assurance, ie must have a documented process of external quality assurance for the assessment of the learning outcomes

• They must consist of a minimum of 10 hours of notional learning time.

ASET INSTRUCTORSASET training instructors have extensive experience from the upstream and downstream; oil and gas; and engineering industries ranging from Oil & Gas Technicians, Control Room Operators and Offshore Installation Managers.The instructors’ knowledge and experience increases the quality and credibility of training delivered by the ASET International Oil and Gas Training Academy.

HISTORY Aberdeen Skills & Enterprise Training was incorporated as a Private Limited Company and registered at Companies House in April 1993.Since its inception, ASET has been delivering competence based training. The company, in conjunction with Shell UK, pioneered and developed the standards and competence based assessment training programmes for the identification and classification of Hazardous Areas and opened the world’s first dedicated training centre in 1991. ASET remains a leading provider of this training EX is now a global standard accredited by JT Limited.

The Marine Centre was the first Nautical Institute Dynamic Positioning Approved Centre in the world (1984) and is the only training centre recognized by the International Association of Drilling Contractors for Stability and Semi-Submersible and Jack-Up training (1987).

Aberdeen College and ASET acquired the former Shell Operations training facility in February 2000. Since then ASET has delivered Production and Maintenance training to the majority of the world’s operators and contractors in the oil and gas industry.Since its inception ASET has continued to develop and grow. On 7th March 2012 ASET held the official opening of its new International Oil & Gas Training Academy, arguably one of the finest training facilities for Oil and Gas Technicians in the world.

In October 2016 ASET diversified into Construction training partnering with CITB to build a state of the art Scaffolding Training Centre for the North East of Scotland Construction Industry.

HISTORYAberdeen Skills & Enterprise Training was incorporated as a Private Limited Company and registered at Companies House in April 1993.

Since its inception, ASET has been delivering competence based training. The company developed the first dedicated Hazardous Area Training Centre in the world (1991) and is still the world leader in this provision. The Marine Department Centre was the first Nautical Institute Dynamic Positioning Approved Centre anywhere in the world (1984) and is the only training centre recognized by the International Association of Drilling contractors for Stability and Semi-Submersible and Jack-Up training (1987).

Why ASET’s High Voltage Training differs from that of it’s competitors in Scotland

• ASET High Voltage equipment consists of a full range of HV and LV switchboards which can either be remotely switched through our Electric Control Panel or locally at the boards themselves

• The primary electrical supply comes from two of ASET’s Power Generator and VSD (Variable Synchronised Drives) which allows delegates the opportunity to synchronise and load share during training exercises

• ASET have two fully rated Transformers which feeds between HV to LV boards• ASET High Voltage technology uses live electrical power to which we simulate for safety

reasons to 6.6Kv• ASET’s High Voltage technology and equipment is the most up-to-date consisting of

Schneider fully rated Circuit Vacuum Breakers on the HV board and fully rated Air Circuit Breakers on our LV boards

• ASET training personnel take delegates through extensive training and assessment on all HV and LV boards using live power. This also includes delegates creating suitable switching and isolations

* ASET’s exclusive 0672 City & Guilds qualification has, over many years, become the entry course and standard in the North Sea and wider UKCS for further authorisations by Electrical personnel

* Part of the ASET competency assessment requires course delegates to complete a written examination to demonstrate the knowledge they have gained throughout the course. This is mandatory for quality assurance and City & Guilds 0672 Certification

Why ASET’s High Voltage Training differs from that of it’s competitors in Scotland

• ASET High Voltage equipment consists of a full range of HV and LV switchboards which can either be remotely switched through our Electric Control Panel or locally at the boards themselves

• The primary electrical supply comes from two of ASET’s Power Generator and VSD (Variable Synchronised Drives) which allows delegates the opportunity to synchronise and load share during training exercises

• ASET have two fully rated Transformers which feeds between HV to LV boards• ASET High Voltage technology uses live electrical power to which we simulate for safety

reasons to 6.6Kv• ASET’s High Voltage technology and equipment is the most up-to-date consisting of

Schneider fully rated Circuit Vacuum Breakers on the HV board and fully rated Air Circuit Breakers on our LV boards

• ASET training personnel take delegates through extensive training and assessment on all HV and LV boards using live power. This also includes delegates creating suitable switching and isolations

* ASET’s exclusive 0672 City & Guilds qualification has, over many years, become the entry course and standard in the North Sea and wider UKCS for further authorisations by Electrical personnel

* Part of the ASET competency assessment requires course delegates to complete a written examination to demonstrate the knowledge they have gained throughout the course. This is mandatory for quality assurance and City & Guilds 0672 Certification

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY SCAFFOLDERS’ RECORD SCHEME (CISRS)ASET International Oil and Gas Training Academy is an accredited training provider of the Construction Industry Scaffolders’ Record Scheme (CISRS). It is managed by employer and employee representatives who collectively set and agree the minimum standards of training and performance that an individual requires to qualify as a scaffolder.

The Record Scheme ensures that operatives are trained to prescribed levels before they can work unsupervised. It also ensures operatives are paid at the appropriate rate.

The Record Scheme for scaffolders is aligned with Vocational Qualifications. All trainee scaffolders need to achieve Level 2 before a Scaffolding Card can be issued, and Level 3 before an Advanced Card can be issued.

The Part 1 and Part 2 courses have been revised in recent years to allow a natural progression to achieve the full NVQ/SVQ.

For more information regarding the scheme please call the CISRS helpline on 0844 815 7223.

ROUTE TO ACHIEVING A SCAFFOLDING CARDThe route to achieving full scaffolder status is illustrated in the flowchart on the page opposite.

The scheme requires that individuals have six months’ experience as a trainee scaffolder and have held the CISRS COTS card for six months’ before they attend the Part 1 course. They are then required to have a minimum of six months’ experience on site before attending the Part 2 course.

An individual is a trainee scaffolder until they have completed Part 1 and Part 2 courses, completed a Level 2 NVQ/SVQ in Access & Rigging/ CISRS Skills Test and passed CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) test.
