NRSWA Reassessment

NRSWA Reassessment Training Course

The NRSWA Reassessment training course is designed for Operatives and Supervisors who need to renew their NRSWA certificate and SWQR card.

Even if your card has expired, you can still take the reassessment—as long as it’s within five years of the expiry date.

We offer certificates for both England and Scotland. Since there is no fixed combination required, you can tailor your certificates to match the specific work you perform.

Experienced trainers—who bring years of practical knowledge from the Construction, Utility, and Civil Engineering sectors—deliver every course in a classroom setting.

Why Take the NRSWA Reassessment?

Under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (NRSWA), a qualified operative must be on-site whenever street works are taking place. While the supervisor doesn’t need to remain on-site, they must oversee the work and can supervise multiple sites.

If your SWQR card has expired and you previously completed an NRSWA course, you must take the reassessment. It’s essential to complete your training within five years of the card’s expiry date, as working without a valid card is not permitted.

What Does the Reassessment Include?

The NRSWA Reassessment courses covers a wide range of certificates for both operatives and supervisors.
