[QUOTE="DonClif, post: 544100, member: 36659"] Have you researched the options for joining a CPS? i.e. what C&G qualifications they require compared to the qualifications you have? You didn't actually mention any C&G numbers with your qualifications list? [B]I have done some research and it seems the LCL awards are accepted, but I need to do some more research as to what exactly the qualification numbers are. I'll contact the course provider and get back to you on that one if you don't mind.[/B] What did your course cover on the legalities of BS7671 in relation to other statutory acts? [B]If I understand the question correctly, they have made it clear that BS7671 is non-statutory, but that following the guidance and information in the book will put you in the best place to be in line with most other statutory acts. Whilst also keeping to any regulations in the statutory acts.[/B] You also need to be considering what insurance cover you have in place for the work you plan to undertake. [B]I worked for myself while doing commercial multi-trade, so I understand the necessity for the correct insurance and cover, I haven't looked into this in detail yet, as I am not planning on starting work until April '24, so I have plenty of time to get that sorted.[/B] Often businesses prefer to work with VAT registered companies... and/or members of specific trades bodies... [B]I have heard this before, and I can understand why, If I was to look at commercial work it would be on a small scale for smaller businesses.[/B] [/QUOTE]
