Business involvement vital for review of Pre-Press and Post-Press National Occupational Standards

Feb 2, 2022 | Apprenticeships, NSAFD News, Scotland, Wales

Involvement from businesses is required for upcoming reviews of national occupational standards for pre-press and post-press in the print sector.

Business involvement will ensure the benchmark industry standards of performance and effective working keep pace with changing industry needs.

NOS set down industry expectations of performance and achievement in the roles and the specific knowledge and skills staff need to perform effectively.

NOS are the building blocks for industry qualifications and are used to inform professional development. Awarding Organisations typically develop competence-based qualifications across the 4 nations from NOS, which are then used to support Apprenticeship Standards in England or within Apprenticeship Frameworks in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

NSAFD would like businesses to get involved by completing the online consultation for:
