The Construction Diploma Level 2 involves a mix of practical and theory elements, all undertaken at the Training Centre. At the end of the course, there are three practical assignments along with a knowledge test. Successful candidates can then proceed to the NVQ Diploma Level 2 programme where they will be assessed in the workplace.
