What is the Level 2 NVQ Ductwork Qualification

This NVQ is a work based qualification that confirms your skill, knowledge and competence in the installation of heating and ventilation ductwork systems. It is aimed at individuals who are already working in the trade and want to achieve a recognised qualification for career development and compliance.

There are no written exams. Instead you are assessed on real work tasks in your normal job role. Your assessor collects evidence, conducts observations and guides you through the process until you complete.

Who is the Level 2 Ductwork NVQ For

This qualification is designed for:

Ductwork installers and mates
HVAC installation operatives
Building services trades working on ventilation systems
Individuals needing a skilled worker CSCS card
Experienced workers who learned on the job and never gained formal recognition
Subcontractors who need proof of competence for principal contractors and site managers

If you are already fitting, supporting, measuring or installing duct sections on active worksites, then you are suitable for this NVQ.

Why Ductwork Installers Need This Qualification

Across the UK construction sector, competence, compliance and safety are now non negotiable. Contractors demand proof. Clients expect qualification backed assurance. Site access rules are becoming tighter, especially on major projects.

This NVQ provides that proof.

Key benefits for delegates include:

Recognition of real skills through a respected national qualification
Stronger employability and contract opportunities
Access to skilled worker CSCS card routes
Improved job security on site
Better negotiating position with employers and agencies
Progression opportunities into supervisory environments

For employers, qualified staff reduce risk, improve compliance and meet tender expectations more easily.

Assessment Explained No Exams No Classroom

Target Zero uses experienced industry assessors who visit you on site or online to verify your competence. The process is simple, supportive and designed around your normal working week.

Evidence may include:

Assessor observations while you work
Photographs of completed ductwork systems
Method statements and risk assessments
Toolbox talks
Professional discussions
Witness testimonies from supervisors

Throughout your NVQ journey you do not stop working and you do not attend classroom sessions. Everything revolves around your day to day work activities.

What You Will Be Assessed On

The NVQ covers the full spectrum of ductwork installation including:

Reading and interpreting drawings and specifications
Measuring and marking out work areas
Preparing and assembling duct components
Installing ductwork systems to industry tolerance
Fitting supports, hangers and fixings safely
Sealing, connecting and finishing systems accurately
Carrying out safe working practices at all times

You are not expected to be perfect. You are expected to be competent, safe and consistent with real world standards. If you already do the job, you will recognise all of these tasks immediately.

Duration and Flexibility

Most delegates complete within three to twelve weeks depending on experience and evidence availability. Because assessment is flexible and workplace based, you control the pace. There is no deadline pressure, no exam stress and no forced classroom attendance.

CSCS Skilled Worker Route

Once completed, the Level 2 NVQ supports the application for the Blue Skilled Worker CSCS card in heating and ventilation ductwork installation.

This card gives you:

Stronger site access
Recognition as a competent skilled worker
Enhanced trust from clients and main contractors
Improved rates from agencies and subcontracting firms

If you currently hold a labourer card but work in a skilled role, this is the correct pathway to upgrade.
