Level 4 NPA: Construction is an introductory qualification which develops the skills, knowledge and attitudes, needed for work in the construction industry. It is especially suitable for learners with an aptitude for, and an interest in, practical crafts work.

The Course provides an insight into several important construction trades (decorative painting, carpentry and joinery, and plumbing) and covers a variety of skills in trades-specific Units — helping learners to make informed choices regarding a career in construction.

Learners will also develop skills and attitudes that enhance employability, not just for the construction industry, but employment generally (eg setting goals, reflecting, and learning from experience).
