Occupational Standards

Drill down through the different levels to find the information you want.

The text opposite is showing one Key Area with its associated Key Roles.

Key Area

The analysis proceeds by asking ‘what needs to be done in order to achieve this key purpose?’ Consultation in the Industry has identified six major functions - called Key Areas - A to F are essential to the achievement of the Key Purpose. The professional, managerial and technical roles fall into Key Areas A, B, D, E and F. Area C contains all the practical construction, installation and maintenance operations. These Standards cover ‘hands on’ activities and were developed to reflect craft functions and are separately available from other Standards Setting Bodies, including Asset Skills, CITB-ConstructionSkills, ECITB, EU Skills, ProSkills and SummitSkills. The text opposite is showing a Key Role with its associated Units. You may click on any of the Units to reveal the underlying Occupational Standards.

Key Role

Having identified the six key areas, each is then subjected to further analysis - each time the question is asked ‘what needs to be done in order to achieve this key function?’ This next level of analysis is called key roles.
