ECITB – 4 Stage Model to Competence

The route to competence for any individual will depend on their worker status. This can be either a “New Worker” or an “Experienced Worker”. The route to competence will differ depending on worker status.

New Worker – No previous experience

If a person is a New Worker they must complete the full 4-stage model:

Stage 1             

Training Course Attendance

Stage 2             

Workplace Practice (complete WBTA Logbook) 12 weeks to 12 months period of on-site practice and consolidation of skills. If a new worker has not completed their Logbook, including having it verified with a signature by a person within the learner’s organisation, within the 12 month period after training then they will not be permitted to take the technical test. The learner will be required to start the process again from stage 1 with attendance at a training course followed by stage 2 with completion of a new Logbook

Stage 3             

Attend relevant Assessment (12 weeks to 12 months from course attendance)

Stage 4             

Attend Re-assessment (within 3 years if successful at stage 3)

Experienced Worker (Company or Private individual)

If the person is an Experienced Worker they should have relevant industry experience backed up with previous or in-date discipline certification.

Experienced workers who attend the training course(s) as “refresher training” should wait a minimum period of 2 weeks after course completion before being granted access to the relevant technical test.

Learners can only access this module if they hold an ECITB SBT01 – Assemble and Install Small Bore Tubing with Twin Ferrule Fittings Approved Course Certificate taken in the previous 6 months or have attained the TSBT01 Assemble and Install Small Bore Tubing Assemblies – Twin Ferrule Technical Test
