The Natural Stone Industry Training Group has been selected by City & Guilds to be part of a pilot for its Professional Recognition Award.

The pilot is free of charge to two candidates. NSITG Chair, Michelle Turner, will be mentor for the candidates.

The C&G Professional Recognition Awards offer the opportunity for professionals to gain an accredited award in leadership and management, providing a progression route from Level 4 to Level 7. 

Successful candidates are granted appropriate post-nominal letters: Licentiate (LCGI) at Level 7, Affiliate (AfCGI), Graduate (GCGI) and Member (MCGI) at Level 4.

Anyone interested in taking part in the pilot should contact NSITG Training Officer Claire Wallbridge on claire@nsitg.org.uk / Tel: 07511464346.

She says that as this is bound to be popular, she asks that interest is registered by Wednesday 8 February and places will be given on a first come first served basis.
