The last date to meet the requirements is 31 December 2013. Purpose This National Certificate is one of three qualifications designed to recognise the combined management, financial, economic and engineering skills required by asset managers (civil engineering) to provide the required level of service in the most cost effective manner.

The qualifications cater for operations, tactical and strategic levels of the asset management process and while each can stand on its own, people may progress through all three levels. People seeking these qualifications will be required to demonstrate competent performance in the workplace. The National Certificate in Civil Engineering Asset Management (Operations) (Level 4) recognises the knowledge and skills required by role holders to fulfil the key functions of data capture, interpretation of contract specifications in accordance with professional practice, and implementation of operations on site, in accordance with contract specifications and in a professional manner. This qualification can lead to the National Diploma in Civil Engineering Asset Management (Tactical) (Level 6) [Ref: 0761] and the National Diploma in Civil Engineering Asset Management (Strategic) (Level 7) [Ref: 0762].
