On-Site NVQs for Working Plasterers

Plastering is one of the core trades in construction. Every new build, renovation and repair job needs skilled plasterers to get the walls and ceilings ready for finishing. Because of this, plasterers stay in steady demand across housing, commercial projects and refurbishment work.

If you’ve been working on the tools for years but don’t have a qualification yet, an NVQ in Plastering recognises your skills and helps you move forward. These NVQs are assessed on site while you work, so there’s no classroom time and no exams — just a practical route to getting qualified.

Both options below support different stages of your career.

NVQ Levels Available for Plasterers

The NVQ Level 2 Plastering course is ideal for anyone working as a plasterer who needs a recognised qualification to apply for the Blue CSCS Skilled Worker Card.

The NVQ Level 3 in Plastering is aimed at more experienced plasterers who take on complex work, supervise others or want to move into higher-level roles.

Whichever route matches your experience, the aim is the same: helping you get the qualification you need so you can keep progressing in the plastering trade. If you’re unsure which plastering NVQ suits your background, we can point you in the right direction and get you booked in quickly.
