“I’ve been using SOLAR, SQA’s e-assessment platform, since 2019. I was apprehensive about switching from paper-based assessment but the process was made easy with help and support along the way. The system is simple to use and has saved me time and money”.
Stephen Bird, SQA Coordinator, SCB Training Services Ltd
SQA is an international leader in education and training; we assess and award qualifications throughout the UK and abroad. With over 100 years’ experience in developing qualifications, we help organisations to realise their potential and achieve their ambitions.
SQA offers a complete suite of Street Works qualifications for operatives and supervisors working on the roads/highways. Street Works qualifications meet the requirements of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (NRSW) which requires work involving the installation, renewal, maintenance and inspection of underground apparatus in the highway to be under the control of competent persons who are in possession of a valid Street Works card.
SOLAR is SQA's free online e-assessment system which is used to deliver tests on a range of devices. Centres can upload candidates and schedule them for subjects that they are approved to offer. These tests are secure, quality assured, pre-verified and both summative and formative. Candidates access the system using a Keycode and in most cases are provided with an instant result.
