hi everyone need info on how to get my gold card though and sign off portfolio can you still get those guys to come to site any info would be great in oxford area cheers.
 
Just do what they all do to me, fling it on the gaffers desk on Friday afternoon and tell him you need it for Monday or your card will run out.:(
 
I completed my portfolio and then posted it recorded deliver back to Erith. I then had to go back up there for a two day assesment.
 
I understand that to gain an advanced card you need to complete 2 parts.
1. 2 week CISRS Advanced course
2. Complete NVQ Level 3

I would suggest getting a specialist NVQ company to work with you to complete the NVQ part - I can recommen Symphony Assessments in Tamworth, contact Danny Chatfield.They specialise in Scaffold NVQ's. Once you have your NVQ level 3 and completed 2 week Advanced Course you can apply for your gold card. I think you can do each part in any order - i.e. course first NVQ second or vice versa.
 
The idea of sending your portfolio back to the centre prior to the assessment day is so it can be checked to make sure everything is in order. It is requested that any portfolio is handed to the centre prior to booking the assessment day.
This is your form of evidence that you are entitled to be there on the day. No portfolio = no assessment, which in turn is a waste of money to the companies and candidates.

Get it correct in the beginning. Believe in the 6 p's.
