Construction Industry Council in conjunction with key sector interests, on behalf of, and as a partner in ConstructionSkills, has revised the National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Town Planning, Conservation and Building Control, just approved by UKCES, the UK Commission for Employment and Skills.
These NOS have been developed by industry practitioners and are supported by the relevant professional institutions and employer bodies.
These National Occupational Standards (NOS) have been designed for people who have a managerial role in the fields of Town Planning (including spatial planning, development management and enforcement activities), Conservation and Building Control. They are relevant for practitioners from across the UK working for local authorities, or other public organisations and or working in private sector consultancies.
We would like to thank all those who took part in the working group and the consultation process. Your participation and involvement has ensured that the revised standards reflect changing industry practices relating to sustainability, energy use, low carbon and localism.
