The Automatic Door Suppliers Association is proud to have headed a trail blazer group of industry professionals to create an Apprenticeship Standard Reference Number STO373 Powered Pedestrian Door Installer and Service Engineer (full details of the standard are available on the institute for apprenticeship's website)

Each Module is selected to ensure that all apprentices attain essential core skills. Level 2 Maths and English will also be provided if the Apprentice does not hold equivalent qualifications

  • Pass the ADSA CSCS Health & Safety in a Construction Environment Level 1 approved CITB course within two years of applying for a new card.

As we all know, any qualification or training comes with a financial cost attached to it, so why pay for a CSCS card that doesn’t represent the skills, knowledge and investment that has been put into your workforce only to be refused access to the work site.
