Here the fenestration industry’s awarding and qualifications-writing organisation chats to Chris about his new role.
Today, GQA helps to ensure that the attainment of qualifications is meaningful in securing professional development and long-term careers. I’ve been very fortunate to have had a varied and international career, whilst focusing mainly on quality assurance. From the world of polymer science to that of electronics, I have seen a good range of management cultures. Modifications to the building regulations form a key backdrop to the changes I’ve seen GQA have to accommodate. Diversification into new markets and adaptation to new regulations have both required a nimble and flexible approach from GQA. This ability to evolve has helped it become the impressive organisation it is today.
How important do you feel qualifications and training are?
Changes in the regulatory system and the introduction of the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) are likely to bring about a step change in skills, knowledge, education and behaviours, and the competence framework will have to reflect this. The good news is that standards in the industry will be driven upwards as a consequence. I also expect GQA’s activities will help to answer the needs of the Future Homes Standard, which will have a positive impact on improving standards in residential construction.
