The Joint Industry Board for Plumbing and Mechanical Engineering Services (England and Wales) welcomes applications for its UK-PHMES/CSCS Registration Cards from applicants holding non - UK qualifications.
However, to ensure that qualifications are equivalent to those obtained in the UK, all applicants with qualifications obtained outside the UK are required to obtain an equivalence report from the UK NARIC [ The National Recognition Information Centre for the United Kingdom ].
The UK NARIC provides a service for individuals seeking information on comparability between International and UK qualifications.
We understand that the cost of the written individual assessment of qualifications, which result in a letter of compatibility, is currently £30 plus VAT (£35.25)
This information is provided by UK NARIC - you should contact them to obtain their current application procedures.
