The CIWM (WAMITAB) have updated their Continuing Competence Tests to ensure questions cover new legislations, technologies and techniques, thus accurately testing the knowledge and skills of technically competence persons.
All technically competent workers must pass the Continuing Competence test every two years in order to meet the requirements of the CIWM(WAMITAB) Operator Competence Scheme. There are regular legislation updates across the waste management industry, and completing the test every 2 years ensures workers knowledge and competence are always up to date. The requirement to complete a Continuing Competence test every two years is not a legal requirement in Scotland, however it is a good way of demonstrating you are up to date and regularly assessed.
CIWM(WAMITAB) have released and update with access to new syllabi which can be found here: https://ciwmquals.co.uk/competence/continuing-competence/
Albion Environmental are a CIWM (WAMITAB) Approved training centre and have a number of resources to support candidates who are required to complete their Continuing Competence test.
