National Occupational Standards

ENTO undertakes a wide range of projects and commissions which are listed below.

Current Projects

GoSkills

Background
The aim of the GoSkills project is to update the existing apprenticeship frameworks for Advice and Guidance, and Occupational Health and Safety in order to make them compliant with the current Apprenticeship Blueprint

Development
The project began in October 2009, with Project Manager at ENTO being Tony Green, the Managing Director. Due to ill health, Tony had to leave on long term sick in November 2009 and in December 2009, the project was handed over to Anna Gardner, Group National Account Executive.

Through steering group meetings and consultation, valuable feedback was received from those who work within Advice and Guidance, and Health and Safety daily which enabled the completion of the project.
