Upgrading from Auditor Member to Consultant Member
Auditor Members of the NRAC who have increased their knowledge and experience of construction processes since being first accepted onto the Register may apply to upgrade their status from Auditor to Consultant. A Member wanting to upgrade must be able to demonstrate that the core competencies and skills requirements for a Consultant Member are fulfilled as set out in Section 6.
Upgrading from Auditor to Consultant follows the same format as a Stage two application (see the Information and application pack for more details). Members who wish to undertake this need to submit three copies of the following documents to the NRAC:
- application form (found below)
- a one-page (single side A4) summary/CV of professional experience and qualifications
- an experience appraisal
- a core competence report
- a written submission on a piece of access related work, which demonstrates key aspects of core competences
- an application fee of £140. Please make cheques payable to the National Register of Access Consultants, or NRAC.
An Assessment Panel consisting of three Consultant Members of the register will review the written submission and interview the Member applying to upgrade. The NRAC Manager, or Assistant, may be present during the interview but will not take part in it.
The interview will follow the standard NRAC format, but the questions will focus on the applicants' competence as a Consultant Member.
Successful Applicants will get their details changed on the online Members' database and will be sent a new membership card and certificate. They will need to pay the increase in the annual membership fee pro rata.
