Nationally Accredited Fire Risk Assessors Register

摘要

The Institute recognises that the time has come to start to move towards a more professional and competency based fire risk assessors register. This has always been our aim. We are the first professional body in the fire sector to take action to provide one which contains the names of fire risk assessors who have been through a process which is accredited by an independent nationally recognised accreditation body to provide third party type accreditation/certification, preferably by UKAS. UKAS is a totally independent accreditation body which has the support and backing of the government. The UKAS link is important for us in the promotion of a national independent register as it signals government support. Any scheme that we recognise should also encapsulate the relevant British and European standards for bodies operating certification of competent persons and possibly, standards for bodies' certification of product/services.
