NPORS credentials provide nationally recognised proof of operator competence, supporting employers in meeting health and safety and legal compliance requirements.

Following successful training and assessment, candidates may be awarded an NPORS Operator Card, demonstrating that the holder has been trained and assessed to recognised standards.
