New OFTEC Requirements

As of 1 April 2011, it is compulsory for candidates who do not already hold an OFTEC qualification to undertake oil training. All of these candidates must fill in the OFTEC registration form ‘Checklist for Candidates Claiming Category 2 Status’ and return this to West Suffolk College along with the Services to Business booking form.

Candidates wishing to undertake assessment only must provide proof of previous qualifications. Candidates who already hold the OFL101 may undertake the OFL105e and/or OFL600a without training. However, candidates who only hold OFL105e or OFL600a must attend OFL100 training before taking the OFL101 assessment.
