Learning & Development Network Event

In 2011,  a long awaited milestone was been met for the parking sector in the launch of the suite of parking management qualifications at levels 3, 4 and 5. Now in 2012, the new level-2 parking enforcement officer qualification will also be available and this will see the introduction of pathways for enforcement on private land, enforcement under RTRA '84 and parking and traffic enforcement using CCTV, as well as the existing civil enforcement officer pathway.

To help embed these qualifications in the sector, the BPA hosted an L&D Network event in Febuary 2012 for the sector's learning and development professionals. This included speakers from both City & Guilds and Asset Skills to provide an overview of these qualifications and the proposed UK Academy for Parking.
