About the Scheme

The Utility Network Construction Supervisor (UNCS) scheme records certifications of individuals who work as first-line supervisors in the energy and utilities sector; it is designed to recognise the skills and competences of those carrying out supervisory roles within any of the utility industries.

The scheme was developed as result of demand from across the energy and utilities sector for a common approach for training and assessment programmes for first line supervisors. An individual has their qualifications, training and assessment mapped to the appropriate standards which then allows employers and training providers to develop their own training and assessment programmes – which can be endorsed by Energy & Utility Skills as an Endorsed Training Programme.
