Benefits of an IRSE Licence
Why a License?
It is an independent verification of your capability within a defined role. It is also a professional recognition of where you are within your career.
How can it benefit?
Being that it is an independent assessment of your competence it gives future employers confidence in what you are able to do. It is no longer your word, It shows them you are able to follow defined process that will generate a safe product.
What ‘weight’ does it carry?
It is an ‘Internationally’ recognised professional qualification (UK, Australia, Far East, Middle East, Europe). It is also a mandatory requirement under UK Law for you to hold such a licence if wishing to work on UK Signalling.
We are pleased to announce that our IRSE Assessing Agency has successfully issued the inaugural IRSE Tester Licenses to Trident Rail in New Zealand. This milestone marks the first time these licenses have been granted in New Zealand and to Trident Rail, highlighting our commitment to pioneering and advancing IRSE Licensing.
