Purpose
The National Certificate in Engineering and Technology (Glass Containers) (Level 3)
[Ref: 0948] is a technical qualification in the glass container manufacturing industry, and
builds on the skills gained through the National Certificate in Engineering and Technology
(Glass Containers) (Level 2) [Ref: 0947]. It is designed to provide a broad range of skills
and knowledge in glass container manufacturing, and the basis for people to progress to
the Level 4 qualification to become processing specialists.
Holders of this certificate are able to undertake a diverse range of activities related to
processing, equipment, and production, under limited supervision. This includes roles
such as advanced ware-makers, advanced verifiers and job change specialists. They will
also have gained further interpersonal skills.
This qualification can lead to the National Certificate in Engineering and Technology
(Glass Containers) (Level 4) [Ref: 0949].
