Overview
SCO renewal is for those individuals that have an existing and current SCO registration that are nearing expiry. It is available as a single module for those wishing to renew a single registration or as a combination of modules where an individual would like to renew all their registrations at the same time.
The following renewal module has a Lite version as well as a Full version:
Module 4: Routine Operations
The full version of this renewal module contains all the knowledge required of a standalone module taken alongside the SCO Core module. The Lite version of these modules contains the key knowledge relevant to the permit being covered but where the individual is taking/has already taken a related permit module within the last 6 months and, to avoid duplication, does not need to repeat certain common elements.
There are no Lite versions for Module 3: Non-Routine Operations. This module represents a higher risk level in the SCO hierarchy and, therefore, should be completed in full.
If you have an old registration, then below is the new scheme equivalent.
| Old SCO Scheme | New SCO Scheme |
|---|---|
| SCO 1 & 2 | SCO Core, PtW, FoA |
| SCO 4 | SCO NRO |
| SCO 5 | SCO RO |
SCO Assessments are multiple choice and structured so that there is an assessment per module. Individuals must successfully complete training and assessment for all five modules to pass the course.
The course content is detailed below and has been developed in consultation with the Gas Industry to provide a uniform approach to health, safety, and environmental awareness training across the utilities sector, in line with Health and Safety Executive guidelines.
