At Clarks Vehicle Conversions, we've always believed in the power of our team. They're the heart and soul of everything we do and what makes Clarks a family business. That's why we're thrilled to announce our latest initiative: offering a NVQ2 qualification in Performing Manufacturing Operations (PMO) to all our production staff, as standard. This isn't just about training; it's about investing in our people and their future, setting a new standard in our industry and bringing ourselves in line with base vehicle manufacturers. To us, this program isn't just a certificate - it's a symbol of our commitment to our team and our vision for the future.

INVESTING IN PEOPLE: CLARKS' VISION

Our philosophy goes beyond just converting vehicles; it's about building careers, building confidence and building the future. The decision to offer the NVQ2 qualification in PMO stems from a deeply ingrained belief in nurturing talent and providing avenues for growth. By making this qualification available to all production staff members, Clarks is not only investing in individual development but also in the collective expertise of its workforce.

SETTING THE STANDARD

We aren’t content with merely meeting industry standards; we aim to raise the bar. By becoming the first conversion business to mandate the NVQ2 qualification as a minimum requirement, we demonstrate our commitment to excellence. This move not only elevates the skill level within the organisation but also sets a precedent for the entire industry to follow suit.

BENEFITS

1. PROFESSIONAL VALIDATION

Earning the NVQ2 qualification provides tangible evidence of an individual's competence in performing manufacturing operations. It serves as a validation of their skills and expertise, enhancing their credibility within the organisation and the industry as a whole.
