NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Interior Systems (Construction) — Glass Partitioning/Internal Screen Systems: Everything You Need to Know

Entry Requirements

This qualification is for installers working with internal glass partitioning and office screen systems. If you fit or assemble framed or frameless glass partitions on commercial sites, refurb projects, or office fit-outs, this is aimed at you.

You’ll normally be working as a glass partition installer, interior systems installer, shopfit installer, or a general fitter who regularly handles partition systems. You should already have on-site experience, understand basic construction safety, and be confident working with glass, metal tracks, and framing.

To achieve this NVQ, you must show that you can carry out glass partition and internal screen installation work safely, accurately, and to specification.

Working safely and protecting the work area

  • Check the work area and identify hazards
  • Follow site safety rules, RAMS, PPE requirements, and manual handling procedures
  • Protect surrounding surfaces, floors, and existing finishes

Preparing materials and components

  • Read and follow drawings, specifications, and manufacturer installation details
  • Measure, mark, and set out track positions accurately
  • Prepare glass, aluminium profiles, seals, gaskets, fixings, and any required ironmongery

Fitting glass partition and internal screen systems

  • Install head and floor tracks in line with datum levels
  • Fit vertical posts, glazing channels, and structural supports
  • Lift, position, and secure glass panels without damaging edges or coatings
  • Install gaskets, seals, and trims to ensure correct fit and finish
  • Fit doors, hinges, handles, locks, and closers as required
  • Install manifestation and safety markings to meet regulations
  • Ensure the system is level, plumb, aligned, and compliant with the manufacturer’s guidelines

Finishing and handover

  • Clean glass panels and remove protection without damage
  • Check joints, seals, and fixings for accuracy and compliance
  • Make adjustments to doors and ironmongery for smooth operation
  • Dispose of waste safely and leave the area tidy
  • Communicate any defects, variations, or issues to the supervisor

Working to quality standards

  • Follow manufacturer instructions and site specifications
  • Work efficiently and maintain high-quality workmanship
  • Coordinate with other trades to avoid clashes and delays

You need real site evidence showing your normal work. Useful evidence includes:

  • On-site photos of you installing tracks, glass panels, seals, doors, and trims
  • Method statements or risk assessments you followed or contributed to
  • Toolbox talk records you attended
  • Delivery notes or material lists showing you handled and used correct components
  • Drawings, plans, or specifications you worked from
  • Witness testimonies from supervisors or managers confirming your competence
  • Short video diaries of you carrying out specific installation tasks (if allowed on site)
  • Snag lists or quality checks you completed or were involved in

To learn more about the modules that make up this qualification, refer to the “Qualification Structure” section.

* On completion, apply for a Blue Skilled Worker CSCS card!

* To apply for a CSCS card, you must have a valid H&S test, passed within the last two years.

FAQ

Common Questions, Answered

Everything you need to know about accreditation, eligibility, and what happens after your assessment.

Once your assessment has been successfully completed and your qualification is ready to be issued, you have a few options if you're paying by instalments:

  • Pay the remaining balance in full and we'll issue your certificate immediately.
  • Continue with your payment plan, and we'll issue your certificate once the final instalment has been received.
  • Request an Early Certificate Release (ECR), which may allow you to receive and use your certificate before your payment plan is completed. To do this, you'll need to sign an ECR agreement and provide identification and proof of address — this helps protect both parties while you continue making your scheduled payments.

If you have any questions about your payment plan or certificate release options, our team will be happy to help.
