DIACUTT ACCREDITATIONS
DSA Member – Drilling and Sawing Association
The DSA is committed to its members in helping create a positive role for Drilling & Sawing within the Specialist Contractor sector of the construction industry.
Working hard over many years, The DSA was the first “Specialist Contractor Association” to develop and implement its own apprenticeship scheme in association with CITB, with competency cards being issued well before CSCS cards and NVQ’s. Over many years, the DSA has been pushing hard to change the mind-set within the construction industry, to give Drilling and Sawing the recognition it deserves as a highly skilled trade.
DSA members benefit from approved operator training courses and the adoption of national safety standards and working codes of practices, as well as affiliation with other recognised construction industry international and national associations. The DSA also provides a forum for members to meet within an organised framework to discuss and share best practice and the future development of the industry as a whole.
