- No previous experience of the PNC is required to attend this course.
- This is an assessed course, meaning an 80% pass mark needs to be achieved in order to successfully complete the course.
- Learners who require PNC names enquiry training as well as vehicle and property enquiry training are recommended to attend the consolidated PNC vehicle, property and name enquiry course (5 days) instead.
- If your organisation does not have access to the PNC property file, the College can also deliver a tailored course for your organisation without the property element.
Dates
At present, the College does not deliver PNC vehicle and property enquiry courses as part of its scheduled ICT training, but can deliver them where a specific demand for this training exists.
This could either be delivered at the College’s Ryton site or at an organisation’s own site, provided the venue meets the PNC system’s technical requirements.
