HFS Trades Teams SCQF Awards

Congratulations, Ross & Paddy! 

Special mention today to Ross Wilson and Paddy Stewart, both valued members of the HFS operational trades team, on their successful completion of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) Level 6 Occupational Work Supervision (Construction) qualification in March 2025. 

This achievement marks the culmination of six months of study, undertaken as part of their ongoing professional development, a commitment discussed and agreed upon during their appraisals last year. Fourteen HFS team members have embarked on various SCQF qualifications, and Ross and Paddy have been the first to achieve the accreditation. 

This demonstrates their hard work and commitment and it’s also great to recognise the invaluable support provided by Robert Love and Bryan McGeechan, whose guidance and encouragement played a crucial role in their achievement. 

Studying during the winter months requires significant dedication, and both Ross and Paddy have displayed exceptional commitment. They are now rightly taking a well-deserved study break before considering their progression to the next level of qualification. 

Paddy claims he completed the qualification first. Ross, naturally, disputes this, adding a touch of good-natured competition to their accomplishment. Regardless of who finished first, their shared success is a source of pride for the entire HFS team. 

We commend Ross and Paddy on their achievement and wish them continued success in their future professional endeavours.
