IETA (Insulation and Environmental Training Agency) is a division of the Thermal Insulation Contractors Association, responsible for managing the industry's training programmes for Thermal Insulation Apprentices.
In August 1990 TICA withdrew from scope of the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) and set up its own Managing Agent, the Insulation and Environmental Training Agency to oversee the apprenticeship training scheme for the industry. IETA is an accredited centre with the Edexcel for the delivery of NVQ's in Thermal Insulation and Functional Skills through NOCN. Field based Training Officers give advice and assistance on all training and grant matters, as well as monitoring the progress of apprentices.
The IETA mission is:
"To enhance the competitive position of the Thermal Insulation Contracting Industry, by encouraging and supporting high quality training and qualifications"
The IETA vision is:
"By fully understanding our role and valuing the service we offer, IETA will be the natural first point of contact for training related matters through its customers"
• IETA is the sole provider nationally of work based learning for young people in Thermal Insulation
• IETA has approved assessment centre status through Edexcel
• IETA supports companies who employ and train apprentices by means of incentive grants
