The scheme will register Painting and Decorating Apprentices who are employed by members of the Scottish Decorators' Federation and is open to all companies who employ painting and decorating apprentices.

A registration fee of £35 will be collected by SPADAC which will ensure the registration for life of the Apprentice/Trade person, identifying a period of time for a Skills Test and the holding of qualification information.

SPADAC working in partnership with ConstructionSkills will inform ConstructionSkills to book Apprentices onto a Skills Test only if the Apprentice on the booking-on-form is listed on the SPADAC registration list.

ConstructionSkills will inform the employer of the date, time and location of the test. It is the employer's responsibility to inform the Apprentice of these details and accept the test.

SPADAC working in partnership with SQA Awarding Body will result the Skill Test to the Awarding Body when informed by ConstructionSkills of the result and include time served criteria prior to resulting.

SPADAC working in partnership with ConstructionSkills will ensure that Apprentices who fail the Skills Test are re-allocated a test and employers and apprentices are informed.
