Licensing documentation

On the following pages we have provided the main documentation that is required for the IRSE Licensing Scheme. 

Competence assessment checklists (CACs) are the primary documents used for assessing competence.  There are CACs for each licence category and can be found in the left hand menu navigation. 

The other documents are for licence applications, logbook preparation, procedures for the operation of the scheme, briefing notes containing details of scheme changes), and documents used by assessing agencies and by auditors.

There are also guidance documents concerning the operation of the licensing scheme and the requirements for train-borne train control systems.
