Trade Events
Attending CARTERS’ trade events will help you gain product and technical knowledge from key industry suppliers – check out our events calendar here.If you’re considering becoming licenced, you’re still welcome to come along to the events but you must currently hold your licence to gain the LBP points from attending.
Recording your points
To keep your license, you’ll need to complete and submit your records of learning every second year. We know it’s tough to keep up with paper work, so to make it easier you can use your CARTERS Trade Diary, or use MBIE’s skills maintenance form.Find out more about the Skills Maintenance schedule by viewing the Guidance for Licensed Building Practitioners document.
