Overview
What is a TAQA Award?
A TAQA Award is an award in Training, Assessment and Quality Assurance. This award replaces the old A1/A2 Assessor awards.
How long is the course?
The course is for 13 weeks. Out of the 13 weeks you will attend a centre for four weeks to study the TAQA and assess people. The remaining nine weeks will involve practicals at a work place assessing or in contact with two learners.
Where can I work when I have my award?
When you have qualified, you can find work in colleges of Higher Education or you could work for a training provider. Other options are becoming a self-employed assessor or you could do the Award in Education and Training course and become a teacher in a college.
Work at your own pace.
Candidates work at their own pace and can complete the award in two weeks to twelve months, with an average being three-months. This award does not require 10-12 weeks attendance at a college, so is very suitable for people who work shifts. The online system provides 24/7 access to the assignments and assessor feedback.
All of your assignments are completed and stored online and, as such, can be accessed from any venue with access to the internet. This means you can complete your award from work or home.
There is no requirement to write an essay. The Award is broken down into small bite sized chunks making it achievable for busy people.
Our assessors recognise that each candidate is unique and plan person-centred progress throughout with regular access to a personal-assessor. This is ideal for those who are nervous, or who have not completed formal education for a while, or who are just simply busy.
