Description

Once learners enrol, they are issued their login details and welcome email - providing them with access to learning resources, assignments and documentation. For the observation assessment, learners will need to submit documented evidence (using our provided witness statement forms) to the online portal that you will have 24/7 access to. Then a qualified assessor will review the learners work and provide feedback as required. Once all assessments are passed, work is submitted to the awarding body to determine whether the learner is awarded the nationally recognised Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (RQF) (New A1 Assessors Award) qualification.

The three units that all learners must complete to gain this qualification are:

  • Understanding the principles and practices of assessment
  • Assess occupational competence in the work environment
  • Assess vocational skills, knowledge and understanding


Total Qualification Time

This is an estimate of the total length of time it is expected that a learner will typically take to achieve and demonstrate the level of attainment necessary for the award of the qualification i.e. to achieve all learning outcomes.

Total Qualification Time is comprised of GLH and an estimate of the number of hours a learner is likely to spend in preparation, study or any other learning including assessment, which takes place as directed by, but not under the supervision of a lecturer, supervisor or tutor. The credit value, where given, for a qualification is determined by TQT, as one credit corresponds to 10 hours of learning.

Total Qualification Time for this qualification is 150 hours.

Guided Learning Hours

These hours are made up of all real time contact time, guidance or supervision of a learner by a lecturer, supervisor, tutor, trainer or other appropriate provider of education or training.

GLH for this qualification is 84 hours.

Assessment Methods

The qualification will be assessed through a combination of written essays, a portfolio of evidence and observation of occupational competence. All units, assignments and learning materials for the course can be accessed through our online learning platform. Students have 12 months access to the online learning platform where they may study entirely at their own pace. The observations and professional discussions should be completed within a suitable environment and should be carried out by a qualified observer.

Asad asked:

I tutor students online for GCSE, A Level and BTECH. How would I be able to satisfy the requirements for the practical aspect of the course?

Answer:

Hi Asad, you would be expected to demonstrate how you can assess occupational competence (work based) and vocational skills and knowledge. Your GCSE, A Level and BTECH would be useful for vocational skills and knowledge. However, to complete the requirements of the assessment of occupational competence refers to the assessment of actual work place tasks. Thank you.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
