Course Overview

The Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement is for practitioners who assess knowledge and/or skills in vocationally related subject areas and who use the following assessment methods: assessments in simulated environments, skills tests, oral and written questions, assignments, projects, case studies and RPL. This may take place in training workshops, classrooms or other learning environments. 

The Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement consists of one theory unit which assesses a candidate's knowledge of the principles and practices of assessment and one practical unit which assesses a candidate assessors' competence in assessing a learner's vocational skills, knowledge and understanding in contexts other than a work environment. These assessments will be observed. 

This course is for someone who is assessing at least 2 learners regulary on a recognised qualification.

You will need to have a professional qualification and/or have demonstrated occupational competence acceptable to your internal quality assurer. You need to be part of an assessment team, have access to a minimum of two learners who are undertaking a vocational programme in your area of expertise. You need to attend standardisation meetings and generally comply with both internal and external quality assurance procedures.

After successful completion of the Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement, once you have assessed for an appropriate length of time, you may wish to progress to an internal quality assurance (IQA) qualification.
