What's involved?

The course consists of two classroom days covering the theoretical elements of the course and one observational visit.

The entire theoretical unit is completed in the classroom days, and your teacher will set you up to make the rest of the course as straightforward as possible.

The practical element requires learners to carry out four assessments on two different employees in their workplace. Learners complete a portfolio of the assessment plans, evidence and feedback.

What you get out of it

On completion of the course you will gain a nationally recognised assessing certificate, with the flexibility to assess in both the work and classroom environments.

The aim of the course is to give candidates the skills and knowledge to guide others through their learning process with constructive and accurate feedback. Assessing is an ever growing field and this qualification is likely to open up several employment opportunities.
