Workplace assessment is the heart of an NVQ. Rather than an exam, a qualified assessor sees you working, talks to you about what you are doing and reviews your evidence. Together these show you can do the job to the standard.
Some assessment can also be done remotely through video calls and an online portfolio. Read what evidence you need and what a competence-based qualification is.
A workplace assessment is your chance to show the assessor real work. Small planning errors can waste the visit.
For a carpentry NVQ, you might arrange for the assessor to watch you hang doors and fit ironmongery on a plot. You would brief them at the cabin, show the RAMS, then work as normal while answering their questions. Afterwards, ask what evidence is still missing.
Tell us your trade and what you do on site. We will match you to the right NVQ, book your assessor and help with your card when you finish.
See NVQ coursesCall 0208 099 4324It depends on the NVQ and your evidence. Many people have a handful of visits.
Observation should happen in a real work setting. Questioning can happen anywhere.
Work as you normally would. The assessor is checking your usual standard, not a performance.
Visits need the site's agreement, so speak to your manager early.
