ASET complies with the Learning and Development Strategy, approved 2002. Independent assessment is via external verification procedures documented in ‘ASET NVQ Centre Guidance 2005-2006’, which was banked with QCA as part of the agreed Part ‘A’ Submission to run NVQs. Centres will need to ensure robust quality assurance of assessment via internal verification procedures specified by ASET.
Common assessment methods include
• Observation
• Examining the evidence
• Questioning
• Professional discussion
• Witness testimonies
• Personal statements
Assessors and their learners should take advantage of instances when a piece of evidence may prove a learner’s competence across several elements of criteria.
