The IMI has adopted the assessment strategy as specified by Automotive Skills in full. Assessment is done in the form of on-line testing.

The IMI must stress thats it's training providers are free to use any valid assessment technique (as listed in the NVQ documentation) as appropriate to an individual's job role. IMI will not specify rigid assessment methods for each unit. Each piece of NVQ evidence is unique to an individual. Therefore it would be wrong to suggest exacting methods of assessment (unless specified by an NTO/SSC). Such instructions would go against the holistic approach to NVQs.
All units are mandatory.
