The ProQual assessor suite of qualifications provides nationally recognised qualifications for candidates whose role involves assessing competence based units or qualifications:

• Level 3 Award in Assessing Competence in the Work Environment

• Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement

• Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement

​

These qualifications are aimed at assessors in a variety of contexts, those assessing in the workplace and those assessing in alternative environments such as workshops, classrooms and other training environments. Each qualification includes a unit that covers all the essential knowledge and understanding that assessors need, plus one or more units that describe competent practice. This offers flexibility and a greater potential to meet the needs of assessors working in different environments. Aims:

 

• To assess the candidate assessor’s knowledge and understanding of the principles and practices that underpin assessment.

• To assess the candidate assessor’s performance in assessing occupational competence in an individual’s work environment (Award in Assessing Competence in the Work Environment).

• To assess the candidate assessor’s performance in assessing vocational skills, knowledge and understanding in environments other than the workplace – for example workshops, classrooms or other training environments (Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement)

​

There are no formal entry requirements for this qualification.

This course is completed online through our online portal followed by a 30 minute observation of assessing learners.
