This course will help you become a productive and effective vocational assessor in your field after a 5 day course. You will have personal support and guidance to help you finish your Portfolio. It is designed for Service leavers wishing for a career in the training industry. NVQ Assessors support and assess learners that are working towards their National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs). An NVQ Assessor will assess and train learners in order for them to gain the occupational standards needed to achieve their qualification.
Service leavers completing the course will gain:
- The NVQ Assessors qualification, which will allow practitioners (on successful completion) to assess occupational competence in the work environment.
- The course will encourage trainees to assess students while they are working through observation, questioning, and interviewing those around the student.
- Each candidate will be provided with a portfolio containing sample documentation relating directly to the awarding body standards. Throughout the duration of the programme every candidate’s portfolio will be sampled by the internal verifier.
Significant out of hours work may be required.

Opportunities exist as an assessor/tutor in all occupational areas where vocational qualifications exist, for example construction, care, catering, engineering, retail and hairdressing. Employment can also be held at a training provider or college or as an in-house assessor for a large organisation where staff complete vocational qualifications.
This course will give you the underpinning knowledge/resources you will require to conduct the role of an assessor.
