How does the course work?
There are no exams to be taken during the course, you will work through your assignments which will be marked by your personal tutor. They are there to support you throughout the course and will be your main contact for any issues or questions that you may have. This will mainly be through email/online feedback, but you can schedule a call if you want to speak with them directly.

Once you have completed your course you will receive a hard copy and digital copy of your certificate. There are no additional fees for certificates except for replacement hard copies which will cost £25.

The CAVA is the most comprehensive assessor qualification and will allow you to assess occupational competence and vocational skills, both in a work and learning environment. Don’t confuse CAVA with TAQA, that is an umbrella term for Training, Assessing and Quality Assurance courses.

To become as assessor, you need to have experience and occupational competence in the area which you want to assess, along with an assessor qualification.

Once you gain this qualification you will be a fully qualified assessor and able to assess in your subject area. You can then work for colleges, training providers, apprenticeship providers or on a freelance/self employed basis. There is no subject specific assessor qualification eg CAVA in Early Years. This will cover any area which you are occupationally competent to assess.

Units

1. Understanding the principles and practices of assessment.
2. Assess vocational skills, knowledge and understanding.
3. Assess occupational competence in the work environment.
