As this is a remote learning provision, attendance at the tutorial sessions and the assessment methods require learners to have access to a computer. Achieving this qualification is based on vocationally relevant assignments linked to each unit, which are issued throughout the course. Learners will be informed of when the assignments are issued and the submission deadlines. Completing the assignments will allow learners to create a portfolio of evidence, enabling them to demonstrate achievement of all the learning outcomes at the standards specified by the assessment criteria associated with each unit. This, in turn, will lead to the successful completion of the qualification.
