Assessment and certification

You build a portfolio from real assessments you carry out, observed and reviewed by our assessors. Our centre assessors review the evidence and carry out internal verification, and ProQual provides external quality assurance. The result is either Pass or Fail.

An assessor guides you through the evidence you need and gives feedback as your portfolio develops.

Career development and progression

The certificate supports work as a vocational assessor and progression to the ProQual Level 4 Award in Internal Quality Assurance.

Eligibility and entry review

Every ProQual registration starts with an initial assessment. We review your CV, job role and existing qualifications to confirm that the Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement suits you and that you can produce the evidence it requires.

If another qualification would suit you better, we tell you before you register.

How study and learner support work

The qualification lists 84 guided learning hours and 150 hours of total qualification time. Guided learning means time with tutors and assessors; the rest is independent reading, research and writing.

Your assessor agrees an assessment plan with you, explains the evidence needed for each unit and reviews your progress regularly. Support is provided online, by phone and WhatsApp in Pakistan Standard Time (PKT), with workplace visits or video observation where the units require it.

Portfolio and assessment evidence

Evidence can include workplace documents you have produced, observation of your work, witness statements, professional discussion and written answers, depending on the units. All evidence must be genuine and your own.

Our assessors judge the evidence against every assessment criterion, our internal quality assurer samples the decisions, and ProQual carries out external quality assurance before certification.
