Assessment method

How competence is assessed

Assessment is competency-based: you are judged against every performance criterion in the unit, using several types of evidence.

Practical demonstration

You perform real tasks in the workshop while the assessor observes against a checklist.

Oral questioning

Questions confirm you understand the why behind the task, including safety.

Written test

Short written questions check underpinning knowledge for each unit.

Portfolio of evidence

Work samples, logbook and training records support the assessment decision.

Each unit is judged Competent or Not Yet Competent. When you are competent in all units of a level, BTEB issues a National Skill Certificate. If you complete only some units, you receive a Statement of Attainment (SOA) for those units. You may appeal any assessment decision under our Assessment Quality Policy.
