Assessment method
Assessment is competency-based: you are judged against every performance criterion in the unit, using several types of evidence.
You perform real tasks in the workshop while the assessor observes against a checklist.
Questions confirm you understand the why behind the task, including safety.
Short written questions check underpinning knowledge for each unit.
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.
