V1 Award in Internal Verification
V1 Award in Conducting Internal
Quality Assurance of the Assessment Process
Introduction
The V1 Award is aimed at occupationally competent individuals who wish to verify assessments made by Assessors who are assessing learners working to achieve National Vocational Qualifications.
The qualification aims are to ensure that the Internal Verifier is able to:
- Evaluate the internal assessment process
- Monitor and review internal assessment audit systems
- Carry out related internal verification activities - including sample planning, sampling portfolios, running standardisation activities, record keeping etc
Content
The V1 Qualification comprises covers:
- An overview of NVQs
- The role of the internal verifier and definition of verification
- Outline of verification strategy
- Identification of assessor needs and support
- Allocation of learners to assessors
- Undertaking observations of assessor practice
- Feedback skills
- Liaison with external verifier
- Internal quality assurance
Assessment and Evidence
The V1 assessment will require the student to demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of the verification process and their ability to competently verify.
The V1 student will be required to produce a portfolio of evidence demonstrating their ability to competently verify the work of A1 assessors.
What are the Entry Requirements?
To undertake the V1 Award you will need to have occupational competence as determined by the sector in which you wish to work and have responsibility for at least 2 NVQ Assessors. Individuals accessing the Award must hold the A1 or an equivalent i.e D32/D33. An initial assessment will be undertaken before you enter the Award.
How Long Does it Take to Achieve?
The initial induction phase is one day of classroom-based tuition. This is followed by your workplace assessments and a second one-day workshop to complete the award. The time frame for completion of the course is largely down to the candidate – but the minimum time would be ten weeks. In reality this award will take 12-18 months to achieve.
How Much Does it Cost
The cost is £595 + vat – this covers tea/coffee, certification and all associated instructor costs.
We can also run this award at your venue for a total cost of £3200 + vat for up to six delegates. Additional delegates – to a maximum of 12 - would be charged at £450 + vat each.
