Qualification Information

The OCN NI Assessor qualifications have been designed for learners who are aspiring to or currently undertaking an assessor role. The OCN NI Level 3 Award in Understanding the Principles and Practices of Assessment is a knowledge based qualification suitable for those who seek to gain an understanding of the principles and practices of assessment without a requirement to demonstrate competence as an assessor. The OCN NI Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement is suitable for assessors who deliver vocationally related qualifications within the RQF and assess vocational skills, knowledge and understanding in an environment other than the work environment (eg workshop, classroom or other training environments). In order to achieve the Level 3 Award in Understanding the Principles and Practices of Assessment Processes, the learner must complete a total of 3 credits (the one mandatory unit). OCN NI have a number of resources that are available to assist in the delivery of this qualification. To access our resources, please go to www.ocnambition.org.uk.
