The main thing with NVQ is to read the standards carefully and make sure that your written evidence statements cover as much of the standards as possible.

I assess the NHS Cadets at work to NVQ 2/3

Hi John. The CACHE was gained in 2001. Does this make a difference??

Unfortunately Learning Direct want more than all the others put together.

Good luck

Jamin:
Can she not apply for a position (if there is one available) and then the school should pay for it as part of CPD.

Im not sure if this is the same for assistants or just teaching staff, but a lot of qualifications require you to be in the position before you can start the course!

Im a lecturer who had no teaching qualifications, but i'm being provided with the training and will acheive the qualifications required as part of the job.
