The candidate is required to present evidence of competence taken from their everyday job. The assessment is carried out by a qualified assessor who is experienced in the same area of work.
Entry Requirements
There are no formal entry requirements although your role must entail sufficient complexity and autonomy to enable you to provide evidence of competency at this level.
