As mentioned, the PSS document clearly states where SO and AC are tested in formative and summative assessment activities. Formative assessments always allow for assessment of all AC in order to assist the facilitator and learner to determine the readiness of the learner for summative assessment. Provision is made in the Learner assessment guide for inclusion of the formative assessment workbooks as part of the proof needed for final judgement of competence. Final summative assessments The material is presented with two options: As a full qualification The material is presented as individual unit standards, grouped together in modules according to exit level outcomes Together with this, the learner then has to complete summative assessments based on the exit level outcomes of the qualification. In this case the individual summative assessments based on unit standards will not be used. As skills programmes The material is presented as individual unit standards, grouped together in modules according to exit level outcomes. Together with this, the learner has to complete summative assessments based on individual unit standards. In this case, the final summative assessment based on exit level outcomes is ignored. Learner support, roles and responsibilities This is stated in every learner guide as stated below. WELCOME TO THE LEARNING PROGRAMME Follow along in the guide as the training practitioner takes you through the material. Make notes and sketches that will help you to understand and remember what you have learnt. Take notes and share information with your colleagues. Important and relevant information and skills are transferred by sharing!
