The methods for assessing student performance can be broadly summarised under coursework by following instructions for coursework. 

Learners are required to write an assignment of each unit. Assignments are important part of learners’ work at the Centre. There are strict rules about:-

• Plagiarism – using another person’s words out of a book/ journal article/ conversation/ lecture without formally acknowledging it,
• Referencing – how to reference and refer to another person’s work in your written work so you avoid plagiarism,
• Word length of essays and reports,
• Presentation and style of a report, including the style of language used, and
• Learners are required to sign a declaration of authentication to confirm that the work is their own and that any assistance given and/or sources used have been acknowledged.

All learning outcomes must be assessed using assignment appropriate to the assessment of knowledge, understanding and skills. The Qualifications within this suite are vocational because they support a Learner’s career progression. Assessments will contain a question strand for each of the given unit’s Learning Outcomes. The assignment tasks will address the LO (Learning Outcome) and AC (Assessment Criteria) requirements. Within assignments there will always be requirements for Learner’s to engage with important and relevant theory that underpins the subject area

There must be valid, sufficient, and authentic evidence of all the assessment criteria.

Submitted assignments should be marked by an assessor. In order to pass a unit, a learner must achieve 40% marks in each assignment.

Assessors must plan, gather and then assess learner’s evidence according to level descriptors’ requirements and on the basis of Pass/Fail criteria.  These should be made available for internal verification to the centre Internal Quality Assurer (IQA).

EBMA External Quality Assurer (EQA) undertakes external moderation to monitor the assessment, internal moderation processes within the centre to make sure the assessment remains fit for purpose, and that the assessment process and practices by the centre continue to meet assessment standards requirements.
