During the guidance process the candidate prepares a portfolio, which is assessed by a committee. If the portfolio submitted by the candidate contains  authentic, valid and adequate proof of the knowledge,  skills and competences defined in the occupational standard, the committee may:

  • validate the contents of the occupational standard in full,  
  • validate the contents of the occupational standard in part and define the  knowledge, skills and competence to be verified,  
  • refuse to validate any of the contents of the occupational standard because the candidate  has not provided proof of any of the knowledge, skills and competences defined in the  occupational standard, in which case it will verify  the occupational standard in full.  

METHODS OF VERIFICATION OF VOCATIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS  

  • Practical verification with an oral presentation.
