Course Overview

Earn a Recognised Certificate in Vocational Assessment.

The NOCN Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement is a vocational qualification designed for learners who want to become confident, effective assessors. It enables learners to demonstrate practical skills, knowledge, and understanding required for assessment roles in both workplace and training environments. This qualification is a 15-credit programme with a Total Qualification Time (TQT) of 150 hours, including 84 Guided Learning Hours (GLH).

Developed with sector representatives and subject matter experts, these qualifications align with the Learning and Development National Occupational Standards (NOS) and meet current industry expectations. They equip learners with the skills needed to progress into assessment roles or further education within the training and education sector. The qualification also reflects the latest guidance from the Education & Training Foundation, ensuring learners meet modern assessment and quality assurance standards with confidence.
