the rules of combination (RoC). The RoC allows for flexibility and transferability.

The ROC will specify:

The total credit value of the qualification

The amount of credit that must be achieved within specific groupings of units (e.g.

Mandatory, Optional Unit, and Optional groups)

The minimum credit which must be achieved at the level or above the level of the qualification

The Total Qualification Time (TQT)

The title, Unit Regulation Number and BIIAB Unit number for each unit, alongside its

level, credit, and Guided Learning Hours (GLH)

Any barred units (units that cannot be taken together as part of the qualification).

When choosing the appropriate route for a learner or group of learners, it is the responsibility of the centre to ensure the rules of combination are adhered to.

9. Assessment

Overview of assessment strategy

The qualification contains units that combine knowledge and skills, units that focus on knowledge and understanding and competence units. Competence units are assessed following NVQ principles. The following units focus on knowledge and understanding:

PFSSC The principles of food safety supervision for catering

LSRPLH Legal and social responsibilities of a Personal Licence Holder BIIAB has developed a multiple choice test for these units. The qualification contains units which provide the learner with the ability to obtain knowledge and skills which can later be demonstrated in the workplace. These units are assessed by Assessment Activity Modules (AAMs) and Assessment Knowledge Modules (AKMs). The AAMs are internally marked assessments, containing a series of activities, marked and internally verified by the centre and with external verification by the BIIAB External Quality Assurer (EQA). The AKMs are internally marked assessments, containing a series of questions, marked and internally verified by the centre and with external verification by the BIIAB External Quality Assurer (EQA). Assessments provided by BIIAB will ensure that effective learning has taken place and that learners have the opportunity to:

Meet the assessment criteria

Achieve the learning outcomes. Alternatively, centres may wish to devise their own assessments for the knowledge units. If so Centres must obtain approval for any Centre Devised Assessments before their use. Please contact BIIAB for details of the Centre Devised Assessment process and procedure. Assessment process Assessment is the process used to judge the competence, of a learner, against set standards. The assessor is the person who is responsible for determining learners’ competence. The assessor may be a work place supervisor or an external person who is trained and qualified, or working towards a qualification relevant to the assessor role. Assessors base their judgement on performance and decide how it compares to the national standard. The assessor will also ask questions based on the knowledge required to do the work, to ascertain the knowledge and understanding of the learner. When the required units have been completed and the assessor is satisfied that the learner has met the national standard, a recommendation for a certificate will be made.

An Internal Quality Assurer (IQA) is responsible for the quality assurance of the qualifications within the training organisation and will provide advice, guidance and support to the assessors. IQAs also ensure that the assessors apply the standards consistently and fairly. The IQA will see review the portfolio of evidence during the assessment process. An External Quality Assurer (EQA), who is appointed by BIIAB, will verify the assessment and internal verification decisions involved in the development of the portfolio. The EQA will quality assure the qualification process, which ensures that certification of the qualification is reliable, consistent and to the national standard, by checking the consistency of assessments made by the training provider, and across training providers. Assessment Strategy The Assessment Strategy has been designed by People 1st . While BIIAB has not itself designed the strategy it agrees with the principles and their suitability as an Assessment Strategy for this qualification, it has agreed that this strategy will be applied for this qualification and it has agreed that it will monitor the compliance of BIIAB centres offering this qualification against the criteria. As such all centres and their assessment must adhere to the current People 1st designed assessment strategy for this qualification. The assessment strategy for this qualification can be seen in the section which follows and it provides details of the key requirements for the qualification and the assessor, verifiers delivering, quality assuring and certificating the qualification. People 1st Assessment Strategy Occupational expertise of assessors and verifiers The requirements relating to the occupational expertise of assessors and verifiers is set out in Table 1. Guidance on additional qualifications and / or training relevant to assessors and verifiers can be found in Table 2.

Table 3 - Continuous Professional Development for Assessors and Verifiers It is necessary for assessors and verifiers to maintain a record of evidence of their continuous professional development (CPD). This is necessary to maintain currency of skills and understanding of the occupational area(s) being assessed, and can be achieved in a variety of ways. It should be a planned process, reviewed on an annual basis, for example as part of an individual’s performance review. Assessors and verifiers should select CPD methods that are appropriate to meeting their development needs. The following provides an example of a variety of methods that can be utilised for CPD purposes.

Updating occupational expertise Internal and external work placements

Work experience and shadowing (e.g. within associated departments)

External visits to other organisations

Updated and new training and qualifications

Training sessions to update skills

Visits to educational establishments

Trade fairs

Keeping up to date with sector developments and new legislation

Relevant sector websites

Membership of professional bodies

Papers and documents on legislative change

Networking events

Seminars, conferences, workshops, membership of committees / working parties (e.g. People 1st events)

Staff development days

Standardising and best practice in assessment

Regular standardisation meetings with colleagues

Sharing best practice through internal meetings, newsletters, email circulars

Comparison of assessment and verification in other sectors

Attending awarding organisation meetings / seminars

Assessment People 1st advocate the integration of national occupational standards within employers’ organisations in order to achieve a national level of competence across the sector’s labour market. As such assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications will, ideally, take place within the workplace and assessment should, where possible, be conducted by the candidate’s supervisors and/or line managers. People 1st recognise, however, that it is not always feasible for candidates to be assessed in the workplace and as such it permits the use of assessment within Realistic Working Environments (RWE). Additionally, where sector employers

Page 15: Qualification Handbook BIIAB Level 3 Diploma in Food and ... · The title, Unit Regulation Number and BIIAB Unit number for each unit, alongside its level, ... within Food and Beverage

BIIAB Level 3 Diploma in Food and Beverage

Service Supervision Handbook

Version 2 © BIIAB January 2018 14 www.biiab.org

do not have the infrastructure to manage assessment independently, it values the role of peripatetic assessors to support the assessment process. Within these parameters, People 1st expects that:

the majority of assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications will be based on performance evidence, i.e. direct observation, outputs of work and witness testimony within the workplace or an RWE approved by an awarding organisation, (see section 3.4 of People 1st Assessment Strategy).

opportunities to ascertain candidate’s accreditation of prior learning is maximised by early contact between the assessor and candidate and during initial assessment / induction period.

Simulation Simulation can only be used to assess candidates for the sector’s competence based units and qualifications where the opportunity to assess naturally occurring evidence is unlikely or not possible, for example assessment relating to health and safety, fire and emergency procedures. It should not include routine activities that must be covered by performance evidence. There are no People 1st units that can be solely achieved by simulation. In the case of imported units, where simulation is acceptable in the evidence requirements, it should only be used when performance evidence is unlikely to be generated through normal working practices. Appeals If learners are dissatisfied with an assessment outcome, they have the right to appeal. The main reasons for an appeal are likely to be:

Learners do not understand why they are not yet regarded as competent, because of unsatisfactory feedback from the assessor

Learners believe they are competent and that the assessor has misjudged them, or has failed to utilise some vital evidence.

BIIAB expects most appeals from candidates to be resolved within the centre. BIIAB will only consider a candidate’s appeal after the centre’s internal appeals procedure has been fully exhausted. For full details of the BIIAB’s appeals procedure please refer to www.biiab.org

10. Initial Assessment and Induction

Prior to the start of any programme it is recommended that centres should make an initial assessment of each learner. This is to ensure that the learners are entered for an appropriate type and level of qualification. The initial assessment should identify the specific training needs that the learner has, and the support and guidance that they may require when working towards their qualification. The centre must also identify any units the learner has already completed, or credits they have accumulated, relevant to the qualification. BIIAB suggests that centres provide an induction programme to ensure the learner fully understands the requirements of the qualification they will work towards, their responsibilities as a learner, and the responsibilities of the centre.
