How is the qualification graded and assessed?
The overall grade for the qualification is a ‘pass’. The learner must achieve all the required units within the specified qualification structure.
To pass a unit the learner must:
• achieve all the specified learning outcomes
• satisfy all the assessment criteria by providing sufficient and valid evidence for each criterion
• show that the evidence is their own.
The qualification is designed to be assessed:
• in the workplace or
• in conditions resembling the workplace, as specified in the Assessment Strategy for the sector, or
• as part of a training programme.
Assessment Requirements/Strategy
The Assessment Strategy for this qualification has been included in Annexe E. It has been developed by Semta in partnership with employers, training providers, awarding organisations and the regulatory authorities. The assessment strategy includes details on:
• criteria for defining realistic working environments
• roles and occupational competence of assessors, expert witnesses, internal verifiers and standards verifiers
• quality control of assessment
• evidence requirements.
Evidence of competence may come from:
• current practice where evidence is generated from a current job role
• a programme of development where evidence comes from assessment opportunities built into a learning/training programme whether at or away from the workplace
• the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) where a learner can demonstrate that they can meet the assessment criteria within a unit through knowledge, understanding or skills they already possess without undertaking a course of learning. They must submit sufficient, reliable and valid evidence for internal and standards verification purposes. RPL is acceptable for accrediting a unit, several units or a whole qualification
• a combination of these.
-
N025065 – Specification – Edexcel Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Installation and Commissioning (QCF) – Issue 1 – November 2010 © Edexcel Limited 2010

It is important that the evidence is:
Valid relevant to the standards for which competence is claimed
Authentic produced by the learner
Current sufficiently recent to create confidence that the same skill, understanding or knowledge persist at the time of the claim
Reliable indicates that the learner can consistently perform at this level
Sufficient fully meets the requirements of the standards.
Types of evidence
To successfully achieve a unit the learner must gather evidence which shows that they have met the required standard in the assessment criteria. Evidence can take a variety of different forms including the following examples:
• direct observation of the learner’s performance by their assessor
• outcomes from oral or written questioning
• products of the learner’s work
• personal statements and/or reflective accounts
• outcomes from simulation, where permitted by the assessment strategy
• professional discussion
• assignment, project/case studies
• authentic statements/witness testimony
• expert witness testimony
• reflective accounts
• evidence of Recognition of Prior Learning.
Learners can use one piece of evidence to prove their knowledge, skills and understanding across different assessment criteria and/or across different units. It is, therefore, not necessary for learners to have each assessment criterion assessed separately. Learners should be encouraged to reference the assessment criteria to which the evidence relates.
Evidence must be made available to the assessor, internal verifier and Edexcel standards verifier. A range of recording documents is available on the Edexcel website www.edexcel.com. Alternatively, centres may develop their own.
Additional requirements
The Joint Awarding Body and the SSC Working Practices Group have identified additional requirements that are needed to assess and quality assure qualifications placed on the QCF that use NVQ within their title. These requirements are shown in Annexe D: Additional requirements for qualifications that use the title NVQ within the QCF.

Centre recognition and approval
Centre recognition
Centres that have not previously offered Edexcel qualifications need to apply for and be granted centre recognition as part of the process for approval to offer individual qualifications. New centres must complete both a centre recognition approval application and a qualification approval application.
Existing centres will be given ‘automatic approval’ for a new qualification if they are already approved for a qualification that is being replaced by the new qualification and the conditions for automatic approval are met. Centres already holding Edexcel approval are able to gain qualification approval for a different level or different sector via Edexcel online.
Approvals agreement
All centres are required to enter into an approvals agreement which is a formal commitment by the head or principal of a centre to meet all the requirements of the specification and any linked codes or regulations. Edexcel will act to protect the integrity of the awarding of qualifications, if centres do not comply with the agreement. This could result in the suspension of certification or withdrawal of approval.
Quality assurance
Detailed information on Edexcel’s quality assurance processes is given in Annexe B.
What resources are required?
Each qualification is designed to support learners working in the Engineering sector. Physical resources need to support the delivery of the qualification and the assessment of the learning outcomes and must be of industry standard. Centres must meet any specific resource requirements outlined in Annexe E: Assessment Requirements Strategy. Staff assessing the learner must meet the requirements within the overarching assessment strategy for the sector.

The unit title is accredited on the QCF and this form of words will appear on the learner’s Notification of Performance (NOP).
All units and qualifications within the QCF have a level assigned to them, which represents the level of achievement. There are nine levels of achievement, from Entry level to level 8. The level of the unit has been informed by the QCF level descriptors and, where appropriate, the NOS and/or other sector/professional.
All units have a credit value. The minimum credit value is one, and credits can only be awarded in whole numbers. Learners will be awarded credits when they achieve the unit.
A notional measure of the substance of a qualification. It includes an estimate of the time that might be allocated to direct teaching or instruction, together with other structured learning time, such as directed assignments, assessments on the job or supported individual study and practice. It excludes learner-initiated private study.
This provides a summary of the purpose of the unit.
The assessment/evidence requirements are determined by the SSC. Learners must provide evidence for each of the requirements stated in this section.
Learning outcomes state exactly what a learner should know, understand or be able to do as a result of completing a unit.
The assessment criteria of a unit specify the standard a learner is expected to meet to demonstrate that a learning outcome, or a set of learning outcomes, has been achieved.
Learners must reference the type of evidence they have and where it is available for quality assurance purposes. The learner can enter the relevant key and a reference. Alternatively, the learner and/or centre can devise their own referencing system.
This provides a summary of the assessment methodology to be used for the unit.
The learner should use this box to indicate where the evidence can be obtained eg portfolio page number.
The learner should give the date when the evidence has been provided.
This code is a unique reference number for the unit.

Unit 1: Handing over and confirming completion of installation or commissioning activities
Unit reference number: D/601/0547
QCF level: 3
Credit value: 20
Guided learning hours: 35
Unit summary
This unit covers the skills and knowledge needed to prove the competences required to hand over equipment that has been installed or commissioned, to the appropriate person, prior to it entering service. Following the installation activity, the learner will be required to either set up the equipment and hand it over to another person to complete the required commissioning activities, or to complete the commissioning operation themselves. In either of these cases, this will involve checking that all the equipment and safety devices are operable and correctly set and/or calibrated, and that the equipment functions, safely and correctly, to the required specification. Following commissioning, and in addition to the above, checks for full operational requirements and production specifications, including run rate, are to be carried out before final handover to the appropriate person.
Assessment requirements/evidence requirements
This unit must be assessed in a work environment and must be assessed in accordance with the ‘Semta Assessment Strategy’. Detailed information is in Annexe E.
Assessment methodology
Learners can enter the types of evidence they are presenting for assessment and the submission date against each assessment criterion. Alternatively, centre documentation should be used to record this information.

Unit 2: Complying with statutory regulations and organisational safety requirements
Unit reference number: A/601/5013
QCF level: 2
Credit value: 5
Guided learning hours: 35
Unit summary
This unit covers the skills and knowledge needed to prove the competences required to deal with statutory regulations and organisational safety requirements. It does not deal with specific safety regulations or detailed requirements, it does, however, cover the more general health and safety requirements that apply to working in an industrial environment.
The learner will be expected to comply with all relevant regulations that apply to their area of work, as well as their general responsibilities as defined in the Health and Safety at Work Act. The learner will need to be able to identify the relevant qualified first aiders and know the location of the first aid facilities. The learner will have a knowledge and understanding of the procedures to be adopted in the case of accidents involving injury and in situations where there are dangerous occurrences or hazardous malfunctions of equipment, processes or machinery. The learner will also need to be fully conversant with their organisation’s procedures for fire alerts and the evacuation of premises.
The learner will also be required to identify the hazards and risks that are associated with their job. Typically, these will focus on their working environment, the tools and equipment that they use, the materials and substances that they use, any working practices that do not follow laid-down procedures, and manual lifting and carrying techniques.
Assessment requirements/evidence requirements
This unit must be assessed in a work environment and must be assessed in accordance with the ‘Semta Assessment Strategy’. Detailed information is in Annexe E.
Assessment methodology
Learners can enter the types of evidence they are presenting for assessment and the submission date against each assessment criterion. Alternatively, centre documentation should be used to record this information.

Unit 3: Using and interpreting engineering data and documentation
Unit reference number: Y/601/5102
QCF level: 2
Credit value: 5
Guided learning hours: 25
Unit summary
This unit covers the skills and knowledge needed to prove the competences required to make effective use of text, numeric and graphical information, by interpreting and using technical information extracted from documents such as engineering drawings, technical manuals, reference tables, specifications, technical sales/marketing documentation, charts or electronic displays, in accordance with approved procedures. The learner will be required to extract the necessary information from the various documents, in order to establish and carry out the work requirements, and to make valid decisions about the work activities based on the information extracted.
Assessment requirements/evidence requirements
This unit must be assessed in a work environment and must be assessed in accordance with the ‘Semta Assessment Strategy’. Detailed information is in Annexe E.
Assessment methodology
Learners can enter the types of evidence they are presenting for assessment and the submission date against each assessment criterion. Alternatively, centre documentation should be used to record this information.
