- Verbal Assessments: During the course of the day, candidates will be continually verbally assessed by the trainer using working examples and scenarios to determine the delegates' understanding of a specific topic.
- Practical Assessments: In addition to the test carried out in module 1, all delegates will be monitored by the trainer throughout the practical sessions. Any concerns will be addressed by delegate and trainer on a continual basis. The trainer will use practical tasks to assess the delegates' competence and understanding.
