This qualification has adaptation applied to delivery and assessment. We have worked as part of a Joint Awarding Organisation Quality Group and with Skills for Care and Skills for Health to agree adaptations.

Students will need to prepare a portfolio of evidence. We encourage centres to review our guidance on the types of evidence, and evidence capture, that we permit including e.g. the use of video, photos and other digital means of demonstrating knowledge.

Students are still required to be assessed in the workplace, but the focus should be on learning outcomes and evidencing competence.
