Following completion of training, supported by their Falck allocated Assessor, assessor – candidates will return to their workplace with a requirement to conduct assessments of two candidates, each performing two tasks which result in a total of 4 assessments.
The assessment evidence generated by assessor – candidates in the workplace should cover all of the requirements set out within the L&D9Di Unit, to include:
• Notes relating to pre-assessment planning discussions
• Assessment Plans agreed with the candidates
• Records detailing assessment decisions
• Feedback records used to convey progression / achievement to the candidates
• Records of the standardisation activities the assessor – candidate has been involved in
Once completed the evidence of assessment should be submitted to the Falck allocated assessor for review and assessment against the performance and knowledge criteria within the L&D9Di Unit with feedback and guidance given on further evidence (where required). There is no end date for this however it is recommended that this be achieved within 12 months from the date of the 1st day of the 2 day Induction to ensure that the application of learning is considered current.
