How will I be assessed?

StudentAndLecturer

Assessment will vary from programme to programme. It can be continuous, in the form of practical observations, written evidence and reports, or based on oral questioning.

You will be given a unique pin number on enrolment which will allow you to access all your; personal files, course materials, the e-portal, your assessments and keep track of your progress against targets.

E-assessment 'in-College' for NVQ Beauty Therapy

Qualifications are achieved through continuous assessment in both theory and practical treatments. These are undertaken in the salon and nail bar using e-assessment methods. These could be digitally recorded professional discussions, video clips and stills photographs. An e-portfolio is automatically compiled as part of the evidence for the awarding body, which will contain your projects and evidence of practical abilities. You simply upload all of your coursework to your personal account, and your assessors review and mark your work at any time.

E-assessment in the Workplace

After enrolment you will be assigned a personal tutor and assessor who, for the duration of the programme, will visit you in the workpace and assess you using e-assessment methods, such as digitally recorded professional discussions, video clips and stills photographs. An e-portfolio is automatically compiled and forms a key part of the evidence for the awarding body. This portfolio will contain all your projects and clear evidence of your practical abilities. You simply upload your coursework to your personal account,  as and when you complete an assignment, and your assessors review and mark your work at any time.
