Integrated assessment:
The assessment criteria in the unit standards are performance-based, assessing applied competence, rather than only underpinning knowledge, or only skills. The Critical Cross-field Outcomes are also achieved in the unit standards. In addition to the competence assessed to achieve the unit standards, learners must demonstrate that they can achieve the Outcomes in an integrated manner. They must deal effectively with different and random demands related to occupational and learning contexts, to qualify. Assessment approaches used should be appropriate for assessing applied competence. Integrated assessment is meaningful if there are clear relationships between the purpose statement, Exit Level Outcomes and integrated assessment of this qualification.
Learners who qualify must be able to integrate concepts, ideas and behaviours across unit standards to achieve the purpose of the qualification. Evidence (as specified in the associated assessment criteria) is required that the learner is able to achieve the Exit Level Outcomes of the qualification as a whole and in an integrated way, and thus its purpose, at the time of the award of the qualification.
Evidence of integration may be presented by learners when being assessed against the unit standards, and separate assessment for integration may not be necessary. Workplace experience can be recognised when assessing towards this qualification. Integrated assessment should include observable performance as well as the quality of thinking behind such performance. Formative assessment can be employed during learning towards the unit standards and during integration to achieve Exit Level Outcomes, to ensure that integration takes place when summative assessment is employed.
