Qualification title: NVQ Extended Diploma in Engineering Technical Support (QCF) Qualification type: Assessment How is the qualification delivered? Competence based qualifications are undertaken in the learner’s workplace. The PEO units must be delivered in a realistic work environment, before the Level 3 units are undertaken in the learner’s workplace. How is the qualification assessed? The qualification is assessed by:  portfolio of assessment  verbal/written questioning  witness testimony  assessor observations. Performance evidence must be the main form of evidence gathered. In order to demonstrate consistent competent performance for a unit, a minimum of three different examples of performance of the unit activity will be required. It is recommended that where possible evidence is gathered holistically and that the assessment evidence for the mandatory units is gathered during the performance of the optional units.
