Key features of the Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)

Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)

This qualification:

is nationally recognised

is based on the Hospitality National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Professional Cookery. The NOS, assessment requirements/strategy and qualification structures are owned by People 1st

has two routes.

Route 1: 'Craft Cuisine Endorsed by AAA' is supported by People 1st in conjunction with the Applied Ability Awards (AAA) National Committee, the governing body for the AAA. It includes the competency component of the Craft Cuisine Intermediate Apprenticeship as well as an integrated route to meeting the requirements of the AAA Foundation Chef certificate – please see AAA website for more details and associated fees www.aaawards.org.uk

Route 2: 'Craft Cuisine' is also supported by People 1st and equally includes the competency component of the Craft Cuisine Intermediate Apprenticeship.

There are different features, resources and fees associated with each of the two routes. Please see page 3 for details.

What is the Purpose of this qualification?

This qualification is designed for learners employed in hospitality roles such as Commis-Chefs, Demi-Chefs or Chefs-de-Partie who need to develop or consolidate their skills. Learners are required to take mandatory units which cover aspects of maintaining a safe, hygienic and secure working environment, working effectively as part of a hospitality team, maintaining, handling and cleaning knives, maintaining food safety in a hospitality environment, and preparing, cooking and finishing a wide range of basic dishes using a different ingredients, methods and techniques.

Two further mandatory units, to be taken at the end of the programme (Units 34 and 35), bring together the skills developed in the preceding units and the combination of these are assessed through an independent assessment.

Who is this qualification for?

This qualification is for all learners aged 16 and above who are capable of reaching the required standards.

Edexcel’s policy is that the qualification should:

be free from any barriers that restrict access and progression

ensure equality of opportunity for all wishing to access the qualification.

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

This qualification is applicable for people working in a wide range of hospitality and catering businesses, for example:

restaurants

gastro-pubs

hotels

cafés

contract caterers.

What are the benefits of this qualification (Route1 and Route 2) to the learner and the employer?

This is a work-based qualification which will allow learners to develop the wider range of craft cuisine skills that are essential for working as a chef under supervision in a professional kitchen. It will also independently assess the learner’s ability to demonstrate a combination of these skills in a professional kitchen environment as well as assessing a number of employability skills such as organisational skills, problem solving, communication skills and taking an interest in their own career development. This will provide evidence for both learners and employers as to the suitability for working in a professional kitchen under supervision.

Both routes 1 and 2 for the qualification provide the full range of skills and underpinning knowledge to meet the competency component of the BTEC Intermediate Apprenticeship in Craft Cuisine.

Both routes will require independent assessment of the Units 34 and 35. 'Practical Skills for a Craft Chef' and 'Preparing for Career Progression as a Craft Chef'. The assessment guidance linked to both QCF units on the Register for Regulated Qualifications stipulates that assessors must:

have current or previous experience as a senior, professional chef;

have had no involvement in the learner's training programme;

have had no known contact with the learner prior to the assessment;

operate independently of the learning provider.

Practical Skills for a Craft Chef (Unit 34), will require learners to demonstrate their knowledge of cooking skills through a practical cooking assessment, at a set time, and within given timescales.

Unit 35: Preparing for Career Progression as a Craft Chef, will require learners to demonstrate their commitment to working with food and cooking and to demonstrate their aptitude and ability for working under supervision in a professional kitchen.

Please note, assessments should take place in a professional kitchen. Where assessments cannot take place in a professional Kitchen, then a Realistic Working Environments (RWE) is also acceptable, in line with People 1st Assessment Strategy.

Additional Features/Benefits for Route 1: Craft Cuisine endorsed by AAA

Route 1 provides a joined up approach for aspiring chefs that wish to gain a BTEC Apprenticeship and the AAA approval and certificate. (This negates the need for learners to do the apprenticeship and then go to AAA independently which reduces duplication of presenting evidence and assessment).

Route 1 includes supporting materials that can be used by the learner, provider, employer and mentor to help create a smoother delivery throughout the apprenticeship.

Learners will have access to the AAA online resources which may be used to develop knowledge associated with professional cookery and craft cuisine skills as well as comprehensive, generic support materials to assist centres delivering competence qualifications available from the Edexcel website http://www.edexcel.com/

Providers will be provided with a comprehensive syllabus of recipes that demonstrate a combination of the skills developed throughout Units 1-33 to help prepare learners for the independent assessment.

Providers will be supported in assigning an in-house mentor for the aspiring chef to support the learners' skills and knowledge acquisition throughout their Apprenticeship programme, including Skills Scan documents to assess learner’s progress at the beginning and during their journey.

Learners will have their performance in a work-based situation in a specified time period assessed independently by two Chef Examiners appointed by the AAA National Committee.

Providers will have the convenience of the independent assessment of the two units being arranged for them.

Upon successful completion of the BTEC Apprenticeship in Craft Cuisine Route 1, learners will achieve the Apprenticeship Certificate* AND the Applied Ability Award (AAA) Certificate for Foundation Chef. Learners will also have the option to be listed on the AAA website as successful completers of the AAA Award.

The cost of Route 1 will cover standard Edexcel registration fees for the competence based qualification plus fees for the AAA assessment – please see the link in the Key Features section for more details on AAA.

Route 2: Craft Cuisine

Route 2 provides the competency component of the Craft Cuisine Intermediate apprenticeship.

Learners will have access to comprehensive, generic support materials to assist centres delivering competence qualifications available from the Edexcel website http://www.edexcel.com/

Upon successful completion of the BTEC Apprenticeship in Craft Cuisine Route 2, learners will be eligible for the Apprenticeship Certificate.*

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

5

The cost of Route 2 will cover standard Edexcel registration fees for the competence based qualification.

Providers will be responsible for ensuring the assessment of Units 34 and 35 meet the assessment requirements linked to both QCF units on the Register for Regulated Qualifications. Please note, providers will be expected to meet the costs associated with independent assessment.

* For claims against the SASE frameworks (those that include Functional Skills), centres will need to apply via the ACE Online Apprenticeship Certification System for the overarching Apprenticeship Certificates for their learners at ace.apprenticeships.org.uk. For claims against other frameworks, such as the Welsh Frameworks that include Essential Skills Wales, centres should apply direct to the SSC, People 1st.

What are the potential Job roles

The qualification is designed for learners working or intending to work as a Commis Chef, Demi Chef or Chef de Partie.

What progression opportunities are available to learners who achieve this qualification?

Learners will be able to progress onto the Edexcel Level 3 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF).

Learners will also be able to progress onto the Edexcel Level 3 qualifications in the Hospitality suite and the Edexcel BTEC Level 3 Nationals in Hospitality.

Further information is available in Annexe A.

How is the qualification graded and assessed?

The overall grade for this qualification is a ‘pass’. The learner must achieve all the required units.

To pass a unit the learner must:

achieve all the specified learning outcomes

satisfy all the assessment criteria by providing sufficient and valid evidence for each criterion

show that the evidence is their own.

The qualification is designed to be assessed:

in the workplace or

in conditions resembling the workplace, as specified in the assessment requirements/strategy for the sector, or

as part of a training programme.

Assessment for Units 1-33

Assessment requirements/strategy

The assessment requirements/strategy for Units 1-33 have been included in Annexe D. They have been developed by People 1st in partnership with employers, training providers, awarding organisations and the regulatory authorities. The assessment strategy includes details on:

criteria for defining realistic working environments

roles and occupational competence of assessors, expert witnesses, internal verifiers and standards verifiers

quality control of assessment

evidence requirements.

Evidence of competence may come from:

current practice where evidence is generated from a current job role

a programme of development where evidence comes from assessment opportunities built into a learning/training programme whether at or away from the workplace

the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) where a learner can demonstrate that they can meet the assessment criteria within a unit through knowledge, understanding or skills they already possess without undertaking a course of learning. They must submit sufficient, reliable and valid evidence for internal and standards verification purposes. RPL is acceptable for accrediting a unit, several units or a whole qualification

a combination of these.

Page 15: Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)€¦ · Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) 2 ... Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

9

It is important that the evidence is:

Valid relevant to the standards for which competence is claimed

Authentic produced by the learner

Current sufficiently recent to create confidence that the same skill, understanding or knowledge persist at the time of the claim

Reliable indicates that the learner can consistently perform at this level

Sufficient fully meets the requirements of the standards.

Types of evidence

To successfully achieve a unit the learner must gather evidence which shows that they have met the required standard in the assessment criteria. Evidence can take a variety of different forms including the examples below. Centres should refer to the assessment strategy for information about which of the following are permissible.

direct observation of the learner’s performance by their assessor (O)

outcomes from oral or written questioning (Q&A)

products of the learner’s work (P)

personal statements and/or reflective accounts (RA)

outcomes from simulation, where permitted by the assessment strategy (S)

professional discussion (PD)

assignment, project/case studies (A)

authentic statements/witness testimony (WT)

expert witness testimony (EPW)

evidence of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).

The abbreviations may be used for cross-referencing purposes.

Learners can use one piece of evidence to prove their knowledge, skills and understanding across different assessment criteria and/or across different units. It is, therefore, not necessary for learners to have each assessment criterion assessed separately. Learners should be encouraged to reference the assessment criteria to which the evidence relates.

Evidence must be made available to the assessor, internal verifier and Edexcel standards verifier. A range of recording documents is available on the Edexcel website www.edexcel.com. Alternatively, centres may develop their own.

Assessment for Units 34-35

Both routes 1 and 2 will require independent assessment of the units 34 and 35. 'Practical Skills for a Craft Chef' and 'Preparing for Career Progression as a Craft Chef'. The assessment guidance linked to both QCF units on the Register for Regulated Qualifications stipulates that assessors must:

have current or previous experience as a senior, professional chef;

have had no involvement in the learner's training programme;

have had no known contact with the learner prior to the assessment;

operate independently of the learning provider.

Unit 34: Practical Skills for a Craft Chef, will require learners to demonstrate their knowledge of cooking skills through a practical cooking assessment, at a set time, and within given timescales.

Unit 35: Preparing for Career Progression as a Craft Chef, will require learners to demonstrate their commitment to working with food and cooking and to demonstrate their aptitude and ability for working under supervision in a professional kitchen.

Please note, assessments can take place in a professional kitchen or in Realistic Working Environments (RWE) in line with People 1st Assessment Strategy.

Centre recognition and approval

Centre recognition

Centres that have not previously offered Edexcel qualifications need to apply for and be granted centre recognition as part of the process for approval to offer individual qualifications. New centres must complete both a centre recognition approval application and a qualification approval application.

Existing centres will be given ‘automatic approval’ for a new qualification if they are already approved for a qualification that is being replaced by the new qualification and the conditions for automatic approval are met. Centres already holding Edexcel approval are able to gain qualification approval for a different level or different sector via Edexcel online.

Approvals agreement

All centres are required to enter into an approvals agreement which is a formal commitment by the head or principal of a centre to meet all the requirements of the specification and any linked codes or regulations. Edexcel will act to protect the integrity of the awarding of qualifications, if centres do not comply with the agreement. This could result in the suspension of certification or withdrawal of approval.

Quality assurance

Detailed information on Edexcel’s quality assurance processes is given in Annexe B.

For Route 1, centres will need to arrange for independent assessment of units 33 and 34 by AAA Chef Examiners/assessors who meet the requirements linked to each of the QCF units. The qualification will be externally quality assured by the Standards Verification process.

For Route 2, centres will need to arrange for independent assessment by assessors who meet the requirements linked to each of the QCF units. The qualification will be externally quality assured by the Standards Verification process.

What resources are required?

This qualification is designed to support learners working in the hospitality industry. Physical resources need to support the delivery of the qualifications and the assessment of the learning outcomes and must be of industry standard. Centres must meet any specific resource requirements outlined in Annexe D: Assessment requirements/strategy.

The unit title is accredited on the QCF and this form of words will appear on the learner’s Notification of Performance (NOP).

This is the unit owner’s reference number for the specified unit.

This code is a unique reference number for the unit.

All units and qualifications within the QCF have a level assigned to them, which represents the level of achievement. There are nine levels of achievement, from Entry level to level 8. The level of the unit has been informed by the QCF level descriptors and, where appropriate, the NOS and/or other sector/professional.

All units have a credit value. The minimum credit value is one, and credits can only be awarded in whole numbers. Learners will be awarded credits when they achieve the unit.

A notional measure of the substance of a qualification. It includes an estimate of the time that might be allocated to direct teaching or instruction, together with other structured learning time, such as directed assignments, assessments on the job or supported individual study and practice. It excludes learner-initiated private study.

This provides a summary of the purpose of the unit.

The assessment/evidence requirements are determined by the SSC. Learners must provide evidence for each of the requirements stated in this section.

Learning outcomes state exactly what a learner should know, understand or be able to do as a result of completing a unit.

The assessment criteria of a unit specify the standard a learner is expected to meet to demonstrate that a learning outcome, or a set of learning outcomes, has been achieved.

Learners must reference the type of evidence they have and where it is available for quality assurance purposes. The learner can enter the relevant key and a reference. Alternatively, the learner and/or centre can devise their own referencing system.

This provides a summary of the assessment methodology to be used for the unit.

The learner should use this box to indicate where the evidence can be obtained eg portfolio page number.

The learner should give the date when the evidence has been provided.

Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing and Cooking Food

Unit code: 2GEN3/10

Unit reference number: D/601/6980

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 4

Guided learning hours: 32

Unit summary

This unit covers the main competencies needed for preparing and cooking food safely, and focuses on the four main areas of control – cooking, cleaning, chilling and preventing cross-contamination, in addition to supplies being satisfactory. It provides staff with a broad understanding of reviewing hazards and hazard procedures such that they are part of a team maintaining food safety. This unit is appropriate to staff that directly prepare and cook food.

Assessment methodology

This unit is assessed in the workplace or in conditions resembling the workplace. Learners can enter the types of evidence they are presenting for assessment and the submission date against each assessment criterion. Alternatively, centre documentation should be used to record this information.

d) oats

e) millet

f) wheat (bulgar, semolina, couscous)

Annexe B: Quality assurance

Key principles of quality assurance

A centre delivering Edexcel qualifications must be an Edexcel recognised centre and must have approval for qualifications that it is offering.

The centre agrees, as part of gaining recognition, to abide by specific terms and conditions relating to the effective delivery and quality assurance of assessment. The centre must abide by these conditions throughout the period of delivery.

Edexcel makes available to approved centres a range of materials and opportunities to exemplify the processes required for effective assessment and provide examples of effective standards. Approved centres must use the guidance on assessment to ensure that staff who are delivering Edexcel qualifications are applying consistent standards.

An approved centre must follow agreed protocols for: standardisation of assessors; planning, monitoring and recording of assessment processes; internal verification and recording of internal verification processes and dealing with special circumstances, appeals and malpractice.

Quality assurance processes

The approach to quality assured assessment is made through a partnership between a recognised centre and Edexcel. Edexcel is committed to ensuring that it follows best practice and employs appropriate technology to support quality assurance processes where practicable. The specific arrangements for working with centres will vary. Edexcel seeks to ensure that the quality-assurance processes it uses do not inflict undue bureaucratic processes on centres, and works to support them in providing robust quality-assurance processes.

The learning outcomes and assessment criteria in each unit within this specification set out the standard to be achieved by each learner in order to gain each qualification. Edexcel operates a quality-assurance process, designed to ensure that these standards are maintained by all assessors and verifiers.

For the purposes of quality assurance, all individual qualifications and units are considered as a whole. Centres offering these qualifications must be committed to ensuring the quality of the units and qualifications they offer, through effective standardisation of assessors and internal verification of assessor decisions. Centre quality assurance and assessment processes are monitored by Edexcel.

Page 200: Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)€¦ · Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) 2 ... Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

194

The Edexcel quality-assurance processes will involve:

gaining centre recognition and qualification approval if a centre is not currently approved to offer Edexcel qualifications

annual visits to centres by Edexcel for quality review and development of overarching processes and quality standards. Quality review and development visits will be conducted by an Edexcel quality development reviewer

annual visits by occupationally competent and qualified Edexcel Standards Verifiers for sampling of internal verification and assessor decisions for the occupational sector

the provision of support, advice and guidance towards the achievement of National Occupational Standards.

Centres are required to declare their commitment to ensuring quality and appropriate opportunities for learners that lead to valid and accurate assessment outcomes. In addition, centres will commit to undertaking defined training and online standardisation activities.

195

Annexe C: Centre certification and registration

Edexcel Standards Verifiers will provide support, advice and guidance to centres to achieve Direct Claims Status (DCS). Edexcel will maintain the integrity of Edexcel QCF NVQs through ensuring that the awarding of these qualifications is secure. Where there are quality issues identified in the delivery of programmes, Edexcel will exercise the right to:

direct centres to take action

limit or suspend certification

suspend registration.

The approach of Edexcel in such circumstances is to work with the centre to overcome the problems identified. If additional training is required, Edexcel will aim to secure the appropriate expertise to provide this.

What are the access arrangements and special considerations for the qualifications in this specification?

Centres are required to recruit learners to Edexcel qualifications with integrity.

Appropriate steps should be taken to assess each applicant’s potential and a professional judgement should be made about their ability to successfully complete the programme of study and achieve the qualification. This assessment will need to take account of the support available to the learner within the centre during their programme of study and any specific support that might be necessary to allow the learner to access the assessment for the qualification. Centres should consult Edexcel’s policy on learners with particular requirements.

Edexcel’s policy on access arrangements and special considerations for Edexcel qualifications aims to enhance access to the qualifications for learners with disabilities and other difficulties (as defined by the 1995 Disability Discrimination Act and the amendments to the Act) without compromising the assessment of skills, knowledge, understanding or competence. Please refer to Access Arrangements and Special Considerations for BTEC and Edexcel NVQ Qualifications for further details. www.edexcel.com.

Annexe D: Assessment requirements/strategy

Hospitality, Leisure, Travel and Tourism Sector Assessment Strategy for competence based units of assessment and qualifications (in England, Wales and Northern Ireland) and Scottish Vocational Qualifications (SVQs)

1 Introduction

The sector assessment strategy applies to all competence based units and qualifications that sit within the industries represented by People 1st. Competence based units and qualifications are those that are accredited to the Qualifications and Credit Framework, for England, Wales and Northern Ireland, which include National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs). In Scotland it applies to all sector Scottish Vocational Qualifications (SVQs). The sector assessment strategy comes into force on the 1st August 2009 and will apply to any new competence based units and qualifications. It will also replace other assessment strategies, currently used for existing NVQs and SVQs, as and when they are updated and re-accredited. See www.people1st.co.uk for a list of all competence based units and qualification that are covered by the sector assessment strategy.

There are four components to the sector assessment strategy which set out requirements and guidance relating to:

external quality control

assessment principles

occupational expertise of assessors and verifiers

continuous professional development.

The purpose of the sector assessment strategy is for People 1st and awarding organisations/bodies to work in partnership to:

maximise the quality assurance arrangements for the sector’s competence based units and qualifications and maintain standardisation across assessment practice

assure employers and learners that the sector’s competence based units and qualification are consistently assessed to the national occupational standards, and

promote continuous professional development amongst assessors and verifiers.

The content of the assessment strategy has been reviewed in close consultation with employers, awarding organisations/bodies, training providers and other sector stakeholders. While many of these stakeholders have an interest in the assessment strategy, its primary audience are awarding organisations/bodies that offer competence based units and qualifications in the hospitality, leisure, travel and tourism industries. Prospective or approved centres should not need to work directly with this document as its requirements will be incorporated within the procedures of their chosen awarding organisation/body.

The strategy should be used alongside the assessment and quality assurance guidance published by the regulatory authorities. Further information about competence based units and qualifications can be found at www.people1st.co.uk. Feedback or comments on the sector assessment strategy can be emailed to [email protected].

2 External Quality Control

2.1 Risk Assessment and Management of Centres

External quality control is achieved through rigorous monitoring and standardisation of assessment decisions. Awarding organisations/bodies achieve this by operating their existing systems for quality monitoring, risk assessment and management of their approved centres, following guidance issued by the regulatory authorities.

As part of this process People 1st requires awarding organisations/bodies to:

ensure that external verification, monitoring and support provided to centres takes into account their level of risk. For example new assessment centres, and those that are experiencing difficulty in meeting the assessment requirements, should be given additional support by their awarding organisation/body

supply People 1st with standardised information on their statistical monitoring, including registration and certification figures, on a quarterly basis. This data will remain confidential and no individual awarding organisation’s/body’s data will be published

report annually on the outcomes of, and any issues arising from, external verification and quality control arrangements

highlight specific issues relating to the assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications that require immediate attention, as and when they arise

contribute to the awarding organisations’/bodies’ forums to review and discuss matters relating to the assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications. The forum will meet at least biannually, or during key stages of projects and reviews

resolve issues relating to the assessment and verification of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications with the action(s), and in the timeframe, agreed.

3 Assessment

People 1st advocate the integration of national occupational standards within employers’ organisations in order to achieve a national level of competence across the sector’s labour market. As such, assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications will, ideally, take place within the workplace and assessment should, where possible, be conducted by the learner’s supervisors and/or line managers. People 1st recognise, however, that it is not always feasible for learners to be assessed in the workplace and as such it permits the use of assessment within Realistic Working Environments (RWE). Additionally, where sector employers do not have the infrastructure to manage assessment independently, it values the role of peripatetic assessors to support the assessment process.

Within these parameters, People 1st expects that:

the majority of assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications will be based on performance evidence, ie direct observation, outputs of work and witness testimony within the workplace or an RWE approved by an awarding organisation/body, (see section 3.4)

opportunities to ascertain learner’s accreditation of prior learning is maximised by early contact between the assessor and learner and during initial assessment/induction period.

Please note: External tests do not form part of People 1st’ s assessment strategy, other than linkage to IATA approved tests in Unit TT27, Sell Multi-Sector Air Travel, part of the Travel S/NVQ (where it may be a specific requirement and therefore applicable in that instance).

3.1 Witness Testimony

People 1st recognise the use of witness testimony and expert witness testimony as appropriate methods for assessors to collect evidence on learners’ performance.

Witness testimonies can be obtained from people that are occupationally competent and whom may be familiar with the national occupational standards, such as the learner’s line manager. They may also be obtained from people who are not occupationally competent, and do not have a knowledge of the national occupational standards, such as other people within the learner’s workplace, customers and suppliers. The assessor must judge the validity of the witness testimony and these may vary depending on the source. Witness testimonies can only support the assessment process and may remove or reduce the need to collect supplementary evidence, however, the awarding organisation’s/body’s minimum observations requirements must be met.

Page 206: Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)€¦ · Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) 2 ... Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

200

Expert witnesses may be used where additional support relating to the assessment of technical competence is required. Expert witnesses may be:

other approved assessors that are recognised to assess the relevant national occupational standards, or

line managers, other managers or experienced colleagues that are not approved assessors, but whom the awarding organisation/body agrees has current occupational competence, knowledge and expertise to make a judgement on a learner’s competence.

Expert witnesses must be able to demonstrate through relevant qualifications, practical experience and knowledge that they are qualified to provide an expert opinion on a learner’s performance in relation to the unit being assessed. People 1st believe that it is unlikely for an expert witness to be fully expert within any of the sector’s occupational areas in less than twelve months to two years. The final judgement on the validity of the expert witness testimony rests with the assessor and such testimonies may only be used in line with awarding organisation’s/body’s requirements.

3.2 Professional Discussion

Professional discussion is encouraged as a supplementary form of evidence to confirm a learner’s competence. Such discussions should not be based on a prescribed list of questions but be a structured discussion which enables the assessor to gather relevant evidence to ensure the learner has a firm understanding of the standard being assessed.

3.3 Simulation

Simulation can only be used to assess learners for the sector’s competence based units and qualifications where the opportunity to assess naturally occurring evidence is unlikely or not possible, for example assessment relating to health and safety, fire and emergency procedures. It should not include routine activities that must be covered by performance evidence.

There are no People 1st units that can be solely achieved by simulation. In the case of imported units, where simulation is acceptable in the evidence requirements, it should only be used when performance evidence is unlikely to be generated through normal working practices.

See Appendix A for competence based units which permit the use of simulation.

Awarding organisations/bodies must issue adequate guidance which informs centres how simulation should be planned and organised, ensuring that demands on learners are neither more nor less than they would encounter in a real work situation. In particular:

a centre’s overall strategy for simulation must be examined and approved by the external verifier

all simulations must be planned, developed and documented by the centre in a way that ensures the simulation correctly reflects what the unit seeks to assess

ideally, there should be a range of simulations to cover the same aspect of the standard

Page 207: Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)€¦ · Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) 2 ... Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

201

the physical environment for the simulation, and the nature of the contingency, must be realistic

learners should carry out the simulation in a professional manner

the learner should be given no indication as to what the simulation will present.

3.4 Realistic Working Environment

Assessment of the sector’s competence based units and qualifications should ideally be carried out within the workplace, however, where this is not possible learners can be assessed within an approved Realistic Working Environment (RWE) that replicates a real work setting. The criteria for RWE currently operated in the sector can be found at Appendix B.

4 Occupational expertise of assessors and verifiers

The requirements relating to the occupational expertise of assessors and verifiers is set out in Appendix C. Guidance on additional qualifications and/or training relevant to assessors and verifiers can be found in Appendix D.

4.1 Using employers’ in-house training programmes to assess competence based units and qualifications (please note this section is not applicable for centres which are either colleges or training providers)

(a) People 1st recognises that employers within the Sector provide robust in-house training, development and assessment programmes which meet the standards for Assessors and Verifiers. Where an employer maps its in-house training, development and assessment programme to the Assessor and Verifier standards and has this approved by their awarding organisation/body, People 1st fully supports the removal of the need to achieve the Assessor and Verifier Units. The individual assessing and verifying the qualifications must still meet the other mandatory requirements for occupational competence as specified in Appendix C.

(b) It should also be noted that People 1st encourages employers and awarding organisations/bodies to examine in-house employer training, development and assessment programmes to see whether these provide robust evidence against the relevant competence based units and/or qualifications (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) or the SVQs (Scotland). Where a direct mapping of the in-house training, development and assessment programme can be made to the:

relevant Units (based on the National Occupational Standards), and assessment meets the requirements of the assessment strategy and awarding organisation/body evidence requirement,

then awarding organisations/bodies should recognise this training for the purposes of achievement of the specified qualification or Unit.

In both instances specified in (a) and (b) above the awarding organisation/body will be required to ensure that a copy of the mapping is available to the Qualification Regulators.

5 Continuous Professional Development

To maintain high standards of quality and standardisation within assessment, and achieve best practice People 1st require all external verifiers, internal verifiers and assessors to maintain a record of their continuous professional development – see guidance at Appendix E.

204

People 1st does not permit the use of simulation, other than as listed below:

The overarching principle to be applied to units identified as suitable for simulation is that it should only be undertaken in a minority of cases where:

there is a high risk to the security or safety of the learner, individuals, key people in their lives and others

the opportunity to present evidence from work-based practice happens infrequently and therefore insisting that learners wait for such an occurrence would be unreasonable or create blockages in the assessment system and might carry the risk of de-motivating learners

there would otherwise be a breach of confidentiality or privacy.

The following two units are the only accepted Realistic Working Environments, and no other Realistic Working Environments will be accepted.

Appendix B

Criteria for Realistic Working Environments

It is essential for organisations operating a Realistic Working Environment (RWE) to ensure it reflects current and real work settings. By doing so, sector employers can be confident that competence achieved in an RWE will be continued into employment. RWEs can offer many opportunities to employers and individuals that have limited access to assessment.

The number of hours learners work and their input is not prescribed, as it is acknowledged that RWEs cannot operate without some flexibility. However, centres must provide evidence that the following criteria are being met as well as fulfilling the awarding organisation’s/body’s criteria for this purpose. EVs are expected to ensure RWEs meet the criteria set out below on at least one visit.

Hospitality

Appendix E

Continuous Professional Development for Assessors and Verifiers

It is necessary for assessors and verifiers to maintain a record of evidence of their continuous professional development (CPD). This is necessary to maintain currency of skills and understanding of the occupational area(s) being assessed, and can be achieved in a variety of ways. It should be a planned process, reviewed on an annual basis, for example as part of an individual’s performance review.

Assessors and verifiers should select CPD methods that are appropriate to meeting their development needs. The following provides an example of a variety of methods that can be utilised for CPD purposes.

Updating occupational expertise

Internal and external work placements

Work experience and shadowing (eg within associated departments)

External visits to other organisations

Updated and new training and qualifications (www.uksp.co.uk)

Training sessions to update skills

Visits to educational establishments

Trade fairs

Keeping up to date with sector developments and new legislation

Relevant sector websites

Membership of professional bodies

Papers and documents on legislative change

Networking events

Seminars, conferences, workshops, membership of committees/working parties (eg People 1st events)

Staff development days

Standardising and best practice in assessment

Regular standardisation meetings with colleagues

Sharing best practice through internal meetings, news letters, email circulars

Comparison of assessment and verification in other sectors

Attending awarding organisation/body meetings/seminars

Appendix 1: Evidence Requirements and Assessment Guidance for Food Production and Cooking Units

Introduction

This document contains evidence requirements and assessment guidance for the following food production and cooking units:

1PR23/09 Prepare Meals for Distribution

1PR26/09 Prepare Meals to Meet Relevant Nutritional Standards Set for School Meals

1PR28/09 Present Menu Items According to Defined Brand Standard

2PR21/09 Prepare, Operate and Clean Specialist Food Preparation and Cooking Equipment

2PR22/09 Liaise With Care Team to Ensure that an Individual’s Nutritional Needs are Met

2PR25/09 Prepare and Cook Food to Meet the Requirements of Allergy Sufferers

2PR27/09 Promote New Menu Items

They have been developed jointly, and agreed, with the relevant awarding bodies. They provide information on how each unit should be assessed and give examples of what types of evidence will be acceptable. These are only examples and should not be seen as a prescriptive list.

This document must be used in parallel with the approved Assessment Strategy.

The Nature of the Qualification and Source of Evidence

Food Production and Cooking is an occupational qualification the purpose of which is to assess a learner’s competence. In each unit there are learning outcomes that describe what the learner must be able to do in a real work environment. It is a requirement, therefore, that evidence to meet the assessment criteria for these learning outcomes comes from real work activity in a hospitality workplace. In some circumstances, evidence of the learner’s performance can come from a Realistic Working Environment (RWE). However, RWEs must meet the guidance provided in the Assessment Strategy.

Contingencies

The only exception to workplace or RWE evidence is where particular learning outcomes or assessment criteria rarely or never occur during the period of assessment. Examples could include accidents and emergencies, equipment failures or overspends. These are identified as ‘contingencies’ in the evidence requirements. Alternative assessment methods, such as simulation or questioning, may be used for contingencies of this kind.

211

Holistic Assessment

Occupational qualifications lend themselves to holistic assessment. Provided a learner is competent in their role and ready to be assessed, evidence for a number of units is likely to come from the learner’s day-to-day work with little interference or support from the assessor. Evidence will be naturally occurring and should only need to be cross-referenced to the learning outcomes and assessment criteria.

Assessment Methods in General

Most units contain two learning outcomes only1: one is about what the learner should be able to do and requires Performance Evidence; the other learning outcome is about what the learner understands and requires Evidence of Knowledge and Understanding. Each of these has a number of possible assessment methods. Every assessment method has advantages and disadvantages, and assessors should choose the method that is most effective and efficient in bringing out and judging valid evidence. For most of the learning outcomes requiring performance evidence, a combination of assessment methods may be appropriate.

These different methods are discussed below.

Performance Evidence

Performance evidence applies to those learning outcomes (and the associated assessment criteria) that describe what the learner is able to do. These learning outcomes all begin with ‘be able to’ and are followed by an active verb; they will have tangible outcomes, such as work products.

Assessment Method: Observation

This covers observation of the learner’s performance at work by a qualified assessor. Observation is probably the most robust method of assessing performance but requires a great deal of time and resource. For this reason, observation can be complemented by the other assessment methods below.

Assessment Method: Products of Work

Products of work are appropriate to many of the learning outcomes and associated assessment criteria. Products of work include, for example: menu and recipe plans, cellar records, staff rotas and accident reports. Products of work are excellent sources of evidence and often eliminate the need for an assessor to observe the learner producing them.

In order to reduce the burden on the learner, assessors are encouraged to log the relevant product of work and its location rather than insist the learner stores copies in their portfolio. Assessors must ensure that products of work are authentic. It is possible for learners to present products of work from the past, although this should be sufficiently recent for the assessor to be able to infer current competence.

1 Please note, some of the imported units contain more than two learning outcomes. However, each of these will also begin with ‘be able to..’, ‘know...’ or understand. Therefore the same principles apply.  

Page 218: Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF)€¦ · Key Features of the Edexcel level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) 2 ... Unit 3: Maintain Food Safety When Storing, Preparing

BA035187 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 Diploma in Craft Cuisine (QCF) – Issue 4 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

212

Assessment Method: Witness Testimony

This is another form of observation and takes account of the fact that valuable performance evidence will occur when the regular assessor is not present. The use of witness testimony is encouraged because, again, it reduces the need for observation by the regular assessor. The Assessment Strategy provides for two types of witness testimony.

Witness testimony, for example from a customer, supplier or colleague that provides evidence towards a learner’s assessment or

Expert witness testimony that provides powerful evidence of competence, that may in itself be sufficient for an assessor to consider that competence has been proved.

Expert witnesses may be other approved assessors who are recognised to assess the relevant occupational area and level, or line managers/other managers who may not be approved assessors, but who the awarding body agrees have sufficient occupational qualifications or experience to make a judgement on the competence of a learner. Expert witnesses must be able to demonstrate practical experience and knowledge in the unit being assessed, and expert witness testimony must be used in line with awarding body requirements.

Witness testimony of either kind must be authentic, ie the assessor must satisfy themselves that the testimony is a true account of the learner’s performance.

It is possible for learners to present witness testimony from the past, although this should be sufficiently recent for the assessor to be able to infer current competence.

Assessment Method: Learner Assessment Criteria/Report

Learner assessment criteria also take account of the fact that valuable performance evidence will occur when the assessor is not present. The learner assessment criteria/report gives the learner the opportunity to write a brief description of something they have done which meets the learning outcomes and assessment criteria in a unit. For a learner assessment criteria/report to be valuable, it must be possible to cross reference it to content of the unit and to clearly see how the description provides evidence against the relevant learning outcomes and assessment criteria. It is possible for a learner to produce a assessment criteria/report on something they have done in the past, although this should be sufficiently recent for the assessor to be able to infer current competence.

Assessment Method: Professional Discussion

Professional discussion can be used as an assessment method for performance and knowledge and understanding. Professional discussion can be a single event or a series of structured, planned and in-depth discussions between the assessor and learner. Professional discussions can be used to obtain evidence from the learner about what they have done and how they did it; it can also be used to supplement observations, witness testimony, examination of work products and written questions/answers. However, assessors should not rely entirely on learners’ reports of their own competence. It should always be supplemented by other types of evidence such as witness testimony and work products.

213

Evidence of Knowledge and Understanding Assessment Methods

Evidence of knowledge and understanding applies to those learning outcomes (and the associated assessment criteria) that describe what the learner understands. These learning outcomes all begin with ‘understand’.

Assessment Method: Questioning

Oral and written questions are both valid methods of assessing the knowledge and understanding of learning outcomes and associated assessment criteria, and are likely to be the assessor’s method of choice.

Assessment Method: Other Recorded Evidence of Knowledge and Understanding

This includes work-based projects, case studies and reflective accounts. For some learners these approaches can be powerful ways of bringing out evidence of a learner’s knowledge and understanding across several related learning outcomes and even units. However, their use will depend on the learner’s circumstances and their ability to structure and write the appropriate documents.

Assessment Method: Professional Discussion

Professional discussion can also be used to assess knowledge and understanding. Professional discussion can be a single event or a series of structured, planned and in-depth discussions between the assessor and learner. A professional discussion can bring out a wide range of knowledge and understanding across many related learning outcomes or units, particularly covering why certain things are done or the principles that underpin competent performance. Professional discussion can also help to verify the authenticity of other pieces of evidence.

Assessment Method: Inferring Knowledge and Understanding from Performance

It is possible for an assessor to infer that the learner knows or understands certain things from observing their performance or examining other pieces of evidence such as work products or witness testimony. This particularly applies to assessment criteria that cover how to do certain tasks, for example:

How menu items should be prepared to ensure that brand standards are maintained

The assessor should already have seen evidence of the learner’s ability to do this in the ‘be able to’ learning outcome in the same unit. They may, therefore, reasonably infer that the learner has this knowledge and understanding.

Inferring knowledge and understanding from performance is a helpful way of avoiding over assessment. However, it should be used with caution, particularly when it comes to the possession of key facts, for example:

What quantity of nutrients are typically needed to maintain a good dietary balance

or the reasons why certain things are important:

The importance of knowing calorific values per portion.

Volume of Evidence/Length of Assessment

The Evidence Requirements do not stipulate how frequently a learner must be assessed for each unit or how much evidence is acceptable. Assessors and verifiers should use their professional skills and experience to determine how much evidence over what period of time is sufficient to make a reliable judgment of consistent competent performance. This is likely to vary according to the individual learner and their working situation.
