NVQ On-site Assessment Policy
Purpose
This policy is designed to ensure efficient and effective on-site assessments for the NVQ Electrical Installation Certificate while minimizing excessive travel for assessors. The goal is to balance the needs of our candidates with the practical considerations of assessor availability and travel distance.
Scope

- Exceptions to this travel limit may be considered under special circumstances, subject to approval by the Assessment Coordinator.
Cluster Assessments
- Wherever possible, assessments will be clustered geographically to allow multiple candidates to be assessed during a single trip.
- Candidates located within the same region will be scheduled on the same day to maximize efficiency.

- Candidates outside the 50-mile radius may be required to travel to a designated location within the acceptable travel distance for their assessment.
Travel Reimbursement
