Best for Training’s distance Highfield Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA) is designed for staff who assess vocational qualifications or are required to hold the qualification by their awarding organisation.
This qualification is intended for those who assess both occupational competence in the work environment and vocational skills, knowledge and understanding in environments other than the workplace (for example a workshop, classroom or other training environment).
To ensure this is the right course for your staff:
- they must have at least two candidates you can assess
- they must be able to provide evidence of assessment in the workplace
- they must be able to provide evidence of assessment in a simulated environment (for example, classroom, role play scenarios or workshop)
- they will be observed by the tutor, or a suitable person from your workplace, working with a candidate.
At the induction, the tutor will check that this is the right course. There are three assessor qualifications that are all recognised by awarding organisations:
- Highfield Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA)
- Highfield Level 3 Award in Assessing Competence in the Work Environment
- Highfield Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement
Each qualification requires evidence of skills in assessment. This means learners can only complete the qualification for the environment for which you assess. If they assess in simulated and workplace environments, CAVA is the right course. If they only assess in the workplace then they will complete the Level 3 Award in Assessing Competence in the Work Environment. Finally, if they only assess in simulated environments, for example, in a college or training environment, then the Level 3 Award in Assessing Vocationally Related Achievement is the right qualification.
We offer all these qualifications and the tutor will ensure that staff are enrolled on the right course and completing the right qualification for their work role.
If staff are not currently working with learners, then the Level 3 Award in Understanding Assessment Principles and Practice may be more suitable.
Finding the right course can sometimes feel overwhelming and confusing, please give us a call so we can help you make the right decision.

Staff will complete the 3 mandatory units:
- Unit 1 – Understanding the principles and practices of assessment
- Unit 2 – Assess occupational competence in the work environment
- Unit 3 – Assess vocational skills, knowledge and understanding
If staff are completing one of the other assessor qualifications, they will complete unit 1 and either unit 2 or 3, depending on the environment they are assessing in.
Assessment will be via a portfolio of evidence.
Unit 1 assessment
- an assignment which covers assessment criteria. This can submitted in intervals for ongoing support and feedback from the expert tutor.
- participate in a planned professional discussion with the tutor to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of assessment.
Unit 2/ 3 assessment
- direct observation – staff will be observed working with a candidate by the tutor or a suitable person in your workplace
- work products to demonstrate competence in assessment
- assessment records from two candidates (evidence of planning, assessment and feedback)
- additional work product evidence, as required by the tutor, for example, emails, reflective accounts, minutes of meetings.
Staff will have 6 months from enrolment to complete the qualification, although many learners complete earlier.
Your staff member will be allocated a named assessor who will provide unlimited online support throughout the qualification. There will be a face to face online induction with the assessor to plan first steps and answer any questions. Further tutorials can be arranged with the assessor, either face to face, online or via telephone, as required.
The price includes:
- Expert advice and support from a highly experienced trainer
- Course materials
- Unlimited online support via Teams
- Registration and certification
There are no hidden charges with this qualification. The observation with the Best for Training assessor is included in the price. This ensures that Best for Training fully meets the observation requirements set by the Awarding Organisation and the Education and Training Foundation.
On successful completion of this qualification, your staff member will be a qualified assessor and will be able to carry out assessments in their area of occupational competence.
