Course Overview

The TAQA Level, 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA 6317-33) has been designed to train candidates in the theoretical and practical skills needed to support the assessment process. These qualifications were previously called the D Units or Assessor and Verifier Awards but are now known as the TAQA (Training, Assessor and Quality Assurance) Awards.

The CAVA qualification is intended for those who assess occupational competence in the work environment and vocational skills, knowledge, and understanding in a workshop, classroom, or other training environments. This is an ‘in service’ award, and candidates must have access to trainees (by job role or placement) to complete the process.
