This qualification aims to document professional learning outcomes and does not contain key competences.

Candidates who want to achieve this qualification are subjected to theoretical and performance-based exams defined in the units.

Theoretical and performance-based exams in the qualification units can be done separately for each unit or together. However, each unit is evaluated independently.

In the theoretical exam, the questions and answers of the candidates are structured and each of them has equal points, at least thirty (30) questions for A1-B5 units; at least fifty (50) for unit B1; at least forty (40) for unit B2; at least fifteen (15) for unit B3; For B4-B6-B7-B8 units, a multiple choice exam with at least ten (10) questions is applied. In the exam, candidates are given an average of 1.5 minutes for each question.

All skills and competencies are measured by a performance-based exam. The duration of the performance-based examination should correspond to the time in actual practice conditions. The performance-based exam is carried out in a real or realistic working environment.

Quality assurance processes are carried out in accordance with the VQA Quality Assurance Document and the Guidelines in its annex.
