TLM Entry Level Award/Certificate in Skills for Employment
Pupils have to demonstrate competence against the assessment criteria from their day to day work and the teacher assessor has to verify that they are competent in relation to the general level descriptor using indicative assessment criteria. TLM's external moderator will check the judgements and the quality of the evidence and provide feedback. This process is not graded, the intention is that it is a flexible way of checking basic practical competence in the subject at the qualifications framework level.
