. The Silver INGOT assumes that there is secure capability at Bronze level and builds on this in terms of breadth and depth of applications. An average student recently accredited at Bronze level will take approximately 60 hours of study and practice to achieve Silver level. When an accredited Silver INGOT assessor is satisfied that the student can competently match the criteria, a Silver INGOT can be awarded subject to an on-line validity check as part of the quality assurance procedures.

How to teach the INGOT criteria

As the teacher, you decide how to teach to cover the INGOT criteria. But here are some ideas that you might find useful.

If doing Bronze and Silver together, use lessons 2 and 8 for Bronze, and use the OpenOffice.org Getting Getting Started Guide [5] chapter 8 for the drawing component.
