Introducing Pearson NVQ/Competence-basedqualificationsWhat are NVQ/Competence-based qualifications?National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs)/Competence-based qualifications are work-basedqualifications that give learners the opportunity to develop and demonstrate theircompetence in the area of work or job role to which the qualification relates.NVQs/Competence-based qualifications are based on recognised occupational standards forthe appropriate sector. Occupational standards define what employees, or potentialemployees, must be able to do and know, and how well they should undertake work tasksand work roles. These standards are written in broad terms to enable employers andproviders to apply them to a wide range of related occupational areas.NVQs/Competence-based qualifications are outcomes-based with no fixed learningprogramme, therefore allowing flexible delivery to meet the individual learner’s needs. AtLevel 2 and above, these qualifications are recognised as approved training anddevelopment courses for employees that have been in the workplace for some time or as away of inducting, training and developing new entrants into the workplace. Qualifications atLevel 1 can be used in Traineeships, which enables progression to entry level employment orto Apprenticeship programmes.Learners will work towards their qualification in the workplace or in settings that replicatethe working environment as specified in the assessment requirements. Colleges, trainingcentres and/or employers can offer these qualifications as long as they have access toappropriate physical and human resources and have the necessary quality assurancesystems in place.Sizes of NVQ/Competence-based qualificationsFor all regulated qualifications, Pearson specify a total number of hours that it is estimatedlearners will require to complete and show achievement for the qualification – this is theTotal Qualification Time (TQT). The TQT value indicates the size of a qualification.Within the TQT, Pearson identifies the number of Guided Learning Hours (GLH) that weestimate a centre delivering the qualification might provide. Guided learning meansactivities, such as lessons, tutorials, online instruction, supervised study and giving feedbackon performance, that directly involve tutors and assessors in teaching, supervising andinvigilating learners. Guided learning includes the time required for learners to completeexternal assessment under examination or supervised conditions.In addition to guided learning, other required learning directed by tutors or assessors willinclude private study, preparation for assessment and undertaking assessment when notunder supervision, such as preparatory reading, revision and independent research.AS well as TQT and GLH, qualifications can also have a credit value – equal to one tenth ofTQT, rounded to the nearest whole number.TQT and credit values are assigned after consultation with users of the qualifications.NVQ/Competence qualifications are generally available in the following sizes: Award – a qualification with a TQT value of 120 or less (equivalent to a range of 1-12credits) Certificate – a qualification with a TQT value in the range of 121–369 (equivalent to arange of 13-36 credits) Diploma - a qualification with a TQT value of 370 or more (equivalent to 37 credits andabove).2Specification – Pearson BTEC Level 2 Award, Certificate and Diploma forIT Users (ITQ) – Issue 2 – December 2017 Pearson Education Limited 2017
