Assess Across Two Contexts
Develop competence to assess both vocationally related achievement and workplace performance.
Start your qualification for £14.99 and pay as you progress.

The Assessor to IQA Progression Bundle has been designed for existing assessors who want to broaden their assessment scope and progress into internal quality assurance responsibilities.
The CAVA Top-Up route supports assessors who already hold part of the assessor qualification suite and need to complete the remaining practical requirements to achieve the full Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement.
The Level 4 IQA Award then develops the knowledge and practical competence required to monitor assessment decisions, support assessors, contribute to standardisation and maintain the quality of assessment practice.
Together, these qualifications create a clear assessor to IQA career pathway for professionals working in colleges, independent training providers, apprenticeship organisations, employers and workplace learning environments.
The qualifications included in this bundle are awarded by Focus Awards and regulated within the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). Regulated qualifications can be verified through the Ofqual Register of Regulated Qualifications.
Purchasing the two qualifications together provides better value than enrolling separately while giving you one structured learning experience, flexible online study and dedicated tutor support.
This CAVA to IQA bundle is intended for experienced assessors who want to complete the full assessor certificate and progress into internal quality assurance.
