Course Content

These qualifications are made up of units each representing a small step of learning.
This allows the qualifications to be completed at your own pace.
All of the units achieved can be ‘banked’. This means that if you want to take another qualification
which includes the same units you do not have to take them again.
Each Knowledge unit has:
• a level - shows how difficult it is
• a unit aim – explains what is covered in the unit
• learning outcomes – cover what you need to do (skills) or what you need to understand
(knowledge)
• assessment criteria – what you need to show (evidence)
Each learning outcome is linked to a number of assessment criteria. Evidence must be provided for all
the assessment criteria to gain the unit

Minimum knowledge assessment will be conducted for enrollment and registration purposes.

How many learners should be sampled to achieve DCS?

DCS is awarded for each individual qualification and therefore the number of learners sampled would be considered per qualification.

It also depends on the status of the centre and how many reviews you need to achieve DCS.

If you’re delivering the qualification for the first time and would like to achieve DCS in one review, then the following criteria must be met in your EQA report:
