Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of task.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the laminated glass windscreens that they have repaired, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
automotive glazing workplace, off-site workplace location or simulated workplace
three different laminated glass windscreens as specified in the performance evidence requiring repair
vehicle protection equipment
cleaning products
tools, specialist equipment and materials appropriate for repairing laminated glass.
