Learners need to demonstrate both knowledge and practical capability for LCS levels 1b, 1c, 2a, 2b, while just the knowledge element is required for Level 1a.
Demonstrating knowledge is achieved typically through a multiple choice test, with test questions relating to the course learning outcomes. There are, of course, several ways to demonstrate practical capability.
Describe below in section 2.3.1 how the practical element of the assessment will be managed, including the process that the participant will follow after the course has been completed. the practical evidence can be in a variety of formats (indicate those used in section 2.3.2 below).
The learner should have played a meaningful role in the activity, usually as part of a team with a specific role or on an individual basis. The evidence should be endorsed by an appropriate manager/stakeholder to signify it is an accurate account of what happened.
