How are the qualifications graded and assessed?

The overall grade for each qualification is a ‘pass’. To achieve a pass for the full qualification, a learner must achieve all the required units within the specified qualification structure. To pass a unit a learner must: achieve all the specified learning outcomes satisfy all the assessment criteria by providing sufficient and valid

evidence for each criterion show that the evidence is their own. The qualifications are designed to be assessed: in the workplace or in conditions resembling the workplace, as specified in the assessment

requirements/strategy for the sector.

Assessment strategy

The assessment strategies for these qualifications have been included in Annexe D. Separate assessment strategies have been produced for Beauty Therapy and Nail Services. These assessment strategies have been developed by Habia in partnership with employers, training providers, awarding organisations and the regulatory authorities. The assessment strategies include details on: criteria for defining realistic working environments use of simulation areas where mandatory written question papers must be used roles, occupational competence and continuing professional development

required by assessors, expert witnesses, internal verifiers and standards verifiers

quality control of assessment nationally agreed maximum service times for NVQ assessment purposes.

Learners may provide evidence of occupational competence from: current practice where evidence is generated from a current job role a programme of development where evidence comes from

assessment opportunities built into a learning/training programme whether at or away from the workplace

the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) where a learner can demonstrate that they can meet the assessment criteria within a unit through knowledge, understanding or skills they already possess without undertaking a course of development. They must submit sufficient, reliable and valid evidence for assessment, internal and standards verification purposes. RPL is acceptable for accrediting a unit, several units or a whole qualification

a combination of these.

It is important that the evidence provided to satisfy the unit and learning outcomes’ assessment criteria is:

Valid relevant to the standards for which competence is claimed

Authentic produced by the learner

Current sufficiently recent to create confidence that the same skill, understanding or knowledge persist at the time of the claim

Reliable indicates that the learner can consistently perform at this level

Sufficient fully meets the requirements of the standards.

Types of evidence (to be read in conjunction with the assessment strategy in Annexe D)

To successfully achieve a unit the learner must gather evidence which shows that they have met the required standard specified by the assessment criteria. Evidence can take a variety of different forms including the examples below. Centres should refer to the assessment strategy for information about which of the following are permissible. direct observation of the learner’s performance by their assessor (O) outcomes from oral or written questioning (Q&A) products of the learner’s work (P) personal statements and/or reflective accounts (RA) outcomes from simulation, where permitted by the assessment

strategy (S) professional discussion (PD) assignment, project/case studies (A) authentic statements/witness testimony (WT) expert witness testimony (EPW) evidence of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). The abbreviations may be used for cross-referencing purposes. Learners can use one piece of evidence to prove their knowledge, skills and understanding across different assessment criteria and/or across different units. It is, therefore, not necessary for learners to have each assessment criterion assessed separately. Learners should be encouraged to cross-reference their evidence to the relevant assessment criteria. Evidence must be made available to the assessor, internal verifier and Edexcel standards verifier. A range of recording documents is available on the Edexcel website www.edexcel.com. Alternatively, centres may develop their own.

Learners’ essential knowledge and understanding for the NVQ Certificate and Diploma Beauty Therapy and Nail Services units is assessed through the use of externally set tests. These tests are written by Edexcel, and administered and assessed by Edexcel approved centres. The tests are available to Edexcel approved centres in the form of a CD ROM on request from [email protected]. The CD ROM contains instructions to centres to ensure that the test papers are secure. For the Beauty Therapy and Nail Services NVQs at Level 2 and 3, assessment must take place through written question papers.

Centre recognition and approval

Centre recognition

Centres that have not previously offered Edexcel accredited qualifications need to apply for and be granted centre recognition and approval as part of the process for approval to offer individual qualifications. New centres must complete both a centre recognition and approval application and a qualification approval application. Existing centres will be given ‘automatic approval’ for a new qualification if they are already approved for a qualification that is being replaced by the new qualification and the conditions for automatic approval are met. Centres already holding Edexcel approval and which have a history of good external quality assurance outcomes are able to gain qualification approval for a different level or different sector via Edexcel online.

Approvals agreement

All centres are required to enter into an approvals agreement which is a formal commitment by the head or principal of a centre to meet all the requirements of the specification and any linked codes or regulations. Edexcel will act to protect the integrity of the awarding of qualifications, if centres do not comply with the agreement. This could result in the suspension of certification or withdrawal of approval.

Quality assurance

Detailed information on Edexcel’s quality assurance processes is given in Annexe B.

What resources are required?

Each qualification is designed to support learners working in the beauty therapy sector. Physical resources need to support the delivery of the qualifications and the assessment of the learning outcomes and they must be of industry standard. The centre and staff involved in the delivery of a qualification must take Health and Safety requirements into account. Where provision is made by the Sector Skills Council or Standards Setting Body for assessment to be undertaken in a Realistic Working Environment (RWE), the RWE must provide the same conditions as the normal day-to-day working environment, with a similar range of demands, pressures and requirements for cost-effective working. Centres must meet any specific resource requirements given in Annexe D: Assessment requirements/strategy. Staff assessing learners must meet the requirements within the overarching assessment strategy for the sector.

The unit title is accredited on the QCF and this form of words will appear on the learner’s Notification of Performance (NOP).

This is the unit owner’s reference number for the specified unit.

This code is a unique reference number for the unit.

All units and qualifications within the QCF have a level assigned to them, which represents the level of achievement. There are nine levels of achievement, from Entry level to level 8. The level of the unit has been informed by the QCF level descriptors and, where appropriate, the NOS and/or other sector/professional.

All units have a credit value. The minimum credit value is one, and credits can only be awarded in whole numbers. Learners will be awarded credits when they achieve the unit.

A notional measure of the substance of a qualification. It includes an estimate of the time that might be allocated to direct teaching or instruction, together with other structured learning time, such as directed assignments, assessments on the job or supported individual study and practice. It excludes learner-initiated private study.

This provides a summary of the purpose of the unit.

The assessment/evidence requirements are determined by the SSC. Learners must provide evidence for each of the requirements stated in this section.

Learning outcomes state exactly what a learner should know, understand or be able to do as a result of completing a unit.

The assessment criteria of a unit specify the standard a learner is expected to meet to demonstrate that a learning outcome, or a set of learning outcomes, has been achieved.

Learners must reference the type of evidence they have and where it is available for quality assurance purposes. The learner can enter the relevant key and a reference. Alternatively, the learner and/or centre can devise their own referencing system.

This provides a summary of the assessment methodology to be used for the unit.

The learner should use this box to indicate where the evidence can be obtained eg portfolio page number.

The learner should give the date when the evidence has been provided.

Unit 1: Ensure Responsibility for Actions to Reduce Risks to Health and Safety

Unit code: G20

Unit reference number: A/601/5867

QCF level: 3

Credit value: 4

Guided learning hours: 38

Unit summary

The aim of this unit is to provide candidates with the knowledge/ understanding/skills to understand their health and safety responsibilities in the workplace

Evidence requirements

1 The common evidence requirements below are in addition to the ENTO Assessment Strategies approved by UKCG in February 2008.

2 The standards require evidence of consistent occupational competence, as defined by the standards to be demonstrated through relevant work activities. A variety of assessment methods should be used to confirm competence. Assessment of knowledge should be integrated with the assessment of performance wherever possible and appropriate.

3 Assessment of performance and knowledge in the workplace All evidence must be derived from performance in the workplace with no exceptions. Therefore no simulated working conditions have been specified in this assessment strategy as the outcomes can be demonstrated by a combination of other assessment methods drawn from: direct observation of the candidate in the workplace witness testimony by colleagues and line managers of the candidate’s

successful performance of activities in the workplace documentary and other product-based evidence a personal report by the candidate endorsed by colleagues questions discussion professional discussion.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 2: Promote Additional Services or Products to Customers

Unit code: G18

Unit reference number: D/601/0936

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 6

Guided learning hours: 40

Unit summary

Services or products are continually changing in organisations to keep up with customers’ expectations. By offering new or improved services or products the organisation can increase customer satisfaction. Many organisations must promote these to be able to survive in a competitive world. However, it is equally important for organisations that are not in competition with others to encourage their customers to try new services or products. This unit is about the learners’ need to keep pace with new developments and to encourage customers to take an interest in them. Customers expect more and more services or products to be offered to meet their own growing expectations. They need to be made aware of what is available from the organisation. Because of this everybody offering services or products needs to play a part in making customers aware of what is available. Learners should not choose this unit if their organisation does not want them to suggest additional services or products to customers.

Evidence requirements

1 Learners’ evidence should be collected when carrying out a real job, whether paid or voluntary, and when dealing with real clients, whether internal or external to the salon. However, for this unit, evidence collected in a realistic working environment or work placement is permissible. Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence with this unit. (Guidelines for the assessment of a Realistic Working Environment can be found in the Client Service Assessment Strategy for NVQ Levels 2, 3 and 4 – January 2006.)

2 Learners may collect the evidence for the unit through work in a private sector salon, a not-for-profit salon or a public services salon.

3 Learners must provide evidence that shows they have done this over a sufficient period of time with different clients on different occasions for their assessor to be confident that they are competent.

4 Learners must provide evidence that the additional services or products offered include: use of services or products that are new to your client additional use of services or products that your client has used

before. 5 Learners’ evidence must show that they:

follow salon procedures for offering additional services or products to their clients

create opportunities for encouraging their clients to use additional services or products

identify what their clients want by seeking information directly identify what their clients want from spontaneous client comments.

6 Their communication with clients may be face to face, in writing, by telephone, text message, email, internet, intranet, or by any other method learners would be expected to use within their job role.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 3: Develop and Maintain Effectiveness at Work

Unit code: G8

Unit reference number: M/600/1268

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 3

Guided learning hours: 30

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about taking responsibility for improving performance at work and working well with colleagues so as to make a positive contribution to the overall effectiveness of the salon.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty Therapy Assessment Strategies. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner will need to demonstrate in their everyday work that they

have met the standard for developing and maintaining their effectiveness at work.

3 The learner will need to collect ‘paper evidence’ (also known as documentary evidence) to show that they have participated in development activities at work.

4 The assessor will observe the learner’s contributions to effective teamwork on at least one occasion which will be recorded.

5 The learner must show that they: have participated in all the listed opportunities to learn:

a) from colleagues and other relevant people b) active participation in training and development activities c) active participation in salon activities

have agreed and reviewed their progress towards both productivity and personal development targets: a) productivity b) personal development

have offered assistance to both an individual colleague and in a group of their colleagues: a) on a one-to-one basis b) in a group.

Although some of the evidence of the performance will be gathered from observations made by the assessor, the learner will need to put together more documentary evidence in their portfolio to support their achievement of this unit. 6 No mandatory written questions are required for this unit.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 4: Fulfil Salon Reception Duties

Unit code: G4

Unit reference number: Y/600/1264

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 3

Guided learning hours: 24

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about the important skills of welcoming and receiving people entering the salon, handling enquiries, making appointments, dealing with client payments and generally maintaining the reception area. Dealing with people in a polite manner whilst questioning them to find out what they require forms an important part of this unit.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty Therapy Assessment Strategies. 1 Evidence from simulated activities may be used to produce performance

evidence for the following but only when naturally occurring performance evidence cannot be obtained for: Methods of Payment Range Variables – ‘cash equivalents’, ‘cheque’

and ‘payment cards’ and handling the types of payment discrepancies listed: a) invalid currency b) invalid card c) incorrect completion of cheque d) suspected fraudulent use of payment card e) payment disputes.

2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their work situation that they have met the standards for fulfilling salon reception duties.

3 The assessor will observe these aspects of the learners’ performance on at least three occasions. These observations must cover all four main outcomes of this unit.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support their performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 No mandatory written questions are required for this unit.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 5: Provide Facial Skin Care Treatment

Unit code: B4

Unit reference number: M/600/8754

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 8

Guided learning hours: 68

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about providing facial skin care treatment. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for improving and maintaining facial skin condition.

3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three occasions, each involving a different client.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

carried out at least one of the necessary actions a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the treatment cannot be carried out c) modification of treatment

treated all skin types a) oily b) dry c) combination

treated two out of three skin conditions* a) mature skin b) sensitive skin c) dehydrated skin

used all types of equipment a) magnifying light b) skin warming c) consumables

used all the types of facial products a) eye make-up remover b) cleansers c) toners d) exfoliators e) moisturisers f) specialised skin products

used all massage mediums a) oil b) cream

used all the massage techniques a) effleurage b) petrissage c) tapotement

used all the mask treatments a) setting b) non-setting

provided all types of advice a) suitable aftercare products and their use b) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions c) recommended time intervals in between facial treatments d) home care routines.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

The assessment and quality assurance requirement for this qualification/unit provides evidence towards Assessor and Verifier Units.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 6: Enhance the Appearance of Eyebrows and Eyelashes

Unit code: B5

Unit reference number: H/600/7455

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 5

Guided learning hours: 45

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based, covering both skills and knowledge. This unit is about enhancing the appearance of the eyebrows and eyelashes. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for enhancing the appearance of eyebrows and eyelashes.

3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three occasions, involving three different clients. The assessor will want to see the learner apply a partial set of artificial eyelashes and tinting eyebrows and eyelashes.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the treatment cannot be carried out c) modification of treatment

covered both types of eyebrow shaping a) total reshape of the brow b) maintenance of original brow shape

worked with two of the four colouring characteristics* a) fair b) red c) dark d) white

applied both types of artificial eyelashes a) strip lashes b) individual flare lashes

used both types of products a) adhesives b) solvents

provided all types of aftercare advice a) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions b) recommended time intervals between treatments c) suitable home care products and their use.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 7: Carry out Waxing Services

Unit code: B6

Unit reference number: Y/600/9087

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 7

Guided learning hours: 61

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about carrying out waxing services. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 Learners must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they

have met the standard for removing hair using waxing techniques. 3 Learners’ assessor will observe their performance on at least four

occasions, each involving a different client. 4 From the range statement, learners must practically demonstrate that

they: have used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

have carried out all the waxing treatments a) eyebrows b) upper lip c) chin d) full leg e) half leg f) underarm g) bikini line

have dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the waxing service cannot be carried out c) modification of the waxing service

have used all the types of waxing products on the appropriate part of the body a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice

b) explaining why the waxing service cannot be carried out have used all the work techniques a) stretching and manipulating the skin during application and

removal b) speed of product removal c) direction and angle of removal d) on-going product temperature checks have provided all the types of advice. a) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions b) suitable homecare products and their use c) recommended time intervals between waxing treatments

*However, learners must prove to their assessor that they have the

necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in this range.

5 It is likely most evidence of learners’ performances will be gathered from the observations made by their assessor, but they may be required to produce other evidence to support their performance if their assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

they have met the standard for providing make-up services. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three

occasions, each involving a different client, on a range of different skin tones.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

applied make-up to all client age groups a) 16–30 years b) 31–50 years c) over 50 years

identified all skin types a) oily b) dry c) combination

applied make-up for all the occasions a) day b) evening c) special

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the service cannot be carried out c) modification of the service

used all the types of make-up products a) foundations b) powders c) facial bronzing products d) concealers e) eyebrow products f) eyeshadows g) eyeliners h) mascara i) cheek products j) lip products

provided all types of advice a) suitable make-up products and their use b) possible contra-actions and how to deal with them c) suitable make-up re-application techniques d) suitable make-up removal techniques.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 9: Instruct Clients in the Use and Application of Skin Care Products and Make-up

Unit code: B9

Unit reference number: Y/600/8943

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 7

Guided learning hours: 53

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based, covering both skills and knowledge. This unit is about instructing clients in the use and application of skin care products and make-up. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for instructing clients in the use of skin care and make-up application.

3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three occasions, each involving instruction for a different look on a different client.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

identified all the skin types a) oily b) dry c) combination

identified all client age groups a) 16-30 years b) 31-50 years c) over 50 years

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the service cannot be carried out c) modification of the service

given all types of instruction a) skin care choice and application b) day make-up c) evening make-up d) special occasion make-up

used all the instructional techniques a) skills demonstration b) use of diagrams c) verbal explanation d) use of written instructions

used all the types of resources a) skin care [products] b) make-up products c) make-up tools and equipment d) suitable mirror e) face chart.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 No mandatory written questions are required with this unit.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 10: Provide Manicure Services

Unit code: N2

Unit reference number: Y/600/7551

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 6

Guided learning hours: 53

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based, covering both skills and knowledge. This unit is about providing manicure services. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy and Nail Services.

Evidence requirements

1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for providing manicure services. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three

occasions; each occasion must involve a different hand and nail treatment.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the treatment cannot be carried out c) modification of service

used four out of the five types of hand and nail treatments* a) paraffin wax b) hand masks c) thermal mitts d) exfoliators e) warm oil

applied all types of nail finish a) dark colour b) French c) buffed

provided all types of treatment advice a) suitable aftercare tools and products and their use b) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions c) recommended time intervals in-between nail services d) home care routines.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy/Habia Assessment Strategy for Nail Services.

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 11: Provide Pedicure Services

Unit code: N3

Unit reference number: H/600/8766

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 6

Guided learning hours: 53

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about providing pedicure services. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy and Nail Services.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy/Habia Nail Services Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for providing pedicure services. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least three

occasions; each occasion must involve a different foot and nail treatment.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the service cannot be carried out c) modifying the service

used four out of the five types of feet and nail treatments* a) paraffin wax b) foot masks c) thermal boots d) exfoliators

produced both types of nail finish a) dark colour b) French

provided all types of advice a) suitable aftercare tools and products and their use b) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions c) recommended time intervals in-between nail services.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy/Habia Assessment Strategy for Nail Services.

The assessment and quality assurance requirement for this qualification/ unit provides evidence towards Assessor and Verifier units.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 12: Carry out Ear Piercing

Unit code: B7

Unit reference number: D/600/9088

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 2

Guided learning hours: 20

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about carrying out ear piercing. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that

they have met the standard for ear lobe piercing. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least two

occasions, including preparation activities for two different clients. 4 The learner must show that they have:

used all consultation techniques a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the treatment cannot be carried out c) modification of treatment

used all types of equipment, materials and products a) ear piercing gun b) sterile skin marker pen c) sterile ear studs d) mirror e) consumables

provided all types of treatment advice a) suitable homecare products and their use b) regular movement of the studs c) possible contra-actions d) removal of studs.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 13: Enhance Appearance using Skin Camouflage

Unit code: B10

Unit reference number: M/600/8947

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 6

Guided learning hours: 46

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based, covering both skills and knowledge. This unit is about enhancing appearance using skin camouflage. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they have

met the standard for enhancing appearance using cosmetic camouflage. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least four occasions,

each involving a different client. 4 The learner must show that they have:

used all consultation techniques a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

worked on all the camouflage needs a) tattoos b) hyper-pigmentation c) hypo-pigmentation d) erythematic

dealt with all the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the camouflage application cannot be carried out c) modification of camouflage application

used all application tools

a) brushes b) fingers c) sponges d) velour puffs

used all camouflage products a) camouflage creams b) camouflage powders c) setting products

carried out camouflage application on all areas a) head or neck b) chest or shoulders c) limbs d) back

provided all types of advice a) other products which can be used in conjunction with skin camouflage b) products/substances/environments which should be avoided c) durability and removal of skin camouflage products.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in the ranges.

5. It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 14: Assist with Spa Operations

Unit code: S1

Unit reference number: K/600/8784

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 4

Guided learning hours: 37

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about preparing for and assisting with spa operations. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they have

met the standard for providing specialist spa treatments. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least four separate

occasions which must include wet areas and changing rooms. 4 The learner must show that they have assisted with spa operations in all work

areas: a) wet areas b) treatment areas c) changing rooms d) relaxation areas e) service areas.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

The assessment and quality assurance requirement for this qualification/unit provides evidence towards Assessor and Verifier units.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 15: Provide Threading Services

Unit code: B34

Unit reference number: F/602/2089

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 4

Guided learning hours: 29

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about carrying out threading services. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Beauty and Spa Therapy Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they have

met the standard for hair removal using threading techniques. 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least four occasions,

each involving a different client, two of which must include total reshape of the brows.

4 The learner must show that they have: used all consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the threading service cannot be carried out c) modification of the threading service

worked on all the treatment areas a) eyebrows b) upper lip c) chin

used all hair removal methods a) mouth technique b) neck technique c) hand technique

worked on both eyebrow shapes a) total reshape of the brows b) maintenance of original brow shape

provided all the types of advice a) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions b) recommended time intervals between threading treatments c) suitable homecare products and their use.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Unit 16: Carry out Nail Art Services

Unit code: N4

Unit reference number: A/600/8997

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 4

Guided learning hours: 30

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based, covering both skills and knowledge. This unit is about carrying out nail art services. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Nail Services only.

Evidence requirements

The assessment of this unit needs to meet the requirements within the Habia Nail Services Assessment Strategy. 1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 The learner must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they have

met the standard for providing nail art service 3 The assessor will observe the learner’s performance on at least four occasions,

one to be carried out on feet. 4 The learner must show that they have:

used all consultation techniques a) questioning b) visual c) manual d) reference to client records

dealt with at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraged the client to seek medical advice b) explained why the service cannot be carried out c) modified the service

applied all types of nail art techniques a) coloured polishes b) transfers c) glitters d) foiling e) flatstones f) rhinestones g) marbling h) striping i) dotting j) freehand

provided all types of service advice a) suitable aftercare products and their use b) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions c) recommended time intervals in-between nail services.

*However, the learner must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in these ranges.

5 It is likely most evidence of the learner’s performance will be gathered from the observations made by the assessor but the learner may be required to produce other evidence to support the performance if the assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategy for Nail Services.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record

Unit 17: Apply and Maintain Nail Enhancements to Create a Natural Finish

Unit code: N5

Unit reference number: L/600/9099

QCF level: 2

Credit value: 8

Guided learning hours: 61

Unit summary

This is a job-ready unit which is competency based. This unit is about applying and maintaining nail enhancements to create a natural finish. To carry out this unit the learner will need to maintain effective health, safety and hygiene procedures throughout their work. This unit applies to Nail Services only.

Evidence requirements

1 Simulation is not allowed for any performance evidence within this unit. 2 Learners must practically demonstrate in their everyday work that they have

met the standard for applying and maintaining nails enhancements to create a natural finish, using one of the following systems: gel liquid and powder wrap.

3 Learners’ assessor will observe their performance on at least six occasions, which must include: one for the application of a full set of natural nail overlays two for a full set of tips and overlays two for the maintenance and repair of a full set of nail enhancements one for the removal of a full set of tips and overlays.

4 From the range statement, learners must practically demonstrate that they: have used all the consultation techniques

a) questioning b) visual c) physical examination d) reference to client records

have carried out at least one of the necessary actions* a) encouraging the client to seek medical advice b) explaining why the service cannot be carried out c) modifying the service

have applied all types of services a) full set of natural nail overlays b) full set of natural tips and overlays

have carried out all types of nail maintenance a) infill b) rebalance

have provided all types of advice. a) suitable aftercare products and their use b) avoidance of activities which may cause contra-actions c) recommended time intervals in-between nail services

*However, learners must prove to their assessor that they have the necessary knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to perform competently in respect of all the items in this range.

5 It is likely most evidence of their performance will be gathered from the observations made by their assessor, but they may be required to produce other evidence to support their performance if their assessor has not been present.

6 This unit requires mandatory written questions in accordance with the Habia Assessment Strategies for Nail Services.

Assessment methodology

Evidence of achievement of this unit should be drawn from the workplace, except where Habia makes provision for evidence to be produced through simulation, as specified in the Habia overarching assessment strategy. An assessment record must be created that identifies the assessment criteria that have been met and cross-references these to the evidence provided. The assessment record should include details of the type of evidence and the date of assessment. The unit specification or suitable centre documentation could be used to form an assessment record.

Annexe B: Quality assurance

Key principles of quality assurance

A centre delivering Edexcel qualifications must be an Edexcel recognised and approved centre and must have approval for the individual qualifications that it is offering.

The centre agrees, as part of gaining recognition and centre approval, to abide by specific terms and conditions relating to the effective delivery and quality assurance of assessment. The centre must abide by these conditions throughout the period of delivery.

Edexcel makes available to centres a range of materials and opportunities to exemplify the processes required for effective assessment and to provide examples of effective standards. Approved centres must use the guidance on assessment to ensure that staff who are delivering Edexcel accredited qualifications are applying consistent standards.

An approved centre must follow agreed protocols for: standardisation of assessors; planning, monitoring and recording of assessment processes; internal verification and recording of internal verification processes and dealing with special circumstances, appeals and malpractice.

Quality assurance processes

The approach to quality assured assessment is made through a partnership between a recognised and approved centre and Edexcel. Edexcel is committed to ensuring that it follows best practice and employs appropriate technology to support quality assurance processes where practicable. The specific arrangements for working with centres will vary. Edexcel seeks to ensure that the quality-assurance processes it uses do not inflict undue bureaucratic processes on centres, and works to support them in providing robust internal quality-assurance processes. The learning outcomes and assessment criteria in each unit within this specification set out the standard to be achieved by each learner in order to gain each unit and through satisfying the rules of combination the whole qualification. Edexcel operates a quality-assurance process, designed to ensure that these standards are maintained by all assessors and verifiers. For the purposes of quality assurance, all individual qualifications and units are considered as a whole. Centres offering these qualifications must be committed to ensuring the quality of the units and qualifications they offer, through effective standardisation of assessors and internal verification of assessor decisions. Centre quality assurance and assessment processes are monitored by Edexcel.

208

The Edexcel quality-assurance processes will involve: gaining centre recognition and approval – if a centre is not currently

approved to offer Edexcel qualifications — and qualification approval through satisfying the Edexcel approved centre criteria

visits to centres, conducted by occupationally competent and qualified Edexcel Standards Verifiers for sampling of internal verification and assessment processes, and assessor decisions for the occupational sector. The minimum frequency of Standards Verifiers’ visits to centres is usually two per year (a total of two days per year). The exact frequency and duration of Standards Verifier visits must reflect a centre’s performance, taking account of the number: of assessment sites and throughput of candidates and turnover of assessors and turnover of internal verifiers.

the provision of support, advice and guidance towards the achievement of National Occupational Standards.

Centres are required to declare their commitment to ensuring quality and to providing appropriate opportunities for learners that lead to valid and accurate assessment outcomes.

209

Annexe C: Registration and certification

Registration Details of the process for registration of learners on the qualifications in this specification are provided in the Edexcel Information Manual, published annually. Centres must register learners promptly on their chosen qualification and within the registration deadlines provided in the Edexcel Information Manual.

What are the access arrangements and special considerations for the qualifications in this specification?

Centres are required to recruit learners to Edexcel qualifications with integrity. Appropriate steps should be taken to assess each applicant’s potential and a professional judgement should be made about their ability to successfully complete the programme of study and achieve the qualification. This assessment will need to take account of the support available to the learner within the centre during their programme of study and any specific support that might be necessary to allow the learner to access the assessment for the qualification. Centres should consult Edexcel’s policy on learners with particular requirements. Edexcel’s policy on access arrangements and special considerations for Edexcel qualifications aims to enhance access to the qualifications for learners with disabilities and other difficulties (as defined by the 1995 Disability Discrimination Act and the amendments to the Act) without compromising the assessment of skills, knowledge, understanding or competence. Please refer to Access Arrangements and Special Considerations for BTEC and Edexcel NVQ Qualifications for further details. www.edexcel.com.

Certification

Details of the process for reporting learners’ success to Edexcel and for claiming certification are provided in the Edexcel Information Manual, published annually. Certificates are issued weekly according to the schedule of dates published in the Edexcel Information Manual. Results should only be reported if the centre has clearance to certificate through reports from Standards Verifiers. Subject to this, results must be reported immediately following programme completion so that certificates can be issued as soon as possible. Edexcel Standards Verifiers will provide support, advice and guidance to centres to achieve Direct Claim Status (DCS). Edexcel will maintain the integrity of Edexcel QCF NVQs, SVQs and competence qualifications through ensuring that the awarding of these qualifications is secure. Where there

are quality issues identified in the delivery of programmes, Edexcel will exercise the right to: direct centres to take action limit or suspend certification suspend registration. The approach of Edexcel in such circumstances is to work with the centre to overcome the problems identified. If additional training is required, Edexcel will aim to secure the appropriate expertise to provide this.

Annexe D: Assessment requirements/strategy

Assessment Strategy for Beauty Therapy and Spa Therapy NVQs

Key Mandatory Components of Our Assessment Strategy

Part 2 sets out the Key Mandatory components of our Assessment Strategy for NVQs and SVQs, which are: performance in the workplace, the use of realistic working environments,

requirements for a realistic working environment and the use of specific simulated activities

Habia’s approach to External Quality Control of Assessment the requirements for the occupational expertise of External Verifiers,

Internal Verifiers and Assessors. Each of the above is expanded in more detail below.

Performance in the Workplace and Use of Simulations

The beauty therapy and spa therapy NVQs/SVQs may be assessed in the workplace and/or an approved ‘realistic working environment’ meeting the criteria set out in Appendix 1A. Habia wishes to make clear its stance on the use of simulated activities and a realistic working environment. The key criterion for allowing the use of simulated activities in the assessment of performance is the rarity of the opportunity to undertake the activities required by the standard of competence. Examples of these activities include: dealing with fire and other emergencies dealing with health and safety activities outside or peripheral to normal

practices client/customer relationships contra-indications/contra-actions. Therefore, a simulated activity is viewed as ‘any structured assessment exercise involving a specific task which reproduces real life situations’. In this it is distinct and separate from the use of an approved realistic working environment as the latter allows the candidate to perform an entire occupational role over an extended period of time, in an environment which as closely as possible replicates the working environment and involves real work on real clients drawn from members of the public. Habia considers evidence generated in a realistic working environment meeting the criteria set out in Appendix 1A, as acceptable for the purposes of beauty and spa therapy NVQ/SVQ assessment. The use of realistic working environments will be necessary to promote access to assessment for some beauty and spa therapy candidates at present.

Page 216: Edexcel NVQ/competence-based qualifications · Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – General (QCF) ... Edexcel NVQ/competence-based qualifications First registration August

BF034955 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – General – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – Make-up – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Nail Services – Issue 3 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

212

Simulated activities may only be used for Habia developed units where indicated in Appendix 1B. An additional, specific dispensation has been given to schemes operating in HM Prison Service whereby use of replica money is allowed within Unit G4 (Fulfil Salon Reception Duties) to prevent barriers to access caused by prison rules on cash usage. In addition to this, internal telephone systems can be used to cover Range 2 in particular by telephone. However, this cannot be done as a simulated activity and cannot be used within a role-play situation. The internal telephone system must be a permanent fixture and not set up for role-play activities. The Institute of Customer Service (ICS) has given a special dispensation for the ‘imported’ Customer Service unit listed below to be assessed in a Realistic Working Environment (RWE) conforming to Habia’s criteria specified in Appendix 1A: Unit G18 (ICS Unit 10), Level 2: Promote Additional Services or Products

to Clients. This dispensation in no way implies that the Customer Service NVQ/SVQ itself can be achieved in an RWE. The dispensation only applies to the imported unit above. As a matter of policy, Habia will work with industry experts and its Awarding Bodies to develop basic Evidence Requirements for use where Beauty and Spa Therapy National Occupational Standards are used for NVQ/SVQ purposes.

Approach to Achieving Greater External Quality Control of Assessment

Our strategy to address the above is as follows: An overall 100% achievement rate for the entire underpinning knowledge and understanding specification in the National Occupational Standards should be required of each candidate. Habia requires all Awarding Bodies to develop externally set mandatory question papers to cover critical areas of essential knowledge and understanding within specified units for the Beauty Therapy Levels 1, 2 and 3 and Spa Therapy Level 3 NVQs/SVQs. These units and the critical areas of knowledge have been detailed in Appendix 1C for Beauty and Spa Therapy units. For the Beauty Therapy Level 1 NVQ/SVQ, Habia requires all Awarding Bodies to set mandatory question papers to cover the critical areas of essential knowledge and understanding as specified in Appendix 1C. These papers should be designed so they may be administered by written or oral means at the discretion of the assessor. All mandatory question papers should be internally marked by assessors using answer and/or marking guides supplied by the Awarding Body. A minimum of two differently designed sets of questions and associated answer guides should be provided for all mandatory, designated areas of questioning.

Page 217: Edexcel NVQ/competence-based qualifications · Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – General (QCF) ... Edexcel NVQ/competence-based qualifications First registration August

BF034955 – Specification – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – General – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy – Make-up – Edexcel Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Nail Services – Issue 3 – April 2013 © Pearson Education Limited 2013

213

For externally set mandatory question papers, a 70% achievement rate must be attained under formal, ‘closed book’ assessment conditions, to avoid the necessity of a re-sit of the complete paper. For those achieving 70% or more, questions answered incorrectly may be reassessed by a variety of means (eg oral questioning, a repeat of the written questions, assignments) to ensure 100% achievement on the mandatory areas of questioning for the units being undertaken. All question and answer sheets must be collected from candidates and securely retained by the centre for internal and external verification purposes. It is expected suitable systems will be in place to prevent copying or plagiarism. It is anticipated that Awarding Bodies will make suitable alternative arrangements for those with identified special needs which may preclude them from undertaking written assessments (eg candidates who are identified as dyslexic). It is expected Awarding Bodies will ensure: the design of testing does not discriminate between those taking full

qualifications and individual units that assessment instruments do not directly or indirectly discriminate

against any particular group and ensure equality of opportunity appropriate to employment in the beauty and spa therapy industries

that candidates are not expected to repeat questions on knowledge ‘common’ to several units

arrangements are in place for testing to be carried out at a time to meet individual needs and rate of progress

where necessary, suitable arrangements are in place for reassessment of those areas where candidates have been shown to be ‘not yet competent’

suitable arrangements are put in place for those with disabilities affecting their reading and writing capabilities.

Assessment of Essential Knowledge and Understanding Items Outside the Specification for Externally Set Mandatory Question Papers

As a 100% achievement rate is required for the entire Knowledge and Understanding specification for each unit for each candidate, other means such as oral questioning and additional portfolio evidence must be used to demonstrate that all remaining items of underpinning knowledge and understanding have been assessed and achieved satisfactorily. Habia also requires that the Nationally Agreed Maximum Service Times quoted in Appendix 1F are used for assessment purposes for the particular, critical services listed for each level of the Beauty Therapy and Spa Therapy NVQs/SVQs.

214

Requirements for the Occupational Expertise of External Verifiers, Internal Verifiers and Assessors

Habia requires that: In addition to the requirements set out by the Regulatory Bodies, Habia specify the appropriate occupational expertise requirements. These requirements have been detailed in Appendix 1D for Beauty Therapy and Spa Therapy. All Habia Awarding Bodies must comply with these requirements when recruiting and selecting external verifiers and implement the requirements within their current external verifier teams. All Habia Awarding Bodies must ensure their Approved Centres comply with these requirements when recruiting and selecting internal verifiers and assessors and implement the requirements with their current internal verifiers and assessors. It is expected that as part of Awarding Body internal quality assurance processes, the qualifications and occupational expertise requirements of all involved in the assessment and verification process will be regularly monitored and recorded. Because of the ever changing nature of the industries Habia represents, it is essential that assessors and verifiers keep their technical skills up-to-date and at an occupational level appropriate to the NVQs/SVQs they are assessing or verifying. All assessors and verifiers must be able to demonstrate to their Awarding Body that they engage in appropriate continuing professional development (CPD) activities. To ensure consistency of approach on this matter across all Awarding Bodies delivering Habia NVQs/SVQs, it is a requirement that all Awarding Bodies implement Habia’s minimum requirements for CPD activities and put systems in place to monitor, record and ensure assessor and verifier achievement against these requirements. These appear in Appendix 1E for Beauty and Spa Therapy.

APPENDIX 1A

Beauty and Spa Therapy Realistic Working Environment Requirements

As the Standards Setting Body for the hair and beauty sectors, Habia is responsible for defining what constitutes a ‘Realistic Working Environment’ (RWE). Habia has set down the following criteria for the assessment location. This will ensure that all candidates are being assessed against the National Occupational Standards in a realistic working environment when not in an actual, commercial workplace. The following criteria must be included as part of centre approval and must be confirmed as being met during the first external verification visit. The criteria must then continue to be met on every subsequent visit. This will ensure that candidates are able to meet commercial needs in the workplace. 1. Assessment centres must develop realistic management procedures

that incorporate a ‘salon and/or spa image’* and sales and marketing policy to attract the type and number of clients needed to ensure that the requirements of the National Occupational Standards can be achieved.

2. All assessments must be carried out under realistic commercial pressures and on paying clients and not other candidates within the same group. Wherever possible, clients should vary in age and ethnicity so that the requirements of the National Occupational Standards can be achieved.

3. All services that are carried out should be completed in a commercially acceptable timescale. Maximum service times for particular, critical services have been developed by Habia for each Beauty Therapy and Spa Therapy NVQ/SVQ and are detailed in Appendix 1F. These times should be used for assessment purposes.

4. Candidates must be able to achieve a realistic volume of work. 5. The space per working area conforms to health and safety legislation

and commercial practice. 6. The range of services, professional products, tools, materials and

equipment must be up-to-date and available for use. They must enable candidates to meet the requirements of the National Occupational Standards.

7. A reception area where clients are greeted and general enquiries and appointments can be made by telephone or in person must be available. The reception area must also include a payment facility.

8. A retail facility must be provided with products that relate to the clients’ needs and the services offered.

9. The RWE must take full account of any bye-laws, legislation or local authority requirements that have been set down in relation to the type of work that is being carried out there.

Areas Within the Beauty and Spa Therapy National Occupational Standards for Which Mandatory Written Question Papers Must Be Developed

As a minimum requirement, Awarding Bodies are required to develop appropriate question papers to cover the areas of Knowledge and Understanding listed below. A written paper must be produced for each technical unit. It is also recommended that a separate written paper be produced to cover the anatomy and physiology across all of the units in each qualification to prevent repetition. For Beauty Therapy Level 1, these papers should be deliverable in either written or oral formats at the discretion of the assessor. Appropriate written question papers must be available for the Beauty Therapy NVQs/SVQs Levels 2 and 3 and the Spa Therapy NVQ/SVQ Level 3.

5 Assessors and verifiers for non-technical units who are not beauty therapists and spa therapists

5.1 There are several units in the NVQs/SVQs that cover generic skills, assessed in a beauty or spa therapy context. Some centres use assessors and verifiers from other occupations to assess and verify these.

5.2 ENTO Units HSS1 and HSS3, ICS Unit 10, SFEDI Units BD1 and BI2, Skillset Units HM1, HM6, HM7 and HM19 have been imported into the Habia standards for beauty and spa therapy. Assessors of these units must meet the requirements laid down by these Standards Setting Bodies in their own Assessment Strategies.

5.3 Non-technical beauty and spa therapy Habia units: the same criteria as for assessors and internal verifiers who are beauty therapists will apply, inserting the relevant NVQ/SVQ or equivalent qualification or experience and the relevant occupational area. This does not apply to external verifiers who will always be beauty or spa therapists for the Habia units. For the sake of clarification, beauty and spa therapy units cannot be internally verified by non-beauty or spa therapists.

i) Occupational expertise requirements for assessors who are not beauty or spa therapists

Non-Beauty or Spa Therapy assessors must have the relevant Level 2 and Level 3 NVQs/SVQs plus sufficient relevant industrial experience or substantial operational experience that is current and appropriate to the level(s) of NVQ/SVQ units they are intending to assess. Where individuals have qualifications other than the relevant NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. Assessors will only be able to assess those units in which they have formally demonstrated their competence or have shown evidence of operational experience.

For NVQs, UKCES requires that assessors hold Unit A1 or A2 (if just recording observations) OR Unit D32 and/or Unit D33. New assessors must have a clear action plan for achieving Unit A1 and/or Unit A2 within eighteen months of beginning assessment duties. Assessment decisions by assessors who are still working towards certification must be supported by an assessor or verifier who has gained certification. This can be achieved by checking a sample of assessment decisions. For SVQs, SQA Accreditation requires that assessors be

occupationally competent and must hold Units A1 and/or A2***, OR hold D32 and/or D33.

Please note that Habia generally requires assessors hold or are working towards Unit A1 OR hold D32 and D33. In addition, in this case where the assessor does not have a beauty therapy or spa therapy background, then she/he must have obtained a working knowledge of the beauty therapy or spa therapy industry as the context for assessment, through briefing or induction, or ideally through a period of experience in a salon or spa.

ii) Occupational expertise requirements for internal verifiers who are not beauty therapists or spa therapists.

Non-beauty or spa therapy internal verifiers must have the relevant Level 3 NVQ/SVQ plus sufficient relevant industrial experience or substantial operational experience that is current and appropriate to the level(s) of NVQ/SVQ units they are intending to internally verify. Where individuals have qualifications other than the relevant NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. They must also have at least sufficient experience of assessing the relevant NVQs/SVQs or relevant units.

For NVQs, UKCES requires that internal verifiers hold Unit V1 or D34 and, it is recommended, also hold Unit A1 or D32 and D33. New internal verifiers must have a clear action plan for achieving Unit V1 within eighteen months of beginning internal verification. Without an appropriately qualified internal verifier, the centre must understand that it cannot submit claims for certification to the Awarding Body. For SVQs, SQA Accreditation requires that internal verifiers be

occupationally competent and must hold or be working towards Unit V1 OR hold D34. Unit A1 or D33 is also desirable.***

Please note that Habia requires all internal verifiers hold Unit A1 or D32 and D33*** and hold D34 or hold or are working towards V1. In addition, in this case where the internal verifier does not have a beauty or spa therapy background, then she/he must have obtained a working knowledge of the beauty therapy or spa therapy industry as the context for assessment, through briefing or induction, or ideally through a period of experience in a salon or spa.

In this case where assessors and/or internal verifiers do not have a beauty therapy or spa therapy background, then a period of experience in a salon or attending beauty therapy or spa therapy specific event(s) relevant to the units being assessed or verified will help them become more familiar with the requirements of the beauty therapy or spa therapy industries. * Where individuals have qualifications other than the Beauty Therapy or Spa Therapy NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. Assessors will only be able to assess those units in which they have formally demonstrated their competence or have shown evidence of operational experience.

** Substantial operational experience means substantial hands on work served within the beauty therapy or spa therapy industry. This can include time in any role in the beauty therapy or spa therapy industry, for example as a therapist, trainer, lecturer, assessor, verifier or salon manager/owner.

APPENDIX 1E

Requirements for Continuing Professional Development for Assessors and Verifiers of Beauty and Spa Therapy Technical Units

From 1 September 2001 as a condition of centre approval and continuing centre approval, centres were required to establish an ongoing, fully resourced Staff Development Plan, capable of supporting the Habia CPD requirement. (Preferably such a Staff Development Plan should link to IIP or other formally recognised quality assurance systems.) Assessors and verifiers must be able to demonstrate to the Awarding Body how they keep their beauty therapy or spa therapy technical skills and knowledge up-to-date and to the occupational level at which they are assessing and/or verifying. Continuing Professional Development (CPD) must take place throughout the careers of assessors and verifiers. This must include the completion of a minimum number of hours’ CPD in each 12- month period using activities approved for CPD (see below). The minimum, annual CPD requirement for assessors and verifiers is as follows: A total, minimum requirement for 30 hours’ CPD per annum which does not have to be consecutive. The CPD requirement must be carried out in one or a combination of the types of activities listed below. No activity will carry a ‘double hours’ allowance. ‘Hands on’ delivery of beauty therapy or spa therapy services to fee

paying clients in a commercial salon or spa that can be shown to develop individual skill and knowledge levels

Undertaking technical beauty therapy or spa therapy training that develops new and/or updates existing skills and/or knowledge levels

Further beauty therapy or spa therapy qualification work. The following activities will not count towards CPD: reading the trade press and books listening to tapes and watching videos. (However, the above are recommended for background knowledge to support CPD but are not approved for inclusion in the CPD hours requirement.) Individuals must provide relevant and suitable evidence that CPD has taken place within each 12-month period to be measured from 1 September – 31 August.

Explanatory notes:

i. Technical beauty therapy and spa therapy training – external and internal workshops and training sessions are eligible.

ii. Commercial salon or spa – this is defined as a salon or spa where the majority of beauty therapists or spa therapists are already qualified and the main function of the salon or spa is not training and assessment. If a training salon or spa in a centre is closed and reopened as a commercial salon or spa, eg during holiday periods, then this is an acceptable location for CPD to be undertaken. If there is any doubt as to the acceptability of the arrangement, guidance should be sought from Habia.

iii. Beauty therapy and spa therapy qualification work – the aim of this option is to encourage assessors and verifiers to gain new skills or to update current ones. Work undertaken for this option must lead to a formally assessed and accredited qualification or unit of an NVQ/SVQ.

A nominal 30 hours has been allocated to the achievement of any beauty therapy or spa therapy unit qualification in any one CPD year. The same unit should not be taken twice during the lifetime of any particular NVQ/SVQ or repeated within any 5-year period.

Other activities may be acceptable for CPD for which prior approval should be gained from Habia.

Calculating CPD hours

a) CPD for existing assessors and verifiers is measured within each 12-month period, taken from 1 September–31 August each year.

b) CPD hours for new assessors and verifiers shall be measured from the date their duties commence.

c) Assessors and verifiers who take leave from assessment or verification duties during any 12-month period will be able to collect CPD pro rata.

d) The CPD hours for part-time assessors and verifiers will be calculated pro rata based on a nominal 37 hour week. However, a minimum of five hours’ CPD in any 12-month period must be carried out by all part-time assessors and verifiers.

For example, an assessor contracted for 7 hours/week: 7 37 x 100 = approx. 20% of a full time assessor. 20% x 30 hours = 6 hours CPD in any 12 month period.

e) A nominal time of 30 hours per NVQ/SVQ unit achieved has been set, regardless of the unit.

f) If you are an assessor and a verifier, you only have to do the minimum of 30 hours’ CPD, not 60 hours.

g) All external verifiers must complete a minimum of 30 hours’ CPD per annum regardless of actual hours worked as an external verifier.

APPENDIX 1G

Special Requirements: Intimate Waxing

Owing to the nature of Units B26 and B27 and given the current Child Protection legislation, it is required that both candidates and their clients MUST be 18 years of age and over. It is also required candidates for these units already: hold a nationally recognised waxing qualification AND/OR at least sufficient commercial waxing experience. It is preferred that candidates meet both the above criteria.

Assessment Strategy for Nail Services NVQs

Key Mandatory Components of the Assessment Strategy

Performance in the workplace, the use of realistic working environments, requirements for a realistic working environment and the use of specific simulated activities

Habia’s approach to External Quality Control of Assessment The requirements for the occupational expertise of External Verifiers,

Internal Verifiers and Assessors. Each of the above is expanded in more detail below.

Performance in the Workplace and Use of Simulations

The Nail Services NVQs/SVQs may be assessed in the workplace and/or an approved ‘realistic working environment’ meeting the criteria set out in Appendix 1A. Habia wishes to make clear its stance on the use of simulated activities and a realistic working environment. The key criterion for allowing the use of simulated activities in the assessment of performance is the rarity of the opportunity to undertake the activities required by the standard of competence. Examples of these activities include: dealing with fire and other emergencies dealing with health and safety activities outside or peripheral to normal

practices client/customer relationships contra-indications/contra-actions. Therefore, a simulated activity is viewed as ‘any structured assessment exercise involving a specific task which reproduces real life situations’. In this it is distinct and separate from the use of an approved realistic working environment as the latter allows the candidate to perform an entire occupational role over an extended period of time, in an environment which as closely as possible replicates the working environment and involves real work on real clients drawn from members of the public. Habia considers evidence generated in a realistic working environment meeting the criteria set out in Appendix 1A, as acceptable for the purposes of Nail Services NVQ/SVQ assessment. The use of realistic working environments will be necessary to promote access to assessment for some Nail Services candidates at present. Simulated activities may only be used for Habia developed units where indicated in Appendix 1B. An additional, specific dispensation has been given to schemes operating in HM Prison Service whereby use of replica money is allowed within Unit G4 (Fulfil salon reception duties) to prevent barriers to access caused by prison rules on cash usage.

243

In addition to this, internal telephone systems can be used to cover Range 2 in particular by telephone. However, this cannot be done as a simulated activity and cannot be used within a role-play situation. The internal telephone system must be a permanent fixture and not set up for role-play activities. The Institute of Customer Service (ICS) has given a special dispensation for the ‘imported’ Customer Service unit listed below to be assessed in a Realistic Working Environment (RWE) conforming to Habia’s criteria specified in Appendix 1A: Unit G18 (ICS Unit 10), Level 2: Promote Additional Services or Products

to Clients This dispensation in no way implies that the Customer Service NVQ/SVQ itself can be achieved in an RWE. The dispensation only applies to the imported unit above. As a matter of policy, Habia will work with industry experts and its Awarding Bodies to develop basic Evidence Requirements for use where Nail Services National Occupational Standards are used for NVQ/SVQ purposes.

Approach to Achieving Greater External Quality Control of Assessment

Our strategy to address the above is as follows: An overall 100% achievement rate for the entire underpinning knowledge and understanding specification in the National Occupational Standards should be required of each candidate. Habia requires all Awarding Bodies to develop externally set mandatory question papers to cover critical areas of essential knowledge and understanding within specified units for the Nail Services Levels 2 and 3 NVQs/SVQs. These units and the critical areas of knowledge have been detailed in Appendix 1C for Nail Services units. All mandatory question papers should be internally marked by assessors using answer and/or marking guides supplied by the Awarding Body. A minimum of two differently designed sets of questions and associated answer guides should be provided for all mandatory, designated areas of questioning. For externally set mandatory question papers, a 70% achievement rate must be attained under formal, ‘closed book’ assessment conditions, to avoid the necessity of a resit of the complete paper. For those achieving 70% or more, questions answered incorrectly may be reassessed by a variety of means (eg oral questioning, a repeat of the written questions, assignments) to ensure 100% achievement on the mandatory areas of questioning for the units being undertaken. All question and answer sheets must be collected from candidates and securely retained by the centre for internal and external verification purposes. It is expected suitable systems will be in place to prevent copying or plagiarism.

244

It is anticipated that Awarding Bodies will make suitable alternative arrangements for those with identified special needs which may preclude them from undertaking written assessments (eg candidates who are identified as dyslexic). It is expected Awarding Bodies will ensure: the design of testing does not discriminate between those taking full

qualifications and individual units that assessment instruments do not directly or indirectly discriminate

against any particular group and ensure equality of opportunity appropriate to employment in the Nail Services industry

that candidates are not expected to repeat questions on knowledge ‘common’ to several units

arrangements are in place for testing to be carried out at a time to meet individual needs and rate of progress

where necessary, suitable arrangements are in place for reassessment of those areas where candidates have been shown to be ‘not yet competent’

suitable arrangements are put in place for those with disabilities affecting their reading and writing capabilities.

Assessment of Essential Knowledge and Understanding Items Outside the Specification for Externally Set Mandatory Question Papers

As a 100% achievement rate is required for the entire Knowledge and Understanding specification for each unit for each candidate, other means such as oral questioning and additional portfolio evidence must be used to demonstrate that all remaining items of underpinning knowledge and understanding have been assessed and achieved satisfactorily. Habia also requires that the Nationally Agreed Maximum Service Times quoted in Appendix 1F are used for assessment purposes for the particular, critical services listed for each level of the Nail Services NVQ/SVQ.

Requirements for the Occupational Expertise of External Verifiers, Internal Verifiers and Assessors

Habia requires that: In addition to the requirements set out by the Regulatory Bodies, Habia specify the appropriate occupational expertise requirements. These requirements have been detailed in Appendix 1D for Nail Services. All Habia Awarding Bodies must comply with these requirements when recruiting and selecting external verifiers and implement the requirements within their current external verifier teams. All Habia Awarding Bodies must ensure their Approved Centres comply with these requirements when recruiting and selecting internal verifiers and assessors and implement the requirements with their current internal verifiers and assessors.

245

It is expected that as part of Awarding Body internal quality assurance processes, the qualifications and occupational expertise requirements of all involved in the assessment and verification process will be regularly monitored and recorded. Because of the ever changing nature of the industries Habia represents, it is essential that assessors and verifiers keep their technical skills up-to-date and at an occupational level appropriate to the NVQs/SVQs they are assessing or verifying. All assessors and verifiers must be able to demonstrate to their Awarding Body that they engage in appropriate continuing professional development (CPD) activities. To ensure consistency of approach on this matter across all Awarding Bodies delivering Habia NVQs/SVQs, it is a requirement that all Awarding Bodies implement Habia’s minimum requirements for CPD activities and put systems in place to monitor, record and ensure assessor and verifier achievement against these requirements. These appear in Appendix 1E for Nail Services.

Appendix 1A

Nail Services Realistic Working Environment Requirements

As the Standards Setting Body for the Hair, Beauty and Body Art sectors, Habia is responsible for defining what constitutes a ‘Realistic Working Environment’ (RWE). Habia has set down the following criteria for the assessment location. This will ensure that all candidates are being assessed against the National Occupational Standards in a realistic working environment when not in an actual, commercial workplace. The following criteria must be included as part of centre approval and must be confirmed as being met during the first external verification visit. The criteria must then continue to be met on every subsequent visit. This will ensure that candidates are able to meet commercial needs in the workplace. 1. Assessment centres must develop realistic management procedures

that incorporate a ‘salon image’* and sales and marketing policy to attract the type and number of clients needed to ensure that the requirements of the National Occupational Standards can be achieved.

2. All assessments must be carried out under realistic commercial pressures and on paying clients and not other candidates within the same group. Wherever possible, clients should vary in age and ethnicity so that the requirements of the National Occupational Standards can be achieved.

3. All services that are carried out should be completed in a commercially acceptable timescale. Maximum service times for particular, critical services have been developed by Habia for each Nail Services NVQ/SVQ and are detailed in Appendix 1F. These times should be used for assessment purposes.

4. Candidates must be able to achieve a realistic volume of work. 5. The space per working area conforms to health and safety legislation

and commercial practice. 6. The range of services, professional products, tools, materials and

equipment must be up-to-date and available for use. They must enable candidates to meet the requirements of the National Occupational Standards.

7. A reception area where clients are greeted and general enquiries and appointments can be made by telephone or in person must be available. The reception area must also include a payment facility.

8. A retail facility must be provided with products that relate to the clients’ needs and the services offered.

9. The RWE must take full account of any bye-laws, legislation or local authority requirements that have been set down in relation to the type of work that is being carried out there.

10. Candidates must work in a professional manner taking into account establishment requirements such as: i appearance and dress code ii personal conduct iii hygiene iv reliability v punctuality.

11. Candidates are given workplace responsibilities to enable them to meet the requirements of the National Occupational Standards.

*The use of the word ‘salon’ is not intended to deny access to the Nail Services qualification if you deliver services in other locations (eg hospitals, care centres, etc). It refers to any place where professional services are carried out. However, the location must meet health and safety requirements for Nail Services.

APPENDIX 1C

Areas Within the Nail Services National Occupational Standards for Which Mandatory Written Question Papers Must Be Developed

As a minimum requirement, Awarding Bodies are required to develop appropriate question papers to cover the areas of Knowledge and Understanding listed below. A written paper must be produced for each technical unit. It is also recommended that a separate written paper be produced to cover the anatomy and physiology across all of the units in each qualification to prevent repetition. Appropriate written question papers must be available for the Nail Services NVQs/SVQs at Levels 2 and 3.

APPENDIX 1D

Occupational Expertise Requirements for Nail Services Assessors and Verifiers

1 Introduction 1.1 As the Standards Setting Body for the hair and beauty sectors, Habia

is responsible for defining the occupational expertise requirements for assessors and verifiers in consultation with employers, centres and Awarding Bodies. The assessor and verifier occupational expertise requirements for the Nail Services NVQs and SVQs are shown below.

1.2 Please note that these requirements will take effect from 1 August 2010 and will apply to all assessors and verifiers. This version dated March 2009 supersedes all previous versions.

1.3 Please note all assessors and verifers still working with the existing standards will continue to use and follow the August 2007 Assessment Strategy requirements.

2 Assessors 2.1 From 1 August 2010 all new Nail Service assessors must:

2.1.1 hold EITHER the Level 2 and/or 3 Nail Services NVQs/SVQs or equivalent* plus sufficient relevant post qualification industrial experience that is current and appropriate to the unit(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to assess

OR substantial operational experience** that is current and

appropriate to the units(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to assess.

In addition they should undertake and achieve, within 18 months, the current Nail Services L2 and or L3 NVQ/SVQ appropriate to the unit(s) they are intending to assess.

2.1.2 hold or be working towards Unit A1 if carrying out all forms of assessment

OR hold Units D32 and D33 to assess the complete Nail Services

NVQs/SVQs (those work based assessors only required to make and record observations may hold just D32)

OR hold or be working towards Unit A2 if only carrying out

observations in the workplace.

256

2.2 From 1 August 2010 all existing assessors holding just the Level 2 Nail Services NVQ/SVQ or equivalent will only be able to assess the Level 2 Nail Services NVQ/SVQ. They will not be eligible for internal verifier or external verifier roles.

3 Internal verifiers 3.1 From 1 August 2010 all Nail Service internal verifiers must:

3.1.1 hold the Level 3 Nail Services NVQs/SVQs or equivalent* plus sufficient relevant post qualification industrial experience that is current and appropriate to the units(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to internally verify

OR substantial operational experience** that is current and

appropriate to the units(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to internally verify, and

3.1.2 hold Unit A1 or Units D32 and D33 and 3.1.3 hold D34 or hold or be working towards Unit V1 3.1.4 have sufficient experience of assessing Nail Service

NVQs/SVQs.

4 External verifiers 4.1 From 1 August 2010 all Nail Service external verifiers must:

4.1.1 hold the Level 2 and/or 3 Nail Services NVQs/SVQs or equivalent* plus sufficient relevant post qualification industrial experience that is current and appropriate to the units(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to externally verify

OR substantial operational experience** that is current and

appropriate to the units(s) of NVQ/SVQ they are intending to externally verify, and

4.1.2 hold Unit A1 or Units D32 and D33 and 4.1.3 hold or be working towards Unit V2 or hold D35 and are

strongly advised to hold Unit V1 or D34 4.1.4 have sufficient experience assessing and/or internally

verifying within Nail Service NVQs/SVQs.

5 Assessors and verifiers for non-technical units who are not nail technicians

5.1 There are several units in the NVQs/SVQs that cover generic skills, assessed in a Nail Services context. Some centres use assessors and verifiers from other occupations to assess and verify these.

257

5.2 ENTO Units HSS1 and HSS3, ICS Unit 10, SFEDI Units BD1 and BI2 have been imported into the Habia standards: Assessors of these units must meet the requirements laid down by these Standards Setting Bodies in their Assessment Strategies

5.3 Non-technical Nail Services Habia units: the same criteria as for assessors and internal verifiers who are nail technicians will apply, inserting the relevant NVQ/SVQ or equivalent qualification or experience and the relevant occupational area. This does not apply to external verifiers who will always be nail technicians for the Habia units. For the sake of clarification, Nail Services units cannot be internally verified by non-nail technicians.

i) Occupational expertise requirements for assessors who are not nail technicians

Non-Nail Technician Assessors must have the relevant Level 2 and Level 3 NVQs/SVQs plus substantial relevant industrial experience or substantial operational experience that is current and appropriate to the level(s) of NVQ/SVQ units they are intending to assess. Where individuals have qualifications other than the relevant NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. Assessors will only be able to assess those units in which they have formally demonstrated their competence or have shown evidence of operational experience.

For NVQs, UKCES requires that assessors hold Unit A1 or A2 (if just recording observations) OR Unit D32 and/or Unit D33. New assessors must have a clear action plan for achieving Unit A1 and/or Unit A2 within eighteen months of beginning assessment duties. Assessment decisions by assessors who are still working towards certification must be supported by an assessor or verifier who has gained certification. This can be achieved by checking a sample of assessment decisions. For SVQs, SQA Accreditation requires that assessors be

occupationally competent and must hold Units A1 and/or A2, OR hold D32 and/or D33.

Please note that Habia generally requires assessors hold or are working towards Unit A1 OR hold D32 and D33. In addition, in this case where the assessor does not have a Nail Services background, then she/he must have obtained a working knowledge of the Nail Services industry as the context for assessment, through briefing or induction, or ideally through a period of experience in a salon.

ii) Occupational expertise requirements for internal verifiers who are not nail technicians

Non-Nail Services internal verifiers must have the relevant Level 3 NVQs/SVQs plus sufficient relevant industrial experience or substantial operational experience that is current and appropriate to the level(s) of NVQ/SVQ units they are intending to internally verify. Where individuals have qualifications other than the relevant NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. They must also have at least sufficient experience of assessing the relevant NVQs/SVQs or relevant units.

258

For NVQs, UKCES requires that internal verifiers hold Unit V1 or D34 and, it is recommended, also hold Unit A1 or D32 and D33. New internal verifiers must have a clear action plan for achieving Unit V1 within eighteen months of beginning internal verification. Without an appropriately qualified internal verifier, the centre must understand that it cannot submit claims for certification to the Awarding Body. For SVQs, SQA Accreditation requires that internal verifiers be

occupationally competent and must hold or be working towards Unit V1 OR hold D34. Unit A1 or D33 is also desirable.

Please note that Habia requires all internal verifiers hold Unit A1 or D32 and D33 and hold or are working towards V1. In addition, in this case where the internal verifier does not have a Nail Services background, then she/he must have obtained a working knowledge of the Nail Services industry as the context for assessment, through briefing or induction, or ideally through a period of experience in a salon.

In this case where assessors and/or internal verifiers do not have a Nail Services background, then a period of experience in a salon or attending Nail Services specific event(s) relevant to the units being assessed or verified will help them become more familiar with the requirements of the Nail Services industry. * Where individuals have qualifications other than the Nail Services NVQs/SVQs, they or their centre should contact their Awarding Body to determine the acceptability of these qualifications. Assessors will only be able to assess those units in which they have formally demonstrated their competence or have shown evidence of operational experience.

** substantial operational experience means substantial hands on work served within the Nail Services industry. This can include time in any role in the Nail Services industry, for example as a technician, trainer, lecturer, assessor, verifier or salon manager/owner.

APPENDIX 1E

Requirements for Continuing Professional Development for Assessors and Verifiers of Nail Services Technical Units

From 1 September 2001 as a condition of centre approval and continuing centre approval, centres were required to establish an ongoing, fully resourced Staff Development Plan, capable of supporting the Habia CPD requirement. (Preferably, such a Staff Development Plan should link to IIP or other formally recognised quality assurance systems.) Assessors and verifiers must be able to demonstrate to the Awarding Body how they keep their Nail Services technical skills and knowledge up-to-date and to the occupational level at which they are assessing and/or verifying. Continuing Professional Development (CPD) must take place throughout the careers of assessors and verifiers. This must include the completion of a minimum number of hours’ CPD in each 12-month period using activities approved for CPD (see below). The minimum, annual CPD requirement for assessors and verifiers is as follows: A total, minimum requirement for 30 hours’ CPD per annum which does not have to be consecutive. The CPD requirement must be carried out in one or a combination of the types of activities listed below. No activity will carry a ‘double hours’ allowance. ‘Hands on’ delivery of Nail Services to fee paying clients in a commercial

salon that can be shown to develop individual skill and knowledge levels Undertaking technical Nail Services training that develops new and/or

updates existing skills and/or knowledge levels Further nails services qualification work. The following activities will not count towards CPD: reading the trade press and books listening to tapes and watching videos. (However, the above are recommended for background knowledge to support CPD but are not approved for inclusion in the CPD hours requirement.) Individuals must provide relevant and suitable evidence that CPD has taken place within each 12-month period to be measured from 1 September — 31 August.

Explanatory Notes:

i. Technical Nail Services training – external and internal workshops and training sessions are eligible.

ii. Commercial salon – this is defined as a salon where the majority of nail technicians are already qualified and the main function of the salon is not training and assessment. If a training salon in a centre is closed and reopened as a commercial salon, eg during holiday periods, then this is an acceptable location for CPD to be undertaken. If there is any doubt as to the acceptability of the arrangement, guidance should be sought from Habia.

iii. Nail Services qualification work – the aim of this option is to encourage assessors and verifiers to gain new skills or to update current ones. Work undertaken for this option must lead to a formally assessed and accredited qualification or unit of an NVQ/SVQ.

A nominal 30 hours has been allocated to the achievement of any Nail Services unit qualification in any one CPD year. The same unit should not be taken twice during the lifetime of any particular NVQ/SVQ or repeated within any five-year period.

Other activities may be acceptable for CPD for which prior approval should be gained from Habia.

Calculating CPD Hours

a) CPD for existing assessors and verifiers is measured within each 12-month period, taken from 1 September–31 August each year.

b) CPD hours for new assessors and verifiers shall be measured from the date their duties commence.

c) Assessors and verifiers who take leave from assessment or verification duties during any 12-month period will be able to collect CPD pro rata.

d) The CPD hours for part-time assessors and verifiers will be calculated pro rata based on a nominal 37 hour week. However, a minimum of five hours’ CPD in any 12-month period must be carried out by all part-time assessors and verifiers.

For example, an assessor contracted for 7 hours/week: 7 37 x 100 = approx. 20% of a full time assessor. 20% x 30 hours = 6 hours’ CPD in any 12-month period.

e) A nominal time of 30 hours per NVQ/SVQ unit achieved has been set, regardless of the unit.

f) If you are an assessor and a verifier, you only have to do the minimum of 30 hours’ CPD, not 60 hours.

g) All external verifiers must complete a minimum of 30 hours’ CPD per annum regardless of actual hours worked as an external verifier.
