How the qualification is assessed:

The course is run at our training venue for 2 days. This qualification is assessed in two ways. Firstly a 30-question, multiple-choice examination. The duration of the examination is 60 minutes and to successfully pass you must achieve a score of at least 20 out of 30. Secondly, learners will undertake a risk assessment in an appropriate workplace and record their results onto a risk assessment. The risk assessment will be internally assessed by Dynamo Concise Training and once completed to the required standard, will be sent off to be marked.
