Stage 1 – Competency Profiling and Evaluation

The purpose of the Competency Profile is to determine:
 
  • The most appropriate level at which to commence the NVQ programme.
  • The individual’s strengths and weaknesses across the Supply Chain process.
  • The most appropriate units to be nominated and which reflect the student’s scope of work.
  • The employing organisation’s objectives and how they may impact upon the student.
  • Any special needs, or requirements, a student may have in relation to their respective NVQ programme.

The process we implement to achieve the above will include:
 
  • Completion of Qube-Profiler our on-line formative Diagnostic Assessment Tool (F-DAT)
  • A structured interview between the assessor and the student which focus' on key behavioural competencies including evaluation of their job role / description and CV
  • A three way discussion between the assessor, the student, and their employer.

The information gathered is then evaluated and our recommendation summarised in a report, which is then submitted to both the student and their manager for final approval. Any issues which may arise from the findings of the report would be discussed in more detail at the induction and assessment planning meeting.
