Expert Witness (L20)

Learner Profile

An Expert Witness is an individual within the workplace with the occupational competence to witness NVQ Learners’ practice other than the assessor or mentor.  It is appropriate for care supervisors or senior employees who play a role in supporting new and existing staff with gaining an NVQ. 

This unit is recognised by City and Guilds as the required unit for those who fulfil the role of the Expert Witness.

Employer Benefits

• This will assist with enabling the Learner to progress with confidence and support through their award.

• This role fits well with supervision and appraisal, as it is an opportunity for staff to receive formal feedback to use towards their NVQ.

• To work in partnership with the training and assessment centre to facilitate Learners achievement.

Course Outline

This is a one unit course which can be achieved as a stand alone unit or within the Learning and Development award.  Learners can expect to enhance and consolidate their skills and knowledge.

This can be seen as a stepping stone for those who may ultimately go on to become an Assessor.
