  Assessment guideline

  Introduction

  The only way to establish whether you are competent and have accomplished the learning outcomes is through continuous assessments. This assessment process involves interpreting evidence about your ability to perform certain tasks. You will be required to perform certain procedures and tasks during the training programme and will be assessed on them to certify your competence.

  This module includes assessments in the form of self-evaluations/activities and exercises. The exercises, activities, and self-assessments will be done in pairs, groups or on your own. These exercises/activities or self-assessments (learner workbook) must be handed to the facilitator. It will be added to your portfolio of evidence, which will be proof signed by your facilitator that you have successfully performed these tasks.

  Listen carefully to the instructions of the facilitator and do the given activities in the time given to you.
