LEARNING OUTCOMES AND ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The learning outcomes and assessment criteria for the qualifications have been updated where required and can be found in the relevant FAA Qualification Specification available to download on NucoPlus.  

FAA COURSE PAPERWORK AND GUIDANCE

The FAA course paperwork and guidance has been reviewed and the updated documentation can be found on NucoPlus. By using the new paperwork, guidance, and PowerPoint and trainer notes, you will ensure that you are teaching to the current requirements.

A trainer/assessor must ensure they use the new course paperwork and all required FAA guidance, and destroy any old course paperwork they may be holding for the above qualifications by the 1st July 2023.

It is essential that everyone is fully familiarised with the new assessment paperwork prior to use.

FAA GUIDANCE

All the qualifications have an FAA Marking Guide and trainer/assessors must refer to the FAA Classroom Course, Paperwork, and Assessment Guidance in conjunction with the relevant FAA Marking Guide, FAA Session Plan, and FAA Practical Assessment Record as relevant.

The FAA Classroom Course, Paperwork, and Assessment Guidance can be found on NucoPlus and accessed by links provided on FAA documentation.

FAA SESSION PLANS AND FAA QUALIFICATION SPECIFICATIONS

The FAA Session Plans and FAA Qualification Specifications for these qualifications have been amended and can be downloaded from NucoPlus.

The training notes and PowerPoint presentations have been updated accordingly and are available on NucoPlus.
