The Verifier Award (J8RT 04 Unit - Internally Monitor and Maintain the Quality of Workplace

The internal quality assurance process being conducted by the internal verifier can be for SVQs, work-based qualifications or in-company standards.
Please see the non-SVQ qualifications on our website if you will be verifying other qualifications.
This Unit is for those monitoring assessment processes and decisions within an organisation and helping to maintain and improve the quality assurance systems.
