Types of evidence includes:

1. Direct observation of the learner’s performance by their assessor 

2. Outcomes from oral or written questioning 

3. Products of the learner’s work 

4. Personal statements and/or reflective accounts 

5. Outcomes from simulation, where permitted by the Assessment Strategy 

6. Professional discussion 

7. Authentic statements/witness testimony 

8. Expert witness testimony 

9. Evidence of Recognition of Prior Learning 

Learners can use one piece of evidence to prove their knowledge, skills and understanding across different assessment criteria and/or across different units. It is, therefore, not necessary for learners to have each assessment criterion assessed separately.

Your assessor will ask you for the evidence he needs from you and then will upload it and cross-reference it on the platform against the different assessment criteria. When all the evidence has been collected and assessed on the platform, it will then be internally verified and finally assessed by Edexcel before they produce your Diploma Certificate.
