Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA) (RQF) Level 3

The Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA) is the only assessor qualification that allows you to practise as a fully-qualified assessor. It is equally suitable to assessors in classrooms or professional training.
