Assessor and IQA qualifications
What are assessment qualifications?
Assessment qualifications are often referred to as the TAQA suite. TAQA is a blanket term for a group of qualifications. The acronym TAQA stands for Training, Assessment, and Quality Assurance.
CAVA is a well-known acronym for one of these TAQA qualifications – the Level 3 Certificate in Assessing Vocational Achievement. CAVA is the most popular in colleges and formal educational settings, but is not always the most appropriate for those assessing solely in a workplace environment.
Assessment qualifications are split between level 3 qualifications, which qualify those who work as assessors (full time or as part of a larger role), and level 4 qualifications, which qualify those who carry out Internal Quality Assurance.

Customer testimonials
National Crime Agency – IQA Training
My assessor was excellent, she helped me so much throughout and the sessions we had were first class – providing the guidance and support that was needed and from assessment perspective, always providing feedback in a lovely but extremely professional manner. I cannot fault the service at all.
National Probation Service Assessor Training
My assessor was excellent, she made me feel so at ease and I always understood what was expected of me and the types of evidence required. She was so supportive but ensured that I remained responsible for my own learning, exactly how I work best! Thank you.
