The Essential Guide
Our NVQ Essential Guide contains all the key information that you’ll need to know about administering, assessing and verifying our NVQs.

The guide details what you need to do and who you can talk to at NCFE about anything ranging from gaining centre approval to claiming certificates.


Internal Verifier Handbook
The handbook outlines why we need Internal Verification and how this fits in with the External Verification visits provided by NCFE. It includes detailed information on the role and duties of the Internal Verifier and provides useful sources of information to support the Internal Verifier in their role.



External Verifier Handbook
The External Verifier Handbook is for our External Verifiers and explains their role, and the support systems we’ve put in place to ensure that they can carry out their role effectively.  The External Verifiers ensure that NCFE NVQs are delivered and assessed appropriately. The handbook is full of useful information that should help them to answer questions from centres and make working with us easy.
