Achieving Expert Level: The Exam
The exam
A certification scheme at Expert Level must meet the expectations and perceptions of its stakeholders and has to be seen to be truly “expert”. The exam therefore consists of a multiple-choice section and a written “essay” section A score above 75% is required to pass
Gain practical experience with workplace exercises
Some learning objectives (mostly K5 and K6) may be performed at the student’s place of work instead of in the classroom. These are identified in each syllabus.
Workplace exercises are particularly useful for syllabi requiring more than 5 days of tuition.
Example: A Test Management course using Workplace Workplace Exercises. Exercises Course Part 1: 5 days
Course Part 2: 4 days
In this example, the Training Provider gives part 1 as a 5-day course. Participants then perform exercises in the workplace. At the start of part 2, a day of feedback (not mandatory) is given before completing the training.
