The EAL SVQ Performing Engineering Operations at SCQF Level 4 has been designed to allow a learner to evidence their competence in completing engineering tasks related to their job role. The assessment routes (units) within the qualification have been developed from the relevant National Occupational Standards developed and published by Enginuity, the sector skills council for the engineering sector.
This qualification consists of three mandatory units and a minimum of two optional units as detailed within the qualification structure in section 4.0 of the qualification Manual.
The overall grading type for this qualification is Pass/Fail. Assessment routes will be assessed and endorsed against the learners chosen discipline. Learners will be required to create a Portfolio of Evidence to prove their competence and should therefore select the assessment routes that reflect the job roles they will carry out in the workplace to be able to obtain the required evidence.
The SVQ in Performing Engineering Operations at SCQF Level 4 is intended to have a wide application throughout the engineering sector. It is necessary therefore, to have a flexible approach to the environment in which the units are delivered and assessed therefore it is not essential that the learner must be employed in the industry but could perform the tasks and assessments in a sheltered environment. Completion of the qualification could lead to employment in a suitable work environment later.
Learners will be assessed in relation to their chosen discipline and endorsed accordingly. The endorsement will be printed on their certificate to show future employers which discipline was covered during their assessment. Achievement of this qualification could lead to progression on to the EAL SVQ Performing Engineering Operations at SCQF Level 5.
