So what should you do now?

Read the Guide to gain an overview of the requirements. In conjunction with the Portfolio of Evidence decide what you will apply for then complete the online registration and submit to Crossbow. Conduct a self-assessment using the Portfolio of Evidence (encompassing all points within the 'Self-Assess' columns).

Have your Supervisor/Line Manager, or similar, complete any "Required Skills and Knowledge" lists.

Please Note: - If you feel you do not have sufficient evidence/experience in budgeting for a training program and/or assessment activities, you may be required to complete assignment as set and discuss with your Assessor.

After completing these actions, call or email Crossbow to arrange for an Assessor to visit your workplace to verify your evidence.

Please Note: If your evidence is not sufficient you may be required to do one, or more, of the following:

• provide more evidence at a later time
• complete workplace assignments set by Crossbow
• complete a whole unit of training, either through face-to-face training or through flexible or self-paced training.

This will be discussed with you at the time of the assessment.

You must also remember that the evidence you provide for the Diploma must demonstrate your experience covers a range of different contexts, goes over a period of time and is shown on multiple occasions (not one-off occasions).
