RE-SIT ASSESSMENT: LEVEL 3 AWARD IN ENERGY AWARENESS 6281-01
LEVEL 3 AWARD IN ENERGY AWARENESS 6281-01
NEED TO RE-SIT YOUR ASSESSMENT?
The following details are for National Energy Action learners only, if you originally booked your course and assessment through a different provider, please contact them direct to arrange your re-sit. Details should be outlined on your original course and assessment booking.
The Energy Awareness 6281-01 assessment is divided into two parts, as outlined below. Learners will only need to re-sit the part(s) they previously failed.
PART 1: SIMULATION BASED ASSESSMENT
The simulation is a 30-minute controlled assessment that must be observed by an assessor on a set date. Your training provider will provide details of dates.
The assessor will use role play to create a realistic scenario that allows the candidate to demonstrate their skills.
The assessment will be delivered online via Zoom.
Environment and equipment:
- Learners must have access to a quiet, private space.
- A laptop or desktop computer with a separate mouse and a stable internet connection is required.
Joining the assessment:
- Learners will receive an email containing a Zoom link.
- This link will connect them to a live session with an assessor who will guide them through the simulation.
During the assessment
The simulation is made up of three tasks, each designed to take approximately 10 minutes.
Through these tasks, learners will be asked to demonstrate the following:
- Demonstrate problem-solving abilities using an electricity bill
- Explain how to correctly read a dial meter
- Demonstrate how to set a mechanical programmer and explaining to the assessor the various functions of the programmer.
- Demonstrate how to set a digital programmable room thermostat.
What will I need to re-sit?
Learners are only required to re-sit the task(s) they did not successfully pass. Your original assessor provide feedback to confirm which task(s) need to be completed.
To ensure all candidates are assessed fairly and consistently, each re-sit task is allocated the same amount of time as in the original assessment, which is 10 minutes per task.
Your re-sit duration will therefore be:
- 10 minutes for one task
- 20 minutes for two tasks
- 30 minutes for all three tasks
Please note that, when booking a re-sit, only 30-minute appointment slots are available. However, you will only be required to complete the task(s) identified by your assessor and will be allocated the appropriate assessment time based on the number of tasks being re-sat.
This approach ensures that all candidates are assessed under equivalent conditions and that the assessment process remains fair and consistent.
