Key aspects of a Skills Recognition Audit

There are several key aspects of the Skills Recognition Audit which make it a unique opportunity for tourism professionals.   This learning pathway:-

•  helps to eliminate or reduce the need for participants to train in knowledge and skills they already have

•  enables participants to know what skills and knowledge they have developed and acquired through their working career and life experience

•  offers an individual approach, whereby assessment and any necessary training are tailored to accommodate each participants specific learning, experience and current competencies

•  is self driven and self paced, ensuring that participants are consulted and involved at all stages. It gives participants ownership of the process, including doing a self assessment of their learning, experience and current competencies and then gathering sufficient evidence to satisfy selected competency standards.

•  ensures that participants have a close relationship with a supportive assessor, who takes the approach that they are working together to achieve the same end

•  has been designed and structured online to minimise time and cost to applicants.
