Internal Verification sampling strategy
EVs expect to see a sampling strategy that demonstrate that sampling rates are increased at times when risks are higher. These include:
New assessor, or assessor new to the centre
Start of a new qualification
Start of a qualification with a revised specification
At these times, sample rates may be as high as 100%, reducing to around 20% over time.
Your sampling strategy should clearly indicate:
Sample rate for each assessor
Sample rate within each course (what percentage of learners in each cohort are sampled)
Sample rate across courses (what percentage of courses are sampled)
The type of feedback provided to assessors, and how this is recorded at the centre
The circumstances under which sample rates may be changed, ie. when a sample rate may be reduced
Note: a centre may have one or more sampling strategies, depending on the how many courses it runs and how it wants to present the strategy. One sampling strategy may apply to more
than one course.
