Guidance on assessment
The qualification is assessed using an externally set, internally assessed learner pack containing open response questions and practical observation / evidence recording document.

The practical observation and evidence recording document is used to record judgements against the practical assessment criteria contained within Unit 7 which will be completed by an Assessor, under supervision in the role of an events steward at a minimum of one live event.

To complete a Highfield Level 2 Certificate in Event Security Operations (RQF) you will need to perform duties in an Event Steward capacity at a minimum of one live event – The Unit 7 Assessment will only be undertaken when a learner has successfully met all the learning goals in the assessment criteria contained within the Learner Assessment Pack.

Access to a live event is the responsibility of the learner to facilitate the completion of the Unit 7 Assessment by the Assessor.

Where an assessor is required to travel to undertake the Unit 7 Assessment, any additional costs (travel, fuel expense, parking, accommodation) will be the responsibility of the learner and/or company to whom the training is being delivered.
