NVQ Training and Examinations - Levels 1, 2,3
|
|
 |
NVQs and SVQs: NVQs and SVQs are qualification from the City and Guilds awarding body.
These qualifications are completely different from obtaining a BHS exam, which you apply to take on a specific date and on the day you either pass or fail. With NVQs and SVQs you are assessed on a continuous basis whilst at your place of work. A portfolio of work has to be produced which does require assignments in each section. The riding options are similiar to the Stage Exams. There are other optional units such as 'Trekking', 'Preparing the Performance Horse' etc. These are over a year of part time study. |
