New Advice & Guidance NVQ 4-employer
 
Category: Advice & Guidance
Duration: No time scale, though most programmes are completed in under 12 months. Individual units may be accumulated up to 3 years for the full NVQ.
Aimed at:
The NVQ Level 4 Advice and Guidance award is for the fully developed and experienced practitioner, particularly in guidance and in formal advocacy. They might also have some management and training responsibilities. In addition, they could be creators of information, advice and guidance either being disseminated themselves as practitioners or through their organisations in the form of publications. They have a more dynamic relationship with other organisations.
This award is designed to improve organisational performance through its strong focus on the individual's job role. Development of the individual comes from highly practical programmes that can generate significant payback for the sponsor from cost savings and quality improvements. Taking advantage of flexible programme design can reduce time away from the workplace. We can combine resource-based learning with taught workshops. Existing internal short training sessions may also be suitable for incorporating into the programme structure.
