    BB you could be through your A1 awards in about 3 weeks flat.......I would stick an application in but mention in your letter the understanding you have of NVQ assessment and planning, I could help you if you need any as I am an assessor and IV.

    You could say that you are willing to work towards the award, its worth a shot.

    I've tried to get the A1 award but there is a drought of Customer Service NVQ candidates where we are - we mostly do Health and Social Care and the A1 needs me to be an assessor to 2 candidates. It also needs the person to be a internal verifier.

    It's just expression of interest and the manager sits about 4 feet away from me. He's said himself he would try to get me on the A1, but we've only ever run it once so it's not easy to get where I work. There is an online distance learning study with a company, but you have to find your own 2 candidates to assess their portfolios.

    Right, really must motivate myself to do something! I think I might try the flylady way and do ten minutes, then sit for half an hour :rotfl:

    Seems fair to me......

    Good idea, when you get up you always end up doing more than ten mins anyway:D.

    aww bless you for thinking of us.

    jas is no better, it's been 10 days this current bout. I spoke to the secretary from the private hospital today. She's been in touch with the local NHS hosp but the woman she needs to speak to is on holiday until Tuesday. Perish the thought that someone else could do stuff in her absense :confused:

    So, we'll have to wait until next week.

    I'm just :mad: today and it isn't helping that I am chasing invoices left right and centre only to be ignored. Fran is having a mare out in the US, he is tour managing as well on this trip and the stupid bint at the label hasn't given him the money he needs yet, so he had to put petrol in the tour bus out of his bank account today just to get to a gig. Can you imagine how much that costs?
