SECTOR ADVISOR WBL – Health Screeners
Job Description
Purpose of this role:
The Sector Advisor (SA) will support the verification of the Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Diploma in Health Screeners. We are currently recruiting for 3 specialisms/pathways for this qualification: Newborn Hearing Screener, Diabetic Eye Screener/Grader, and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screener.
Each specialism/pathway is distinct, with you as the SA covering a single specialism/pathway.
As the SA, you will work with the Standards Verifier to recommend whether the skills and knowledge have been assessed to national standards.
As an SA, you must be occupationally competent with recent occupational experience and have evidence of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in the specialism/pathway you have been appointed for.
This role would require remote sampling from the SA.
Key Accountabilities:
Acceptance of a contract to provide services to Pearson as a Sector Advisor for Health Screeners will be regarded as an undertaking to meet the following requirements:
- Familiarise yourself with the specification so that you can refer to the unit content and assessment criteria when carrying out sampling.
- Provide proof of relevant CPD annually for the specialism(s) you are appointed in as an SA.
- Undertake sampling of learner work to ensure that valid and reliable assessment decisions are made, and national standards are met.
- Provide sector-specific support, advice and guidance to the Standards Verifier.
- Produce reports for Pearson and the allocated Standards Verifier on the sampling undertaken (see service-level agreement below).
- Complete the Sector Advisor Report Form (SARF), giving details on whether the assessment decisions are correct according to assessment criteria requirements. The Sector Advisor will then send the report to the Standards Verifier to complete the verification.
- Report back to Pearson and the Standards Verifier following sampling within agreed service-level agreements (5 working days).
- Support centres to understand and implement identified actions through working with the Standards Verifier.
