Workplace practice means that the performance criteria are interpreted in
accordance with the applications of upholstery in the workplace of the candidate
being assessed. Practice may vary between workplaces because of the potential
variation of production trailerboat installations and the materials to which the
components are attached. For example workplace practice in aluminium may vary to
that used for FRC (fibre reinforced composite) trailer boats.

Please note
Providers must be accredited by the Qualifications Authority, or an inter-institutional body
with delegated authority for quality assurance, before they can report credits from
assessment against unit standards or deliver courses of study leading to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be accredited by the Qualifications Authority before
they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.
Accredited providers and Industry Training Organisations assessing against unit standards
must engage with the moderation system that applies to those standards.
Accreditation requirements and an outline of the moderation system that applies to this
standard are outlined in the Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP). The
AMAP also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations
wishing to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for
tutors and assessors, and special resource requirements.
