If your normal work is made up of smaller installations, domestic work, maintenance, additions, alterations or fault finding, we can build your portfolio across more genuine jobs.
The difference is simply that a learner with one broad-range project may cover a lot in a small number of assessments, while a learner doing smaller jobs may need more individual pieces of evidence across more jobs.
You will still need the required observation and site-visit evidence in my assessment process. The Targeted Evidence Route is how we deal with the remaining gaps when your normal work does not naturally give us everything in one or two large projects.
I identify the criteria and range that are still genuinely missing.
I tell you what types of work or evidence to look out for next.
Do not stage work or invent evidence. Capture it when it genuinely happens.
Photos, work products, a short targeted RA and witness support where appropriate.
If it is sufficient and defensible, that gap is reduced or closed and we move to the next target.
Your targets are based on your portfolio gaps. They are not a generic checklist that every learner must complete next.
Look out for a genuine job where you personally install it. Capture useful progress photos and the finished work.
For example heating controls, a wiring centre, timer, contactor or other suitable control equipment where it genuinely forms part of your work.
Look for work where you can genuinely carry out the relevant inspection/testing and retain the associated work product or record.
Capture a naturally occurring fault properly: condition found, diagnosis, corrective action and the evidence that supports what you did.
When a missing cable type or containment system comes up naturally, capture it clearly instead of waiting for a massive project.
A smaller replacement or installation can still provide useful evidence where it genuinely meets a remaining criterion or range item.
Not every reflective account needs to describe a huge project from start to finish. On this route, I may ask you for several shorter, criterion-specific reflective accounts about genuine pieces of work.
Each one should still explain what you personally did, how you did it, why you did it and the outcome. In my evidence model, a reflective account is used to close a legitimate gap and should be supported by genuine corroborating evidence, including witness testimony where required.
I review the new evidence against the portfolio you already have. Some targets may be fully closed; others may still need a second instance, additional range or stronger supporting evidence. I then give you the next useful targets.
