@smf I had sent an email to Nec to find out if we would need to be assessed at workplace for the Level 3 (DCYPW) This is the reply I got: [i'>[i'>Thank you for your enquiry. Because you are overseas we cannot send our tutor to do the final observation in the workplace. You can either nominate a qualified assessor, whom we will vet before you begin the course. An attachment describes their qualifications required. Or there are organisations appearing who can supply an assessor in some regions.[/i'>[/i'> @Glitzi Thanks for sharing this info. I had asked the same question with NEC, was still waiting for their reply. I think it's still vague, who would pay a local assessor, is NEC expecting the assessor to volunteer just for assessing? Will try to ask this to NEC. Even I spoke to EYES in knowledge village. Studying level 2 and level 3 together would take 2 years to complete, plus 3 times the money compared to what I would pay NEC for Level 3 DCYPW I've also spoken to someone from city and guilds (www.qualitymatters4children.com), apparently its same as cache but just another entity. Their cost is similar to NEC. With once a week workshop. Only advantage NEC has is that you can study at your pace and finish your course faster or slower.

Dear all, I'm planning to start a new career into preschool teaching, and I'm planning to take up a Cache level 3 diploma from www.nec.ac.uk. As I understand Cache level 3 diploma is the basic qualification to enter teaching in preschools/ nurseries. If anyone has taken similar course from NEC, I would like to hear your review about it. Thanks and regards.
