Assess your learning
Once you've completed the Skills portion of this module, use our Assessment Guide to see how you can put this learning into practice as part of your everyday volunteering.
This quickly puts things together in a format that a Learning Assessor can read and discuss with you to sign-off the assessment of your new Skills.
