Sitting in a pub a couple of days ago my ears picked up a conversation from the next table, where they were discussing CPD. Apparently you can watch the training videos online, so all you need to do is get the apprentice to click next every time it prompts and you can get on with real work. Then when it comes to the exam Andy is pretty switched on so he'll get everybody's logins and do the assessments.

Is that how it's supposed to work?

I am never right but at least I am trying

It's a complete farce and they will reap what they sow.

exams with no form of vigilation or security are worthless,i raised these concerns months ago and again with the new login cards,if some one is gonna write moody tickets why is he gonna balk at handing them his card/login details?why is he gonna be worried about someone filling in his exam details?why is he gonna worry about getting caught doing any of the above when there is almost zero chance of vosa catching him due to lack of staff?the people from the relevant ministries need to get their head out from up their arses and realise that all the outsourcing/restructuring in the world aint gonna replace boots on the ground.people cost money simple as,either accept that and pay or give up totally and admit that's what you've done.
