Dont give up

I understand its very frustrating but as long as you are following the standards when you are writing up your cases and covering the range of scope you will be fine. If your assessor is not sure, submit the portfolio to your IV and they will check it for you.
The worst that could happen is she can send it back saying you need to cover this or that but usually fine.

As long as when she is marking your logs she ensures each pc, which is connected to the scope is covered then you should be fine.

Just go through your tracking sheets and make sure all the scope boxes are ticked.
To be extra sure you can check how many times the pc should have been covered (number of items in scope) and checked that the column is ticked that many times.

Again, hope that makes sense, it did in my head

I understand that. But my assessor is struggling to understand that

The original question was is there an easy and quick way to ensure that I have covered it all. As going crossed eyed looking at the tracking sheets

The bits in bold are to show which scope correspond to that PC. If you look at the bold word in the pc, it will be repeated in one or two of the scopes.
To complete the portfolio you have to cover that pc for each of the scope it is linked to.

Hope that makes sense, cant think of an example off the top of my head

Soory, it's hard to explain the problem I'm having, My assessor DOES track my work but is unsure about the bits in bold! (I hope this is making some sort of sense).

I have been talking to my VNAC and my IV and things haven't really improved. Have mostly done the first year blind and am worried about doing the second blind.

how do you track what you have done then? if your assesor doesnt know about them then you should speak to your VNAC, get them to explain them to your assesor, but surely they should have covered them in their training?

My assessor can't explain the tracking sheets because he has no clue at what to do! And I have less than three weeks to complete it all and have just had an arguement with my fella about it all.

I'm ready to give it all up now.

Sorry to rant

Your assesor should be able to explain the tracking forms and should be filling them in for you as they mark caselogs, our VNAC requires completed tracking forms in with the portfolio when they IV it and sign it off

Use your tacking sheets to make sure they are all ticked off, this way you can easily identify if you have missed anything.
