Candidate Guidance

GUIDANCE FOR CANDIDATES

If you have been registered to take one or more IMI Awards qualifications you will be known as a ‘candidate’ and given a registration number. This means that when you complete your qualification successfully, IMI Awards will be the organisation that issues you with your certificate having checked that the centre (e.g. college or training provider) has carried out all of your assessments correctly.

Before you start on your programme there are some things you must know. These are:

• how you are registered
• how you will be assessed
• how you will get your certificate
• how to contact IMI Awards
• what to do if you need to complain or appeal against an assessment decision.
• how much you qualification costs.

Your centre should tell you all these things as part of your induction which should also include all the details of the qualification(s) you are taking, plus very important topics such as health and safety, equal opportunities and the centre’s expectations of you while you attend there.
