01What it is
These are the units PAA/VQSET registers against this qualification. It is a catalogue, not a syllabus. Which of them you take depends on the combination the qualification requires, and that is set by the awarding body rather than by us. Every unit here is regulated. Zavmo teaches towards them on your own work.
Zavmo is not an awarding body, is not an approved centre, and is not affiliated with PAA/VQSET. It does the teaching and the mapping. PAA/VQSET sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.

04The credits
The credits, and who awards them
Level 3 credits are regulated, and they are awarded by PAA/VQSET rather than by Zavmo. They don’t vanish when a subscription ends or a website closes. They travel to any employer, and Zavmo keeps the map of what you have covered and what is next.
