How you’d get this certificate

- You register with an approved centre. That is a college, training provider or employer SFEDI Enterprises Ltd. T/A SFEDI Awards has approved to offer this qualification. Zavmo is not an approved centre, so you register with them, not with us.

It is suitable for those considering self-employment or seeking to improve their employability skills. Units cover topics such as selling, business risks, and social media for business.
These are the units SFEDI Enterprises Ltd. T/A SFEDI Awards 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, and work done here is recognised as prior learning under the agreements we hold.
Zavmo is not an awarding body, is not an approved centre, and is not affiliated with SFEDI Enterprises Ltd. T/A SFEDI Awards. It does the teaching and the mapping. SFEDI Enterprises Ltd. T/A SFEDI Awards sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.

See the whole journeyThe credits, and who awards them
Level 1 credits are regulated, and they are awarded by SFEDI Enterprises Ltd. T/A SFEDI Awards 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.
What you would be collecting
AssertivenessBeing Safe and Healthy at WorkCivility and EtiquetteCommunication SkillsCompleting Voluntary WorkCoping with ChangeCreative ThinkingDemocracy and Citizenship
Each one is a real unit registered against this qualification.
How you’d practise it
You don’t watch this. You do it.
You are not assessed on remembering this. You are assessed on applying it, analysing it, evaluating it and producing something. So that is what the practice is: projects, role play and your own live cases, with a tutor in the room.
- Rehearse the conversation Apply
“Safeguarding” is a conversation before it is a document. You have it with Zavmo playing the other person, badly at first, then again once you know what you actually want to say.
- Pitch it Evaluate
“Selling lawfully and ethically” gets practised as a pitch. You make the case out loud, Zavmo asks the question the room would ask, and you make it again.
- Bring your own plan Create
For “Understand the Importance of Business Planning” you bring the plan you are actually working on, not a case study. Zavmo pulls on the assumptions in it until the weak one shows.
- Draft the real one Create
You do “Identifying Processes and Procedures at Work” on a real document of your own. Zavmo works on the draft you have to send anyway, so the coursework and the job are the same piece of work.
How you would learn this
One to one, on the work you already do
A tutor sets the task against your own job and marks the reasoning, at your pace. There is no cohort to fall behind.
A lesson from Assertiveness, one of this qualification's own units.
Applied to your work in any of these jobs
This unit fosters understanding and improvement of assertiveness in various contexts, enhancing personal and professional interactions.
