How you’d get it

How you’d get this certificate

  1. Zavmo teaches you. You learn the units one-to-one with an AI tutor, on your own work.
  2. You register with an approved centre. That is a college, training provider or employer SFJ Awards has approved to offer this qualification. Zavmo is not an approved centre, so you register with them, not with us.
  3. The centre assesses, and SFJ Awards awards. A qualified assessor at the centre judges your evidence, and the certificate comes from SFJ Awards.

More on studying for a qualification

01What it is

This qualification is aimed at individuals who work or intend to work in fire safety, providing them with formal recognition of their competence to work as a regulatory fire safety auditor for simple premises.

These are the units SFJ 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 SFJ Awards. It does the teaching and the mapping. SFJ Awards 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 SFJ 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.

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.

  • Draft the real one Create

    You do “Identify and report hazards and risks associated with fire in simple premises” 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.
