Additional information:
The witness must be an individual, not related to the learner, who is in a position to make valid comment about their performance.
It is not acceptable for candidates to produce written witness statements for witnesses to sign.
Witness statements:• must describe what they witnessed the candidate doing • can be written or oral accounts of a candidate’s performance• do not have to be written by the witness, they may be recorded by the assessor after
discussion with the witness and confirmed as accurate by the witness• should not contain just a list of the skills • should not be used to evidence the achievement of a whole unit
The assessor will then judge whether the evidence presented meets the standards required by the assessment criteria for the unit. Often it will be necessary for assessors to make contact with witnesses to ensure:a) the witness statement is authentic b) the assessor’s interpretation of the witness statement is accurate

Front Cover ‘ROQ’ very appealing – the front cover and DPS really stand out and the images are top quality.
Above the line marketing – excellent Billboard!
EBI
Finish off your Production Plan in more detail – add in your logo.

You need a magazine Flat Plan for BOTH ideas.
