For all portfolio users.
The Time Taken fields let you record how long you spend on activities in a portfolio, for example to track guided learning hours (GLH).
Where you can record time
- Adding a contact log
- Creating or reviewing assessment plans
- Preparing evidence
- Recording evidence sources
- Giving feedback to candidates
- IQA feedback to the assessor
- Second-line assessment
- Second-line verification
Recording time
- Enter the hours and/or minutes in the Time Takenfields.

- Click Save.
The time is added to the Time Spent So Far counter. This counter only shows the time recorded on that page of the portfolio.
Reducing time: enter a minus figure, or change an existing entry. For example, if 3 hours 45 minutes has been recorded and you need to take off 45 minutes, enter -45 in the minutes box and click Save.
Seeing the total for a portfolio
LSAs and QACs can see the total time for the whole portfolio in the Candidate Activity Times report, on the Reports tab.
