Add Evidence Types / Requirements

1.   The ‘Add Evidence Type’ button enables you to specify the Evidence and allocate a place for the Evidence to go within the Candidate’s portfolio.

2. You will see that the Plan Created date and time has been carried forward to the Evidence.

3. You can select the type of Evidence you wish to add from the drop-down list entitled "Evidence Type" on the right hand side.

4. On the left you now need to enter "Evidence Description/Title"

5. Now set target dates accordingly. The system will automatically take the target date from the Plan, however you can select an earlier or later date if required.

Optional:
Display Colour: Choose the colour the evidence line will appear as in the evidence tables.
Candidate must provide References: Tick if you require the candidate to complete a authenticity statement when submitting the evidence.
On Activation, make Assessor the Holder: Tick if you do not want the candidate to be able to prepare this evidence.
Allow Evidence to be Linked: Remove the tick if you would like to prevent users from being able to change links to the evidence once it moves from draft.

Relevant to Unit(s): Tick if you require users to select which units their evidence is relevant to, and the unit codes will then be appended to the evidence dscription.
Allow 'Finish Assessment - Accept not required': Remove the tick if the candidate must accept feedback for this evidence, and cannot be overridden by the assessor.
Additional Guidance Notes : Enter additional guidance, planning, resource hashtags etc here. This will be displayed on the evidence pages for the candidate to refer to when preparing their evidence.
Mandatory evidence (only appears for online test and online workbooks):  If ticked, the evidence holder will be redirected to the evidence on next login, and the redirect will persist until the evidence is presented, or the tick for mandatory is removed on the edit evidence properties page.

6. You can also view the Plan within this page by clicking on ‘Show Plan’ and you can also view the course standards by clicking on ‘Show Standards’.

7. Click ‘Save’ once you are happy with the Evidence Type you are adding.

8. The system has now generated an Evidence number for this item of Evidence.

9. At this stage the Evidence is "Draft". Whilst the Evidence status is "Draft" you can make changes and modify it e.g. changing the date.

10. Having clicked ‘Save’ you are now seeing the "Viewing Evidence" page. This is the page where the Evidence will be prepared. It is empty at
the moment.

11. At this stage you can also link the Evidence using the 'Link Evidence' button. This enables you to show the Candidate the Course standards they
will be assessed against, when for example an Observation takes place. Simply tick the items of criteria accordingly. You can link to as many Units
as you wish, by clicking on the appropriate Unit tab at the top, enabling cross-referencing to take place.

12. When linking at the planning stage the links are not permanent. These can be changed by you or the Candidate at any time until the Assessment
takes place. Once you are happy with the links click ‘Finish’. This will then return you to the "Viewing Evidence" page.

13. The coverage you have just selected is shown clearly underneath where the Evidence will appear.

14. Once you are happy with the linking you can click ‘Go to Plan’ to return to the Assessment Plan.

15. You can then add additional Evidence Types if necessary by clicking on ‘Add Evidence Type’ and repeating this process.
