Non Examined assessments (NEAs)
Non-examined assessments take place throughout the year. Candidates should be aware of when these will take place. Candidates should also know the specifics of the "control" that relate to the assessment, such as what resources they can use, who they can work with, how long to spend on the task; what feedback they are allowed; if they expected to review and resubmit; deadlines.
