Hi People
Sorry i had to submit this post just to clear up some things.
Firstly so you know where i am coming from, I am an NVQ Assessor and Internal Verifier with my own company assessing NVQs.
Right here we go;
You can never be fully exempt from the 6129 you can do a shorten version of providing you have evidence that can be proved if neccessary of 5 years work experience even then you will still have to sit the 10 knowledge paper based exams (paper based at the moment soon to be online exams) but not the GOLA end exam.
You will also need to complete the major practical assessments but not the bathroom assessment as you can do that on site in the 6089 and track it across. As for the length the time you have to complete your 6089 you have 5 years from date of registration to complete it.
Hope this helps you with your decisions
