NQ Verification 2024-25 - round 2
National Qualifications verification selections for round 2 will be available on SQA Connect from Friday 7 March.
If you’ve been selected for a subject and/or selection that you no longer present in, please complete the Not Presenting form included in the selection and send it to nqverification@sqa.org.uk. Please also use this address if you have any questions regarding verification. We’ll then review your selections and make any necessary amendments.
Round 2 verification outcomes
We’ll issue all verification outcome records and reports, including visiting verification, for round 2 activity through ‘QA Secure Services’ on SQA Connect throughout the round and by no later than Friday 6 June.
Generating the sample
We'll provide details of how to construct the sample of evidence with the selections.
We’ll request that centres provide evidence from specific candidates rather than the centre selecting the sample. If this is the case, we’ll provide details of this in advance.
Please pay particular attention to the verification sample information and evidence checklists in the verification submission guidance. These help you ensure that you have provided the correct sample of evidence and appropriate documentation.
You must include either your assessment judgements with the candidate evidence provided for unit verification or the detailed marking for each candidate for IACCA verification. If you don’t provide this, verifiers are unable to reach an informed decision on whether your centre is making reliable assessment judgements in line with national standards, and it can lead to ‘Not Accepted’ outcomes.
Please remember that, whether the IACCA verification activity is by visiting or event, the marks are final and you must submit them for the selected candidates. Following the verification activity, you should also take your feedback into account to arrive at final marks for the rest of the cohort.
