Which term describes collections of evidence maintained by assessment centres?

• A. Submission Dates
• B. Learner Portfolios
• C. Moderation Outcome
• D. Competency Assessment

Answer: (B)

Portfolios are collections of evidence that learners accumulate over time and that assessment centres keep to show what a learner has done and what they can do. They bring together a range of artefacts—like assignments, project work, reflections, and witness statements—that demonstrate progression toward the required outcomes. This makes them a comprehensive basis for assessment and for moderation, because they provide a representative picture of a learner’s abilities. The other terms refer to deadlines for submitting work, the result of the moderation process, or the act of assessing competence, not the assembled set of evidence itself.
