Choosing Assessors – Once you have picked your section idea’s you will need an assessor.

An Assessor must be over the age of 18 and INDEPENDENT. Therefore cannot be a family member. Their role is to check your progress using your evidence and agrees the completion of the section being over seen.

Who can be an Assessor?

An Assessor can be anyone who is interested in helping you to achieve, has some knowledge of the activity you are doing and can be available over the time you’re doing it. They will produce or sign off the relevant Assessor’s report for that section, which is uploaded onto the DofE website – https://www.dofe.org/assessor/
