AboutthisUnit
This unit will provide you with an introduction to angling. You will learn about the different branches of angling and regulations, including the need for a Rod License and fishing permits. You will also assemble and use angling equipment, and will use appropriate bait.

Usingthisassessment pack

The tasksin this packwill support your learning and so it is expected that you will complete all of them and have them marked. The completed, marked exercises are the assessments on which your achievement of the AIM Awards E3 Angling Skills is based.

Tracking your evidence

During your course, your tutor/assessor will ask you to carry out work either in the classroom, or in your own time, which you’ll keep as evidence of your learning.

The work you produce (evidence) will be assessed by your tutor/assessor to make sure you’ve covered everything in sufficient detail. Your evidence could be made up of a combination of:

•written work or class notes

•products or samples of practical work

•case studies

•learning logs

•video or audio recordings

•other appropriate formats suggested by your tutor/assessor

When all of your evidence is gathered together in a file or folder, this becomes your portfolio.

Your centre and assessor may have systems that they use to plan and monitor your assessment. These may be computer-based (e.g. using ‘e-portfolio’ software) or paper-based (using forms or checklists). These systems are designed to show how each piece of evidence meets which learning outcomes and assessment criteria. Reasonable adjustments can be made; for example, if you have writing difficulties, your responses can be captured orally and evidenced by audio recording.

You will be working to achieve the following learning outcomes:
