   Hi folks, I am on my last assignment of year 1 of the foundation degree. The time has flown by. I was wondering if anyone could advise me on the 39 occupational standards. I need to put something about them into the essay. I have looked at the CWDC site but just wondered how they are used in practise. Are they just a training marker or something else. PLease help as I need to get my head round what they are actually used for. many thanks in advance
