Module Learning Objective

assess decision-making and workplace application

1. Regulatory Concept & Core Standards

In this video we will consolidate a skill: assess decision-making and workplace application. Use the case to test what you would do in a similar situation. We will explain the proposed response step by step so that you can understand each choice and recognise when more information would be needed. Training should help people make concrete decisions. KVS section 3(3), where applicable, requires awareness of corruption prevention and official status and oversight of duties. Other training models may be organisational choices. Attendance alone proves neither skill nor compliance.

Satisfaction measures experience, attendance measures participation and a practical exercise measures decisions. They are distinct. Workplace checks can show transfer of learning. Collect proportionately without unjustified profiling.

Apply the following rule: Under section 10, acknowledge receipt within seven days of receipt, subject to express prohibition by the reporter or confidentiality-risk exceptions. Section 11 requires follow-up feedback as soon as possible and within three months of receipt. External channels may use six months in justified cases. An authority lacking competence forwards promptly, no later than the fifth working day. Acknowledgement, follow-up feedback and final-outcome feedback are separate events.

2. Practical Implementation & Procedure

Use an objective-linked case, explain answers and offer retraining. Later check an appropriate sample of actual use. State limits and do not call a short course professional certification. Before moving on, turn this procedure into a sequence you could explain to a colleague. Identify the first check, the action that depends on its outcome and the record that allows the decision to be reconstructed. Follow the sequence on screen and identify the point where an error would change the result.

3. Case Study & Compliance Action

Everyone attended, but substitutes still count deadlines from opening. Practical assessment finds the error and supports targeted correction. Now read the case carefully. Separate established facts from information you would still need to confirm. Do not add motives or events that have not been described. This distinction matters when choosing a response proportionate to the information available.

The exercise is as follows: Does 100 percent attendance prove 100 percent competence? Choose an answer and write one sentence explaining it. During the pause, compare your choice with the criteria we have just considered. Also think about the material you would retain to explain the decision later.

No. Attendance is one item of evidence. Skill and workplace application need suitable separate checks and stated limits.

One mistake to avoid is: equating attendance with full compliance.

Now apply the national rule to a second decision. The platform counts 90 days from opening in every country. Does this suit Estonia?

No. Acknowledgement is generally due within seven days of receipt. Follow-up is due within three months of receipt, or six months for a justified external-channel case. Apply statutory exceptions and distinguish working from calendar days. Three months is not always 90 days and opening does not replace receipt.
