[Resits](https://servicehub.tquk.org/knowledge/functional-skills-aqa?hsLang=en#resits) # How do resits work if the learners fail the first time? If learners need to resit their Functional Skills assessments, they can do so at any point for two years after their registration date. There is no minimum duration between assessment attempts, but we advise that learners be given sufficient time to address any areas of development they might have. Components that have already been passed do not need to be retaken, and resits can be booked in the same way the first attempts are: by navigating to the ‘Examinations Panel’ section within the [Verve Management Suite](https://verve.tquk.org/) and selecting the learner and assessment that is due to be completed. To complete the booking, we require: - exam date - exam time - invigilation method - Invigilator name and email (if applicable) - location (if applicable). **Find out more about switching your Functional Skills from AQA to TQUK [here](https://campaigns.tquk.org/tquk-aqa-functional-skills-transition?hsLang=en), or explore our offering in more depth by visiting our dedicated [Functional Skills FAQs section](https://servicehub.tquk.org/knowledge/functional-skills?hsLang=en).** -
