A guide to the competency standards for assessment

This guide is intended for persons who are implementing the competency standards for assessment in any type of industry or size of organisation. It was designed to set down a common framework for interpreting assessment standards and implementing good practice in recognising the competencies detailed in those standards. It may be used as a tool for checking the performance of an assessment system overall, the individual assessor, or managers responsible for the operation of the system. Thus this guide can contribute to a quality assurance approach in any industry or enterprise responsible for an assessment system and in a registered training organisation responsible for issuing qualifications against the standards. A key finding of the report ‘Who is using the competency standards for assessment?’ (TD/TNC 47.21) was that a demand existed for support in interpreting and implementing assessment. This guide is a response to that demand. This was an ANTA funded, national project. Show less

The vocational education and training (VET) sector is currently working towards supporting and implementing a national training framework, which promotes an industry-driven approach to training, and increased responsiveness by training organisations. This framework emphasises training packages which incorporate industry competency standards. Flexible delivery of training initiatives underpins the development of these packages. This resource has been developed in the context of flexibly delivered staff development, and looks at many examples of professional/staff development to help change attitudes or practices. Eight profiles of successful staff development initiatives have been compiled and analysed in some detail in relation to positive outcomes and barriers to implementation, as well as eighteen snapshots of good practice.
