- Assessor Skills Training
This course develops the core capabilities required to plan, conduct and record valid, reliable and fair assessments in the workplace and competency-based learning. Participants learn how to interpret standards and assessment criteria, design assessment plans and instruments, select appropriate methods (observation, questioning, product evidence, professional discussion), and make consistent judgements aligned to quality assurance requirements.
