About the course
This workshop raises Assessors from any field to the next level of assessment – Moderation. It is designed for people who conduct internal or external moderation of outcomes-based assessments.
The content of the workshop extends naturally from the Gray Training Assessor course, providing the organisation with a highly skilled Assessor/Moderator who can design assessment systems, assessment strategies, assessment guides - and who can assess and moderate.
You’ll exit this valuable training programme with the skills to:
•
Design an assessment system for your organisation
•
Design procedures for assessment and moderation
•
Design assessment strategies and assessment guides
•
Support your organisation’s assessors in their assessments
•

Methodology
This is a natural continuation of the Gray Training Assessor course. If you attended the Gray Training Assessor course you will receive a refresher pack before you come on course. If you gained unit standard 115753 from other sources you will receive a contextualisation pack two weeks before the starting date. In both cases, you will need to work through this material and complete a preliminary exercise before attending the workshop.
During the workshop, you’ll work through a series of experiential exercises
and will cover all the outcomes for this important unit standard within one
day. The hands-on activities will build your skill and understanding of the
moderation process so that you can transfer this into your organisation immediately
you return. You’ll master the knowledge in small learning teams and will
practise the different analytic methods. Your work is constantly assessed so
that you learn constructively, building a platform of confidence to take back
to the workplace. By the time you leave, you will have designs for:
•
An assessment system for your organisation
•
A generic assessment strategy
•
A generic assessment guide for a unit standard.
