What is acceptable practice in clustering,
and how do we ensure that we have met
all quality requirements when developing
assessment tools? This workshop will
examine the requirements to be met when
clustering Units of competency, using a
clustering guide. The workshop will also
detail how to map assessment tools so
as to ensure quality, completeness and
consistency in assessment processes.
Specifically the workshop will examine the
following:
This session will be about how to perform
moderation and validation processes. This
will involve checking that the assessment
tool can produce sufficient, current,
valid and authentic evidence to enable
reasonable judgements to be made as
to whether the standards defined in the
Training Package units have been met.
During the session we will be conducting
validation of real examples, with actual
evidence to confirm the process. Please
bring assessment tools and corresponding
unit for this activity of Validation.
