PROGRAMME OVERVIEW
PURPOSE
At the end of this training session you will be able to conduct outcomes-based assessments.
LEARNING ASSUMPTIONS
There is open access to this unit standard. The credit calculation is based on the assumption that
those starting to learn towards this unit standard have no previous assessment experience. It is
assumed, though, that the candidate-assessors have evaluative expertise within the area of learning
in which they intend to assess (see Definition of Terms for a definition of “evaluative expertise”).
HOW YOU WILL LEARN
The programme methodology includes facilitator presentations, readings, individual activities, group
discussions, and skill application exercises.
HOW YOU WILL BE ASSESSED
This programme has been aligned to registered unit standards. You will be assessed against the
outcomes of the unit standards by completing a knowledge assignment that covers the essential
embedded knowledge stipulated in the unit standards. When you are assessed as competent
against the unit standards, you will receive a certificate of competence and be awarded 15 credits
towards a National Qualification.
