Focus Week: Assessment of Foundation Skills

4 December 2019
ONLINE

Save Flyer Share
This webinar is one of five available during Velg Training's dedicated Focus Week - Foundation Skills.  A dedicated week of learning opportunities (one webinar per day) specifically designed to increase knowledge and skills of VET practitioners in targeted topics.

About this webinar

Assessment of Foundation Skills
When it comes to the assessment of foundation skills, many trainers/assessors think this belongs in the realm of those who teach from the FSK Training Package and does not really apply to them. This webinar will demonstrate how foundation skills are pivotal to all we do as trainers/assessors and how we can ensure that those underpinning foundation skills are adequately assessed through tasks that are industry relevant, whatever training package we are teaching from.

Key topics covered within webinar

  • An overview of foundation skills and where can I find them
  • Unpacking foundation skills and repacking them into your assessment tasks
  • Designing tasks that enable learners to demonstrate their foundation skills with an industry specific focus
  • Q & A
