Focus Week: Understanding the Principles of Assessment and the Rules of Evidence

19 March 2018
ONLINE

This webinar is one of five available during Velg Training's dedicated Focus Week - Assessment.  The webinars that form the Focus Week are designed to focus particular attention on how assessment is both developed and administered, ensuring a focal point on the continual improvement of these practices.

About this webinar

Clause 1.8 (b) of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015 requires the RTO to implement an assessment system that ensures that assessment (including recognition of prior learning) is conducted in accordance with the principles of assessment and the rules of evidence. 

This session will look at what this means in practice!

Key topics covered within webinar

  • What does each of the principles of assessment mean?
  • How are the principles of assessment built into assessment tools and how are they evidenced?
  • How are the principles of assessment applied to other parts of the assessment system such as review and validation of assessment materials?
  • What does each of the rules of evidence mean?
  • How do you ensure that your assessment tools will produce evidence that satisfies the rules?
  • How do the principles of assessment and the rules of evidence apply to a "recognition of prior learning (RPL)" assessment process?
