Review your assessment tools

To ensure that your assessment resources and tools are consistent with the requirements of the training qualification and that they are current, sufficient and effective, it is important that they are reviewed by fellow trainers/assessors and if possible trialled before you use them with learners.

Why Review your tools?

Working with others often sheds fresh light that leads to improvements. Inviting feedback from your peers, learners, master crafts people and industry will confirm that the tools are fit for purpose, enable effective collection of quality evidence and that the level of difficulty is appropriate to the qualification level.

The review of the assessment tools can be done in different ways. You can share the tools with fellow trainers/assessors and ask for their feedback. You can also seek industry validation by inviting master crafts people and employers to review and provide feedback.

In some instances, there can be differences of opinion. Keep an open mind and look at them as an opportunity to discuss and resolve any ambiguities or misunderstandings and refine the tools before they are used with learners.

Here is an example of an assessment review checklist / form, which you can use or develop your on based on it.
