This course is suitable for any recognised Agored Cymru centre staff who are new to assessing Agored Cymru units/qualifications or as a refresher for Agored Cymru assessors who have not delivered courses recently.
Newly recognised centres are entitled to 4 free training places which can be used for the Introduction to Assessment and Introduction to IQA sessions, to be used in the first 12 months after becoming a recognised centre.
Additional places can be booked subject to availability at a cost of £50 per person.
Assessors do not currently need to have a formal assessment qualification to assess Agored Cymru units/qualifications, unless stated in the qualification guide or unit specification. However, Agored Cymru strong recommends that assessors work towards formal accreditation. (e.g. Agored Cymru Level 3 Award in Understanding the Principles and Practices of Assessment).
