3 ROLL OUT OF THE COURSE Purpose This generic assessor unit standard is for those who assess people for their achievement of learning outcomes in terms of specified criteria using pre-designed assessment instruments. The outcomes and criteria may be defined in a range of documents including but not limited to unit standards, exit level outcomes, assessment standards, curriculum statements and qualifications. Those who achieve this unit standard will be able to conduct assessments within their fields of expertise. This unit standard will contribute towards the achievement of a variety of qualifications, particularly within the fields of Education Training and Development Practices and Human Resource Development. People credited with this unit standard are able to carry out assessments in a fair, valid, reliable and practicable manner that is free of all bias and discrimination, paying particular attention to the three groups targeted for redress: race, gender and disability. Learning assumed to be in place 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. Facilitation Methodology Learners are required to participate fully in group and individual learning activities throughout the workshop. Learners are also encouraged to identify and express their specific learning needs and to contribute freely from their own experience. During the contact session, the facilitator also focuses on change management and motivational aspects, as we ve identified these issues as key areas of SAQA and implementing the NQF. Assessment During the workshop, participants will be briefed on how to prepare and present a Portfolio of Evidence for assessment. As soon as a candidate assessor is found to be competent, and once Equipt has received endorsement including your official number from the ETDP SETA, we will issue the necessary certificate on NQF level 5, (15 credits). This certificate will be accepted by SAQA and the relevant ETQA should you wish to register as an assessor. Our accreditation number at the ETDP SETA is ETDP10388.
