A Guide for consistency across issuing bodies for evaluation of reports
for Assessment Practising Certificate renewal applications
From January 2020 this new structure
with its accompanying marking guide will be used for the review of submitted reports.
The
APC renewal process offers an opportunity both for individual professional
development through feedback on assessment reports and for issuing bodies to
support the overall aim of the review to underpin and improve assessment
practice standards. These criteria should be used by assessors, by training providers and also
apply where a report may be required in the initial application for an
Assessment Practising Certificate.
SASC has
looked at simplifying the approach to review of assessment practice and feel
that a move to a proforma used by all APC issuing bodies, while supporting one
set of core criteria, will add clarity to the feedback assessors receive. It is
felt that a move away from the current ‘3 levels' to one set of core criteria will
be clearer and promote greater consistency.
These
criteria with their accompanying feedback pro forma will be used by all APC
issuing bodies for all reports received from 1 January 2020.
The
full criteria and marking scheme can be found in the downloads section of this
