The Assessor Training Level 3 Advanced Diploma provides in-depth training on the role of an assessor and the critical skills needed to assess learners effectively. Beginning with an introduction to assessment principles, the course delves into the various methods of assessment and explores the responsibilities of an assessor. This includes understanding different assessment techniques, such as direct observation, tests, and assignments, ensuring that learners can choose the most appropriate method for each situation.

The course covers practical aspects of conducting assessments, including planning and preparation. Learners will develop the skills to create comprehensive assessment plans that outline how evaluations will be carried out, what criteria will be used, and how to maintain fairness and transparency throughout the process. Assessing performance is another key focus, where students learn to evaluate learner progress accurately and provide constructive feedback.

In addition to assessing performance, the course provides a thorough understanding of quality assurance processes in assessment. This ensures that all assessments meet industry standards and that the assessment process is both valid and reliable. The course also emphasizes the importance of assessment planning and portfolio building, teaching learners how to construct and maintain effective portfolios that document the assessment journey.

To ensure that learners stay up-to-date in the evolving field of assessment, the course covers the importance of continuous professional development (CPD). It guides learners on how to manage their own development, ensuring they remain effective and compliant in their roles as assessors.
