Overview

Working in conjunction with other specialist organisations, the Institute aims to offer qualifications and professional development to both existing and prospective educational assessors.

We have developed a matrix, or framework of competencies, known as the Professional Framework,  based on the current activities performed by educational assessors. This Professional Framework will help to inform our thinking of the types of courses and support that educational assessors require in order to fulfil their role more effectively.
