The New Assessor: Industry Insider?
Developing the Assessor Role to Improve Job
Outcomes and Employer Engagement
Monday 19 March 2012 - Central London
Employer engagement and job related outcomes are increasingly important for many FE colleges and independent learning providers, particularly in terms of funding and quality indicators. This strongly suggests a more extensive and demanding role for the workplace assessor.
Assessors play a key role in supporting learning and quality assuring outcomes in the workplace. They have extensive links with employers and their staff and often have access to valuable information about the employer and their business. Given their proximity to employers, assessors have significant potential as key players in effective employer engagement. This one-day event will explore the new role for the assessor and cover:
- Key Funding Changes and the Challenges for Providers
- How the Assessor Role can be Developed for Maximum Engagement
- Conditions for Effective Employer Engagement and Job Outcomes
- Employer Related Services Offered by the Assessor
- Incentivising and Motivating the Assessor
- Implications for Organisations and their Support for the New Role
- Developing the NEW ASSESSOR: A Toolkit of Practical Approaches
- Skills and Qualities for the New Assessor Role
- A New Qualification for Assessors?
- Organisational Action Plan
The day will be led by funding and planning specialist, Beej Kaczmarczyk.
Beej will be supported by contributions from - David Gallagher, Director of Work Pays; Darren Guinness, Managing Director of Darren Guinness Associates; Sue Sealy, Associate Consultant, Puzzlebox Potential and Sector Training Associate Consultant, Marek Kaczmarczyk.
