Validation and Moderation

We will be addressing the important benchmarking processes of moderation and validation, using the following definitions. Moderation is the process of bringing scores and standards into alignment. It is a process that ensures the same standards are applied to all assessment results within the same Unit(s) of Competency. Validation is a quality review process.  It involves checking that the assessment tool produced sufficient, current, valid and authentic evidence to enable reasonable judgments to be made as to whether the standards defined in the Accredited Course or Training Package units had been met. Specifically the workshop will examine the following:

• Validation and moderation methods
• Outcomes of validation
• How to conduct a validation or moderation meeting
