Present Dubbo, Karabah and Southern Cross DE.

Points talked about

Keeping evidence. Not bookwork (title pages) only information related specifically to Competency task. 3 pieces of evidence e.g. Photos, written assessment 3rd party assessment (workplace).

Tasks must be holistic a number of competencies included in one task.

Approximately 6 assessment tasks for the 2 years. 3 each year.

All districts had assessment s to follow; staff believed they were aimed at higher levels than Certificate 2 needed. This creates problems for students wanting to sit HSC. Need the higher order information. HSC targeted at Cert 4.

Janet believes Dubbo is going much more rigid-follow regional Assessments. You can add to them but you cannot take away. To sign off students you need more evidence but there are not enough face to face opportunities.

Assessing in “Event” type situations great concern.

BOS changes -No part B of syllabus. Training documents only.

Concern raised re Preliminary having to be signed off, goes against the VET pathway that they can continue to accumulate competencies.

Students are either” Competent “or “More evidence required”.

2014 New changes.
