Locally Devised Assessment

This online course focuses on the assessment of learners who are following further education and training, or FET, programmes that lead to QQI certification at NFQ Levels 1 to 6.

Specifically, the focus for the resource is on summative assessment in a locally devised assessment process. This means that the detail in the resource is targeted towards assessors who are tasked with devising their own assessment briefs, examination papers and related documentation, so that they can assess learners for certification purposes. 


Assessment Support & Academic Integrity for FET learners

This course has been developed for FET learners based on an existing course developed by MTU for higher education learners. The content has been significantly changed to reflect the needs of the FET learner and the resources available to them.

The course includes 10 modules and on completion of all 10, the learner will be able to download a certificate
