An Introduction to Locally Devised Assessment (Autumn 2026)

Please note: This is a repeat of the online sessions which we offered in previous years.

The focus of this online event, which is part 1 of a suite of 5 assessment events, is on supporting the assessor working in a further education and training environment, where the assessor is required to develop local assessment instruments and related documentation.
The following topics will be covered:
• An overview of the assessment process, including key milestones
• Ensuring an understanding of the standard associated with levels 1 – 6 of the National Framework of Qualifications (NFQ)
• The role of the assessor in the assessment process

The target audience for this event is: those assessing learners for the first time, using locally devised assessment instruments.

Facilitation: This event will be facilitated by Mary Sheehy, FESS.
