Assessor Support - Assessment & Moderation

Are you interested in improving your assessment practice?

Are you new to standards-based learning and NCEA?

Are you looking for opportunities to network and build learning communities?

NZQA offers a variety of online learning options and workshops to help assessors with the assessment of internally-assessed standards.

Assessors may access online courses at any time and at no cost. The options available include a new series of online ‘bite-sized modules’, short courses and a range of longer Best Practice Workshops.

They focus on a variety of subjects and standards, including some generic modules relevant to all subjects. This content is accessible for free via the Education Sector Logon. Assessors can self-enrol and access the materials at any time that suits them.

NZQA also continues to provide face-to-face Best Practice Workshops and targeted support on request.
