Our approach Our main focus will be to develop a dedicated global thought
leadership environment specifically on assessment in a vocational context, the
science, art and craft of assessment in vocational education - vocational
pedagogy. We want to push the boundaries of Vocational Education and Training
(VET) and deliver a global approach to vocational pedagogy, which we believe is
under-researched and under-theorised. The future is in a blended, agile
environment that truly focuses on the needs and aspirations of all students in
vocational education and assessment, our research will have a predominant focus
on the UK, EU, America and Australia. As part of our lifelong learning journey
for all, we offer courses that include: Our online Level 3 Certificate in
Assessing Vocational Achievement (CAVA) course is awarded by ITC First, an
Ofqual regulated Awarding Organisation. Our unique Leadership Development
Programme studied across five modules, applies generic leadership principles
directly to the assessment environment. Upon completion of this course, you will
be confident in leading an assessment team. For those interested in entering the
world of assessment, or those working in an administrative or support role, we
also offer our Level 3 Award in the Principles and Practices of Assessment. You
may choose to 'top up' this qualification down the line by upgrading it to a
CAVA.
