Announcing a Series of e-Assessment Seminars Around the UK
 
The e-Assessment Association in collaboration with CCEA in Northern Ireland, ABC Awards in Nottingham and SQA in Scotland is to hold a series of seminars around the UK.  The next meeting is as follows:

20 May - Glasgow

The embryonic e-Assessment Association has three major goals for its community: to provide professional support for workers in this field of expertise, to work collaboratively with members and national organisations to create and communicate the positive contribution that technologies can make to assessment methods and produce a statement of good practice for commercial vendors of e-assessment.

The series of seminars will highlight the benefits of e-assessment in three broad areas of education: Primary/Secondary, Secondary/Tertiary HE and Tertiary FE/Workplace. The speakers will describe the main features in the relevant sector led by a well-known exponent in the field and gather informed views through discussion under the guidance of experienced facilitators.

Our Mission
To promote and support excellence in the post-14 learning and skills sector through partnership, professional development and regional representation services.
