e-Assessment: Guide to effective practice

Following on the success of the first conference in 2006, and again working in collaboration with SQA, the conference was warmly received by an appreciative and full audience. The conference examines the practical aspects of implementing e-Assessment including Computer Based Testing and e-Portfolios in education, training and professional development.

Managed by Assessment Tomorrow Ltd., the conference boasted an impressive line-up of authoritative speakers from education and industry. The programme included a key note address from SQA delivered by Karen McCullum, Director of Operations

For those using, or considering using, ICT

• to measure the skills & knowledge of candidates taking formal academic or professional qualifications,
• or taking advantage of the flexibility and effectiveness of the technology to record and assess learning,
• or for continuing professional development of staff, even using it to appraise employees and candidates,

 e-Assessment offers exciting and innovative approaches to otherwise costly or inflexible assessment of learners, students or employees.

We would like to thank BTL, UKT&I, nferNelson and DRS for their support of this event
