The TAQA (Training Assessment Quality Assurance) Suite of Qualifications

These are for staff that are working in, or looking to gain entry to, roles in Assessment and/or Internal Quality Assurance.

The qualifications provide people who carry out assessment and internal quality assurance roles in their organisations with the opportunity to develop and improve their practices, as well as achieving a professional qualification for the role.  They have been developed for those working in accredited learning, non-accredited learning, the National Qualification Framework (NQF) and the Qualifications Credit Framework (QCF).

The qualifications consist of a mix of units - some competence-based and some knowledge-based.  The knowledge only units, which are titled 'Understanding the principles and practices of....' allow anyone who is interested in, or would like to know about, assessment and quality assurance - but who is not necessarily a practitioner - to acquire knowledge and information about the roles.

Those who go on to achieve both the competence and knowledge units will gain the understanding and skills to develop their own working practices and to contribute to the development of assessment/quality assurance systems and procedures within their workplaces.
