Webinar: The 123 of Creating Observation Checklists

Recorded on 23/10/2018 as part of National VET PD Week, this webinar broke the process down of developing quality observation checklists for evidence gathering.

Topic overview:

This webinar will broke the process down of developing quality observation checklists for evidence gathering.

Units of competency describe both the skills and knowledge (amongst other aspects) that students must demonstrate in order to be deemed competent.

Evidence of these judgments needs to be retained for a period of time, but how do we keep evidence of a student's performance of skills for the cake they baked months ago? One solution is to ensure the RTO uses comprehensive observation checklists to keep a record of the performance of skills. This webinar will break the process down of developing quality observation checklists for evidence gathering.
