The 2014 - 7th e-Vocational Conference

This the 7th e-vocational conference from Assessment Tomorrow comes at a key moment in the development of e-assessment in the wider vocational context. 

The response to the FELTAG report is clear –

    ……”We will work with Ofqual, Awarding organisations, employers and learners to identify sectors for which online assessment will be particularly suitable, and develop a programme to increase its use…….. It is quite plausible that in certain sectors we may be able to set targets higher than the 50% FELTAG has suggested”

    Government Response to the recommendations from the Further Education Learning Technology Action Group (FELTAG),  BIS, June 2014

The conference speakers developed their thinking on the Government’s response to FELTAG, looking at the key issues that will need to be addressed if the aspirations of the FELTAG report are to be realised.

As in previous conferences, an expert set of speakers discussed the issues and looked at their experiences delivering technology enabled qualifications in the vocational, technical and professional sphere. They examined the issues and attempted to predict how technology will develop over the next few years and, as importantly, its impact on assessment and on the management of the assessment process. This conference was an ideal opportunity to begin sharing the issues.
