Roles and Responsibilities In this section we will cover: An introduction to who is involved in the assessment process and system, and their roles and responsibilities. There are many people and stakeholders involved in the assessment process and system. These include candidates, assessors, verifiers, workplace/employers, training providers, Competenz and other ITOs, NZQA and more. Let‟s take a look at the key roles and responsibilities for each of them. Candidate „Candidate‟ is the name given to people who are being assessed. This may include apprentices, other workers (known as trainees), and other learners. Candidates are primarily responsible for: Their own learning and becoming a skilled worker. Attending and completing courses that are part of their training agreement. Completing and collecting evidence. Presenting evidence to the assessor in a logical form. Employers Employers play an important role in the support of the training and assessment process. Their attitude and support around giving adequate time and resources to training and assessing in the workplace sets the mood for its success (or failure). Some of the employers‟ responsibilities include: Ensuring they have access to the right equipment and type of work needed to support the candidate in completing their training and assessment. Making arrangements for the candidate to gain experience on any tasks that the company cannot cover in relation to their training plan. Selecting and having adequately trained workplace assessors. Allowing the assessor time to prepare for, and conduct, assessments when needed. Allowing the candidate reasonable time to collect evidence as they perform their tasks. Supporting assessors in attending regular professional development training e.g. assessment related workshops. Assessor Guide, Ed. 2 Page 21
