EVIDENCE

Evidence refers to proof that a learner has demonstrated a specific competency — meaning they
can perform a task or apply knowledge, skills, and attitudes to a required standard in a real or
simulated setting.
Evidence is the information or documentation that shows a learner has achieved a competency as
outlined in the occupational standards or curriculum.
Forms of evidence
Type of Evidence Description Examples
Direct Evidence First-hand evidence of a - Live demonstration
learner performing a task - Practical assessment
under observation. - Oral questioning
Indirect Evidence Tangible products or - Completed project
outcomes produced by the - Portfolio of work
learner. - Photographs/videos
Supplementary Evidence Third-party or documented - Supervisor/employer
evidence from external testimonials
sources supporting - Observation reports
competence. - Training certificates

The three types of evidence are complementary. Together they give a balanced picture of the
candidate's level of competency. To ensure that assessment can be kept manageable and cost-
effective, it is necessary to pursue an appropriate mix of the three types of evidence.
RULES OF EVIDENCE
Rule Description
Valid Relates to the unit or units of competency
appropriately; reflects all four dimensions
of competency; provides evidence of the
broad skills included in the Key
Competencies; appropriate to the KNQF
level being assessed.
Authentic Is the candidate’s own work (i.e.,
procedures have been developed to ensure
this).
Consistent Shows competency over a period of time
suggesting sustained performance (i.e.,
not just a ‘one-off’).
Sufficient Provides enough evidence to make a
judgement about the competency of the
individual in relation to all four
dimensions of competency. Covers the
full range of the performance criteria and
meets all the evidence requirements.
Current Recent enough to show that the skills and
knowledge are still in practice and able to
be applied to a current work situation.

Advantages of involving the candidate in the assessment process


 Assessment is a cooperative venture between the assessor and the assessor. This helps to
build candidate confidence.
 The candidate becomes a better operator by gaining a full and accurate picture of his or her
own level of competence.
 Candidates take as much responsibility as possible for gathering and organising evidence;
 Candidates participate in assessing their own performance this way they are able to identify
the next steps in their learning and development.
Principles of Assessment
Assessments should be valid, reliable, fair and flexible.
Assessments should be valid, reliable, fair, and flexible.
Principle Description
Validity Assessment measures what it is intended to measure and aligns with performance
criteria and learning outcomes.
Reliability Assessment yields consistent results across different learners, assessors, and
contexts.
Flexibility Assessment methods are adaptable to various learning needs, delivery modes,
and contexts.
Fairness Assessment provides equal opportunity for all learners without bias and supports
their learning process.

Code of Practice for Assessors


The Code of Practice below is based on the international standards:
 The differing needs and requirements of the person(s) being assessed, the local
enterprise(s) and/ or industry are identified and handled with sensitivity.
 Potential forms of conflict of interest in the assessment process and/ or outcomes are
identified and appropriate referrals are made, if necessary.
 All forms of harassment are avoided throughout the planning, conduct, reviewing and
reporting of the assessment outcomes.
 Assessments are conducted within the boundaries of the assessment system policies and
procedures.
 Formal agreement is obtained from both the candidate(s) and the assessor that the
assessment was carried out in accordance with agreed procedures.
 Assessment tools, systems, and procedures are consistent with equal opportunity
legislation.
 The candidate(s) is informed of all assessment reporting processes prior to the assessment.
 The candidate(s) is informed of all known potential consequences of decisions arising from
an assessment, prior to the assessment.
 Confidentiality is maintained regarding assessment results.
 Results are only released with the written permission of the candidate(s).
 The assessment results are used consistently with the purposes explained to the candidate.
 Self- assessments are periodically conducted to ensure current competencies against the
Assessment and Workplace Training Competency Standards.
 Professional development opportunities are identified and sought.
 Opportunities for networking amongst assessors are created and maintained.
 Opportunities are created for technical assistance in planning, conducting and reviewing
assessment procedures and outcomes.
Assessment methods
An assessment method is a way of collecting evidence that will demonstrate competency.
Below is a table which lists a number of assessment methods.
ASSESSMENT PLANNING IN CBET
THE PROCESS OF COMPETENCY-BASED ASSESSMENT
In order to carry out effective competency-based assessment, the following phases are critical:
 Planning for competency-based assessment
 Conducting competency-based assessment
 Reviewing competency-based assessment
Planning for assessment
Planning for assessment is a process that allows for clarification of the structure of the assessment,
what is involved and the assessment criteria candidates will be assessed against.
The essential tools for assessment planning include:
1. Assessment requirements
2. Assessment plan
3. PC weighting
4. PC evaluation tool
5. Assessment tools
1. ASSESSMENT REQUIREMENTS
Assessment requirements are guidelines that specify:
 Performance evidence
 Knowledge evidence
 Assessment Conditions and required conditions under which a unit of competency is
conducted.
 The benchmark for the assessment requirements is the Occupational Standard.
Performance evidence:
It specifies the ability to complete tasks, processes or products whose evidence needs to be
collected by an assessor to determine performance competency as outlined in elements and
performance criteria of the particular unit of competency.
It specifies the number of times a trainee should demonstrate the ability to complete a particular
task.
Performance evidence demonstrates what a learner can do.
Knowledge evidence:
The trainee must be able to demonstrate the essential knowledge required to effectively complete
tasks outlined in elements and performance criteria of this unit of competency including managing
tasks and managing contingencies in the context of the work role.
Knowledge evidence demonstrates what a learner knows.
Planning for assessment results in the development of an assessment plan
Assessment conditions describe:
 Assessment resources
 Assessment environment
 Standards and Legal requirements for the specific unit of competency
 Assessors requirements
Users of Assessment Requirements
Quality Assurance officers: They can use the document to check whether the assessment met the
requirements.
Assessors and verifiers: It guide in variables to assess, the number of assessments, resources
required and the environment of conducting the assessment.
Trainees: It guides the trainees in the areas of assessment.
Purposes of Assessment Requirements
 To ease competency-based assessment
 To specify requirements which trainees need to meet:
 For quality assurance
 It guides on who should conduct assessment in a particular unit of competency.
 It guides on the number of assessments to be conducted for the trainee to be judged
competent.
 It guides on the environment and resources required for conduct of assessment.
 To direct development of PC Weighting/Evaluation tool
 To direct development of assessment tools.
As an example let’s use the unit of competency as Apply environmental literacy

……………………
The process noted above is suitable for all forms of competency-based assessment, including
Recognition of Current Competencies or Prior Learning assessments, and other modes of flexible
delivery such as distance and online assessments.
As an assessor, you will need to make a decision or series of decisions about whether the person
being assessed has achieved the required competence. To do this you may be involved in deciding
what evidence is required. Whether you have this task or not you will probably have to provide
feedback to the candidate about the suitability of the evidence.
Evidence can be collected on a wide range of measurable aspects of performance. These may
include:
 products that have been made,
 processes that have been carried out,
 underpinning knowledge and understanding,
 underlying attitudes.
3. PC WEIGHTING TOOL

Weighting of performance criteria guides on evaluation of specific observable standards


by which candidate’s performance or products will be assessed based on their
importance.
The observable standards are specific and measurable statements defining performance
required to meet learning outcomes.
Importance of Performance Criteria Weighting
 It ensures the critical Performance Criteria are given more weight compared to those that
are non-critical.
 It ensures standardization in development of assessment tools i.e., allocation of marks to
various performance criteria.
 It guides on scoring the achievement of candidate against performance criteria.
Factors Considered in PC RANKING
 Critical or Non critical PC
 Knowledge based PC or Performance based PC
 Creativity level required to accomplish a task
 Number of tasks involved in the PC
 Whether the PC requires a Product or a Process or both.
STEPS IN PC RANKING
 Rank the elements based on the factors in PC ranking
 Calculate the weight of each element using the ranking
 Then multiply the elements based on the number of PC based on that element
 Distribute the weight for each element to theory and practical assessment using TVET
CDACC weighting for each level.
 After weighting the elements, you proceed to weight Performance criteria in each element
using the factors mentioned
Example using the sample unit of competency Apply Environmental literacy
We start by developing a PC checklist using the factors listed above

ASSESSMENT TOOLS
Assessment tool
Materials for collecting and analyzing evidence are often described as assessment tools or
instruments. In general, the term assessment tool is used to describe a document that contains
both:
• the instructions for gathering and interpreting evidence – ie the material that
helps set up an assessment event, including the instructions for the assessor
and
• the assessment instrument – ie the material that describes, measures and
records outcomes or evidence for each assessment event or activity.
Assessment tools also enable the assessor to justify that the assessment has been valid, reliable,
flexible and fair. The content of assessment tools includes the following:
• Specific instructions given to the candidate.
• Sets of verbal/written/ computer-based questions to be asked.
• Performance checklists.
• Log books (mentoring tool)
• Description of competent performance
A number of these tools may be used in combination in order to provide enough evidence to
make a judgement. Having instructions and instruments means that assessment tools can be
used by other assessors, saves time and helps eliminate personal biases.
The assessment tools include the following:
1. Candidates tool
a. Written paper
b. Practical paper
2. Assessors tools
a. Written guide (marking scheme)
b. Observation checklist
