Assessors

If your organisation is committed to training and up-skilling staff using ATTTO qualifications, it may be worthwhile gaining registration to assess trainees in your workplace.

ATTTO works with workplace-based assessors to ensure they meet assessment standards and have the skills necessary to undertake assessments for trainees in their workplace. In return, workplaces can offer more flexibility to trainees around when and where they complete assessments.

What is an ATTTO Assessor?

A workplace assessor is a subject matter expert who holds a position of authority and responsibly in the workplace. The overall responsibility of an assessor is to conduct assessments and make objective assessment decisions regarding a trainee’s competency.

Workplace assessors must undergo specialised training with ATTTO to gain unit standard 4098 (Use standards to assess candidate’s performance).
