Consultations on the Concept of Chartered Educational Assessor

Background

Between April 2006 and January 2007 the Institute of Educational Assessors (IEA) held consultation sessions on the concept of Chartered Educational Assessor (CEA).

CEA post consultation proposals

Objectives of the consultation process

  • To invite a range of educational stakeholders to join a limited consultation exercise on the IEA's proposals for a CEA
  • To receive comments and suggestions on the proposals from those consulted

Purpose of the consultations

  • To gather respondents' comments and suggestions and, as decided by the IEA, make recommendations and determine appropriate actions

Consultations

Consultations were held with teachers, examiners, awarding bodies, teacher associations and trade unions and other educational stakeholders. In total 61 people were consulted. Of these, 49 people were representing 18 educational organisations and 12 were teachers and external examiners invited by the IEA to participate in two CEA development groups. A list of those consulted can be found in the full document.
