AI is here, and it is changing how we work, and inevitably, how we assess. As a sector, we need to remain current in terms of industry practice, and that will include us being able to graduate learners who have the AI skills to be productive and efficient in the workplace.

Explore a variety of ways we can adjust our assessment methods to address authenticity risks and also incorporate AI as a tool within assessment tasks. We will also look at ways we can use AI in our own practice as trainers and assessors.
