The 2008 ITAB Assessor Network in Review
The ITAB Assessor Network is three years old now and has enjoyed participation from a broad range of community services and health RTOs. The network met in February, June and October this year to engage in professional conversations about all things assessment and more. It has proved to be a valuable opportunity for members to network, share ideas and gain worthwhile professional knowledge in a friendly and open setting.
The Assessor Network is open to anyone who is involved in assessment of community services and health training and is run by the members, for the members. Topics for discussion come from the members and no question or concern is too small for consideration. As a bonus, the ITAB provides a Certificate of Participation with details of the topics covered (useful for RTO AQTF evidence) and an always welcomed array of refreshments!
The ITAB looks forward to another successful year of sharing and networking in 2009 and hope you will be able to join us. Below are the dates for the 2009 Assessor Network now and mark your diaries. For membership details and to
