Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
It has been observed that although many programme of studies make room for placement learning, the achievement of students on practice are not being given proper recognition due to the absence of assessment. At the University of Mauritius, a set of core competencies have been identified and specific assessment criteria are set so that students can be assessed on eventual placement. This has enabled the trainee undergraduates to develop core competencies which have largely contributed to enhance their skills and employability.

This manual provides an overview of the five assessment methods commonly associated with PLAR and with competency-based assessment. These methods—self-assessments, written examinations, oral questioning, demonstrations and observations, and portfolios—are used by regulatory and licensing bodies, and by educational and training organizations, across Canada and around the world.

Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
Across multiple societal sectors, demand is growing to measure individual and group competencies. Unpacked following the assessment triangle (construct, observation, inference), competency measurement is exemplified by research from business, military and education sectors. Generalizability theory, a statistical theory for modeling and evaluating the dependability of competency scores, is applied to several of these examples. The paper then pulls together the threads into a general competency measurement model.

Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
Prior learning assessment (PLA) is a process that involves the identification, documentation, assessment of learning acquired through formal, non-formal and informal study. This may include work and life experience, training, independent study, volunteering, travel, hobbies, and family experiences. Recognition is the award of academic credits, trade/occupational and/or professional certification, or promotion within the workplace. http://www.nqai.ie/docs/international/LYNNLAKE.PPT
