Self-Assessment Tool for VPL Assessors

Self assessment tool for assessors working with validation of prior learning (VPL)

This is your personal self-assessment account. You can print your results, including a further development plan that you have created yourself, after you have finished your self-assessment. You may return back to your assessment later on, edit it or retake the self-assessment.

Use: self assessment according to processes that are typical for assessors in validation. The tool comprises of two sections. In the first section, you are assessing your underpinning knowledge of VPL (more theoretical) and in the second section, you are assessing your underpinning occupational competences (more practical). In case any of the questions does not apply to your VPL system,  you may choose "Not applicable", which does not reduce your overall results.

To whom: assessors working with validation of prior learning.

Result: information in graphical form of your strengths and development needs along with a further development plan that you can design according to your own needs in the open questions part after each category.

This set of tools is partly based on NVL publication Nordic Competence Profiles of Validation Practitioners and Competence Development.
