Assessment & Moderation

Nyiko, there are no prescribed rates for assessment & moderation. That is why I wanted to find out on this platform what are paid by different training providers.

If you are employed full time, I guess that you will get paid less because it is part of your job.

The fees that I’ve mentioned was shared in 2016. In the meanwile I’ve gained some…[Read more]

Good day Wilma de Villiers.

Thank you for the use-full information, Can i ask how does it work if you are permanently employed by the organisation that pay way lower that the stated amounts above…..is the any benchmark for companies that employ internal assessors and moderators…

your attention into this matter will be highly…[Read more]

Thanks Graeme

Much appreciated Sir.

Best regards

I am an independent assessor/ moderator (ECD qualifications) and was wondering what a reasonable rate for assessment and moderation it.

I know that the level and credits play a role. I read a post of 2016 that stated the moderation fee is: “We have charged anything between R250 and R500 per portfolio for assessment and R450 for moderation b…[Read more]

Good day Silvia and Des ,
I’m already accredited with Merseta and Service seta .

The question i’m asking is how must we get practical experience if no company wants to give you a change to prove yourself .

I could not agree more. I am innundated with queries from assessors and moderators who have completed training, been declared competent and who still do not know how to register as assessors or moderators. In addition they have not been told they must be subject matter experts in order to register. It is actually disgusting to say the least. How…[Read more]

Hi Johan,
thanks for your post – I think some training companies are really going to be made at this comment but I can’t help wondering whether there is a bit more required after the training.

I have had questions from people who have attended assessor training, and don’t know what to do next – what SETA to contact – etc.

Hi Adel

Thank you so much for this feedback. Glad to see that I am not alone here and that there certainly a gap in the market for Assessors and Moderators to mature their skills.
Please keep me posted wrt your workshops etc would be happy to attend.

Kind Regards
Des

@Des Squire – Thank you as well for your feedback, appreciated.

Good Afternoon all

I can confirm that Services SETA hardly does external moderation. MICTSETA do but for a significant number of learners. I have the privilege to be present with my moderation when external moderators arrive for checks, during the past three months I had 156 files from 5 different providers, and I had to assist the assessor in…[Read more]

There are no hard fast rulels or regulations relating to how assessors indicate they have assessed each page or each question. Old school thinking was the use of diffeerent pen colours. As a verifier I look for an indication that the assessor has in fact checked each question and this is best done by means of coloured pens (red for assessor)…[Read more]

Hi Wilma

Thanks so much for your feedback at least I don’t feel alone here and this is why I put it out there.

I am also going to try with SETA as I know someone there and if I manage to get any positive feedback I will keep you in the loop.

I think we should as Assessor and Moderators just share information we receive from internal and…[Read more]

Desiree, it is a challenge. We only found out at external moderation. I have asked the SETA several times for a policy or a manual/ guidelines. My defense was every time that it is nowhere in writing and it was not indicated in the previous external moderator report. It was then accepted and then indicated as a recommendation in the external…[Read more]
