VTCT conference 9th May at NEC

The EOA is working closely with the VTCT to support its existing services to the exam office community. As we enter a new era in exam management and administration there is a need to continue to encourage a more sharing environment that benefits all of our community.

On-line support materials for teachers and assessors are available in the areas of anatomy and physiology, and health and safety to provide teachers with classroom ready presentation materials. This areas is continuing to develop and will are planning to implement the production of branded e-portfolios.

As an independent charity the EOA does not endorse or promote any specific services or products by VTCT or any awarding body. However, it is clear that the management and administration of examinations, where ever you are in the country or what ever type of centre you work in, experiences similar practices and procedures. Over the years the EOA has been working with awarding bodies and government agencies to encourage cooperation and coordination in this area. The EOA believes that this type of relationship fosters a greater sense of shared ownership in the successful delivery of present and future exam systems.
