Assessment dates- Sub-Saharan Africa

We are introducing some improvements to the Assessment Platform to help guide Candidates and Counsellors at the submission stage.

 From 17 January 2025 the diary and logbook section have been moved to the home page of the Assessment Platform to be more accessible, this now has improved tracking functionality so candidates can see how many days they have left to meet the minimum requirement.  

From 1 February 2025 the Employment History section will be moved to the home page tracker, all candidates are required to provide all relevant employment history I order to submit for assessment.

When the assessment submission window is open, eligible candidates will see a banner that shows their application status as a reminder of their status during this important time.

• Assessment application has not been started
• Assessment application in progress
• Submitted for Assessment

Candidates will be asked to add their word count into the summary of experience upload page on the Assessment Platform. This page will also display which competencies that have been selected for candidates to check and confirm that the competencies in their Summary of Experience match those selected on the platform.

Candidates will be asked to add the word count and date of the project used in their case study into the Assessment Platform.

If the word count entered for either the Summary of Experience or case studies exceeds the maximum requirement then the candidate will not be able to proceed.

This will be displayed on the home page along with other key information such as pathway and counsellor

Counsellors will see the date their candidates’ last submitted for assessment and at any point during the candidates journey to assessment counsellor will now be able to review the candidate diary and log book entries.  to help monitor candidates progress.
