FlexPath: A case study in building competency based direct assessment offeringsJeff Grann
In October 2013, Capella University launched FlexPath, America’s first federally-approved direct assessment programs at the bachelor degree and master degree levels. Students in these offerings advance by demonstrating competencies according to faculty judged performance across multiple authentic assessments. This approach is unique from traditional programs in which students advance based on credits tied to estimates of instruction time. Key analytic and visualization techniques supporting these offerings are presented along with evaluation data indicating that adult students save both time and money compared to credit-bearing programs while maintaining comparable levels of academic achievement.

ASSESSMENT INFORMATION for students
Throughout your training, Kingston Institute of Australia is committed to your learning by providing a training and assessment framework that ensures the knowledge gained through training is translated into practical on the job improvements.
You are going to be assessed for:
· Your skills and knowledge using written and observation activities that apply to the workplace or a simulated environment.
· Your ability to apply your learning.
· Your ability to recognize common principles and actively use these on the job.
All of your assessment and training is provided as a positive learning tool. Your assessor will guide your learning and provide feedback on your responses to the assessment materials until you have been deemed competent in this unit.
Assessment Process
The process we follow is known as competency-based assessment. To achieve competency in this unit, you need to consider the components of the training package and fulfill the assessment requirements. Some of the components are Elements, Performance Criteria, Performance Evidence, Knowledge Evidence and Assessment Conditions. For more details on components, please visit the following links and search for the unit using the unit code;
https://training.gov.au/Training/Details
In competency-based assessment, the evidence of your current skills and knowledge will be measured against national standards of best practice, not against the learning you have undertaken either recently or in the past. Some of the assessment will be concerned with how you apply your skills and knowledge in the workplace, and some in the training room as required by each unit.
The assessment tasks have been designed to enable you to demonstrate the required skills and knowledge and produce the critical evidence to successfully demonstrate competency at the required standard.
Your assessor will explain the assessment process and ensure that you are ready for assessment. Your assessment tasks will outline the evidence to be collected and how it will be collected, for example; a written activity, case study, or demonstration and observation.
