Northland Moderation
Moderation is an important aspect of ensuring that all Providers and Workplace Assessors are assessing at the required level. The purpose of moderation is to ensure that valid, fair and consistent assessment decisions are being made. The NZHITO’s AMAP requires providers to successfully moderate at least TWO NZQA Unit Standards each year if assessing more than 5 units per year; and ONE Unit Standard if assessing less than five Units per year. Please note that anyone assessing Floristry, Arboriculture or Viticulture Units needs to attend a specific sector Moderation Workshop for each of these domains, as they will not be moderated at Regional Provider Moderation Workshops. Meeting the requirements of Sector Moderations is in addition to the requirements of Cluster Moderations.

The Moderation Process...
- Accredited Providers are required to submit their assessment material for moderation purposes. This should include:
- 3 copies of the unit standard (please ensure that you have the correct version).
- 3 copies of the assessment.
- 3 copies of the assessment schedule, including model answers and judgement statements.
- Student scripts - Preferably there will be 3 different scripts showing candidates who have:
- Well and truly met the standard.
- Either just met the standard or just not met the standard.
- Definitely not met the standard.
- Peers from different providers will moderate the assessment material in association with the National Moderator from NZHITO. A blank moderation report with moderation criteria and guidance will be provided.
- The completed moderation report will identify if all of the moderation criteria has been met. If all of the criteria has not been met, the report will identify the corrective actions that need to be taken and by when. Follow up moderations are planned so that providers can resubmit assessment material if required to complete the moderation process.
