The Botswana Quality Authority (BQA) strived for quality training, assessment and moderation expertise and encourages training companies/institutions/organizations to build capacity in the pool of trainers, assessors and moderators in Botswana. Though moderation and assessment are mutually inclusive in moderation procedures there is need for a review of assessment tools .This program will assist trainers/assessors who will ultimately be moderators themselves appreciate that moderation helps the as assessors to increase the dependability of the assessment information they gather. This improves the decisions they make about student learning/training they are involved in. When assessment is moderated, it impacts positively on the teaching/training and encourage quality work and what criteria defines that type of work. When good decisions are made concerning the type of assessment to be implemented, teachers/trainers can develop self-reviews skills and attain professional development.

• Make sure that candidates are assessed in a consistent and well-designed manner.
• Make sure that assessments are carried out fairly.
• Handle appeals by dissatisfied candidates.
