Enacting assessment reform in a time of AI - Tertiary and Standards Quality Agency (Australia)

 The Australian Tertiary and Standards Quality Agency (TESQA) has published a report to provide guidance on assessment reform in the age of AI. 

The main approaches are:

- taking a programme wide approach to assessment reform i.e. across the entire degree programme

- assuring learning in every "unit/subject"- i.e. across a course

- implementing a combination of the above - by ensuring assessment mapping is constructively aligned between learning outcomes and assessments. 

The strengths and challenges of each of the above are presented and discussed.

Insightful article! As AI continues to reshape education and skills evaluation, it’s crucial to ensure assessment methods remain fair, practical, and inclusive. Platforms like RPL It Australia are already advancing this by offering a structured RPL assessment process that values real-world experience alongside formal learning. For professionals in regions such as RPL Alice Spring, this approach provides an excellent opportunity to gain nationally recognised qualifications while keeping pace with modern education and workforce standards.
