Conduct formative and summative assessments, including practical observations and on-site evaluations where required. Liaise with industry partners to embed employability and current best practices into the curriculum. Coordinate exam entries, maintain course documentation, and contribute to ongoing curriculum development and internal quality assurance. Play a key role in ensuring retention, achievement, and positive learner outcomes across the programme.
