Recently I was asked to design some test questions and a guide for the evaluation of experience of people who don't have a degree in IT. This is called "Recognition of Prior Learning" (RPL) and usually applies in the vocational education and training (VET) sector, but is increasingly used in higher education as well.
There are some helpful documents available from the WA Department of Education and Training:
- Designing assessment tools for quality outcomes in VET, WA Department of Education and Training, 2008
- Recognition of Prior Learning: An assessment resource for VET practitioners, WA Department of Education and Training, 2009
