Level 7 ETAAC Online Course

Educational Testing and Access Arrangements Certificate (ETAAC)

Are you a teacher working in the UK system and wanting to process exam access arrangements? If so, then you must hold a qualification at or equivalent to Level 7 in individual specialist assessment. Our ETAAC course fulfills these criteria and enables teachers in the UK to meet the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ) regulations to practice as an access arrangements assessor. In addition, this course meets the professional accreditation to level 9 for Irish participants and is a professionally recognised certificate across Ireland.

Whether your need is for a professionally recognised course to further your skills in the UK or Ireland, the ETAAC through Eirim has you covered!

This professional course, taught by experienced Educational Psychologists, enables educators to develop the highest standards in educational assessment and to use these skills not only to apply for access arrangements in examinations but also to support and identify students with additional learning needs. The presence of a competent, confident and qualified assessor on staff will make a large and positive difference to the way in which students are supported as well as to their outlook and success.

  • Simone Redmond
    Really enjoyable, very intense but very beneficial. It was very interesting and I've come away with a lot of information. Really opens up your eyes to testing and the work that goes into everything. I now understand where a lot of the information in the manuals come from and how to administer tests and correct them. I can now do things in school that I have not done before.

  • Alison Perry, SENCO
    This was an enlightening course.  I have been working with testing and psychology reports for many years and this is the first time that I actually feel confident in understanding test results, their reliability and what they actually mean. You only think you have knowledge about diagnostic testing until you attend this course.

  • This course is a must!  It has given me a thorough insight into the reliability of tests which I have used, will not now use and tests I will now buy.
  • Leone Loughran
