External Examiners are guardians of the standard of academic training and assessment on training courses as set by UKCP at Masters Level. They monitor, advise and assist the organisation in upholding these standards
External Examiners have overall responsibility for academic standards. They monitor all aspects of the assessment process. They are required to indicate that the standard of the work meets the criteria for the grades and awards given and that these are consistent with similar courses across the country. They need to check that these standards are in line with the requirements of national benchmarks and consistent with current developments in the field. UKCP HIP College expectation is that work will be at Master’s Level (Level 7). http://www.welshpsychotherapy.org.uk/
