Assessment Body
An Assessment Body is an organization responsible for evaluating and certifying the skills, knowledge, or competencies of individuals in various fields. These bodies ensure that assessments are fair, reliable, and aligned with industry standards. They may conduct examinations, audits, or reviews to determine if candidates meet specific criteria.
Assessment bodies play a crucial role in maintaining quality and credibility in professional qualifications. They often collaborate with educational institutions, employers, and regulatory agencies to develop assessment frameworks. Examples of assessment bodies include the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
