Abstract

[Extract] As the availability of assessment expertise increases for health professional programmes, it is no longer acceptable to simply construct an assessment task without careful consideration of what the minimum acceptable score should be for candidates. This is particularly important in higher stakes examinations, where candidates are more likely to appeal adverse decisions, but is also helpful in providing feedback to all candidates with borderline scores in any assessment. Increasingly, accreditation authorities are asking health professional schools to justify how they ensure that graduates meet the expected standards.
