Abstract

Over the past several years Kingston University has embedded Assessment Centres into courses, now our Strategy is expanding delivery of simulated assessment centres as a core part of the second year stage of our Future Skills Student Journey. From September 2024 we plan to have all level 5 undergraduate students participate in assessment centre exercises. Initial participation was low, changes like transport support and enhanced briefings were made, improving attendance, understanding, feedback, and grades. Considerations remain around delivery format, exercise alignment, and expansion. Potential future developments include implementation across all university programs, and degree apprenticeships utilising assessment centres.
