Chartered Educational Assessor programme
Over the past few months, we have been carefully reviewing our courses. A great deal of work has taken place behind the scenes to update and enhance them, ensuring they better reflect current developments in assessment, professional practice, and the needs of our community. These updates are designed to make our courses more engaging, more responsive to professional demands, and even more valuable for those looking to deepen their expertise in assessment. We are excited about the changes that are taking shape and look forward to sharing them with the CIEA community. There will be much to look forward to, with refreshed courses becoming available soon.
The Chartered Educational Assessor (CEA) programme is the benchmark of assessment excellence awarded under the CIEA Royal Charter. Committing to achieving Chartered Educational Assessor status is an endorsement of your professionalism and skills in and knowledge of assessment. Additionally, Chartered Educational Assessors can have a notable and positive effect on the success of their organisations.

The CEA operates at the highest level of the CIEA professional framework. The role of the CEA is to quality assure the assessment processes that a school, college, university or training centre use. Our CEA training programme supports the knowledge, skills and understanding of professionals engaged in assessment across multiple disciplines or subject contexts.
The CIEA qualifications aim to provide public assurance that all those engaged in assessment processes have a secure understanding of what is involved in high-quality assessment. This means looking at the policies and procedures and underlying processes that are in place and how the strategy for assessment is delivered in practice. Our CEA programme offers support in designing and developing effective assessments that are reliable, valid, fit for purpose, transparent and fair.
Steps to achieving CEA status
There are three steps to achieving Chartered Educational Assessor status. These steps can be completed flexibly to suit your situation. Each stage is a qualification in itself and you can choose to progress as far as you wish. To gain Chartered Educational Assessor status all three steps must be successfully completed in a specified timeframe.
The cost for all three stages if booked in advance is £1395 (a saving of £320 if booked individually).
