To ensure that exams officers (and senior leaders) receive quality exams related training, the NAEO is launching an Exams Training Endorsement Programme.
Details of the NAEO Training Endorsement Programme will be available on this page in July 2025.
As the representative organisation for the exams officer community, the NAEO has a responsibility to ensure that our members are receiving quality, fit-for-purpose and value-for-money exams training.
To deliver this reassurance for our members, the NAEO will be issuing criteria which should be met be any training provider who is delivering exams-related training for exams officers, exams assistants and senior leaders/line managers on annual basis
Any organisation which meets this criteria will have access to a 'NAEO endorsed' logo for the current academic year which will provide reassurance for centres that:
- any members of their staff members who are involved in the management, administration and conducting examinations are receiving high quality training with accurate and up-to-date information
- the content of the training has been verified to ensure that it meets the requirements of an individual's role
- the content of the training protects the integrity and security of the examination system within the centre
- their centre budget is being used effectively on training which offers full value-for-money
