Pre-requisites:
New Evaluators

The Rookie Evaluator Training Course is two days in duration (NEW FOR 2012). This course is mandatory for all CASI members who wish to begin the Apprenticeship Program (“Rookie Evaluators”), and continue on to evaluating CASI Level 1 courses.
The focus of the two days will be based around a pedagogical approach to the Level 1 Course, allowing participants to see the course from the Evaluator’s perspective. Rookie Evaluators will look at demos, teaching standards, presentation of course material and evaluation procedures, as well as presentation of course material. Other topics covered will include details of the rookie process, and course administration/scheduling details.
Rookie Evaluators will be required to present parts of the Level 1 course, and will receive feedback on their technical ability, their pedagogical understanding, and their overall ability to conduct Level 1 courses. This feedback will assist Regional Coordinators in staffing courses with Rookie Evaluators. Following the completion of the Rookie Evaluator’s Precourse, new Evaluators will be required to complete the Apprenticeship Program, which consists of apprenticing a series of Level 1 courses, as required. New Evaluators are advised to review the CASI Level 1 Course Guide prior to attending the course, available here.
