workplace assessment, a place of content not procedure

Algernon was a creature of 'Procedure.' A batchelor. He was a 'Workplace Assessor.' A very expensive one. He had been performing this function for a long time and even slept with the documents of Assessment under his pillow, for reasons known only to him. It hadn't cost him many $$$$ to get his Accreditation. Just a 'phonecall to a 'mate.' A model of Assessment, Workplace Assessment, he was. Those he 'Assessed' were fairly, flexibly judged according to the ATQF Assessment Dogma. Procedure-wise. Not content-wise. He loved his work.

His core role was to develop competency based training courses, training programs, educational pathways, flexible teaching and assessment strategies and learner resource materials to support the implementation of training packages. He also played a significant role in contributing to and implementing vocational education and training policies and practice at both state and national levels. He had a strong customer focus, a knowledge of current education and training trends in industry and the community, access to professional staff with relevant educational and technical expertise, effective management support systems and processes that are quality certified, developed and maintained through a quality management system complying with the requirements of the international quality system standard AS/NZS ISO 9001. This standard provides a model for quality assurance in the design and development of curriculum related products and services, the provision of consultancy services in curriculum related areas and the professional development of teachers and trainers. (Yukky-Boo!)

One could say he was a "bullshit artiste" with no knowledge of the real capabilty of those assessed, only the ability to make them feel warm and cosy?

Then, one day, his lone Consultancy was contracted to assess an 'Hospitality' facility. He downloaded and extricated the relevant dogma, read it and put it under his pillow, as was his wont.

The next day he arrived at the assessment 'place.' It did not appear to be an hotel.

The man he met inside was quite hospitable. "Mr B. Ordello?" Algernon asked. The man looked puzzled. "I'm Brian," he answered, hunched his shoulders and ushered Algernon into a large dark room wherein the staff were. Before Algernon could open his Assessment docs he was whisked away by 'Sylphia' who would show him the 'Hospitality Methodology' of the 'house.'

Within that darkened room THHCOR02A/01, THHCOR02A/02, seemed not to apply as he found himself without clothing.

The focus of this unit appeared dependent upon the cultural context of this workplace and the cultural background of this individual.

She was difficult to understand with his donger in her mouth, but, somehow it seemed not to matter.

"Assessment should take account of the cultural variances and requirements that apply in particular situations." This he remembered until his left-lobe handed over to the bicameral right-lobe and "Assessment" was gone, ejaculated into the depths of orality.

After Sylphia had finished, his left lobe remembered, "Evidence of competence should relate to different communication and customer service contexts and may need to be collected over a period of time."

Then, Amelia and Babe replaced Sylphia. He had no Assessment for "Menage a Trois!"

He spent innumerable days there. Assessing each staff member in turn and positional accreditable functionality and in variable numbers. He did not know why. There were no standards within his portfolio that covered this Workplace.

When he left he accredited the establishment as 'HD.' [Perhaps. "Happy Donger?"] But left understanding what real 'Procedure' meant, and really devoid of 'Content.'

He rang the BTELL temp who had typed the order to engage him inquiring what the definition of the lexical squiggle, "B. Ordello," meant.

Sorry. A "typo" was the answer. The "dot" shouldn't have been there.

How many of these "typos" exist in the lexical 'squiggles' we are to be 'accredited' to, iwishihad would ask?

Algernon now cuddles his pillow, with nothing inserted beneath it and has a free, lifelong membership with Brian's 'HD" Accredited establishment.

He is now really full of 'Procedure' and totally devoid of 'Content.'

iwishihad wonders if we realise that our future lies within those we vote to take charge of our destiny, whom have no such accreditational obstacles to either understand or overcome like we do.

They have their lifelong 'Gold-Card' and "Super?"
