ASSESSMENT PURPOSES WITHIN CAPACITY BUILDING
SUMMARY
Descriptions of the nine commonly recognised purposes of assessing learning within established adult teaching and learning practice.

If relevant, what are the essential features and processes of each of these purposes, in both capacity building arenas?
PROMPT FOR REFLECTION AND DISCUSSION
- Are all the purposes relevant and practicable within both Individual and Community Capacity Building?
- Are there any purposes, which present workers with significant assessment problems within Capacity Building?
