National Police Promotion Framework (NPPF): Research Evidence on Work-Based Assessment
Appendix B. Rapid Evidence Assessment
L Miller, S Hayday, H Fearn, F Sumption | | The National Policing Improvement Agency (NPIA) | Aug 2010
A rapid evidence review was undertaken of literature relating to work-based assessment for the National Police Improvement Agency.
Two questions were addressed in the review:
- What works in terms of using a ‘work-based assessment’ methodology for providing a fair and usable system for assessing candidates in the workplace?
- What works in ensuring the ‘work-based assessment’ methodology is implemented effectively? (eg how to overcome challenges faced, organisational learning points for implementation etc.)
A systematic search of the literature was conducted and the findings synthesised into a report, with a list of implications being identified for the NPIA.
