How does the CII approach marking for online examinations (objectively tested)?
In objectively tested examinations, a standard format multiple choice question consists of a problem followed by four optional answers (labelled A, B, C and D) from which the candidate must choose the correct or best response. Each question contains only one correct response. One mark is awarded for each correct response identified. No mark is awarded if the candidate chooses an incorrect response, chooses more than one response or fails to choose any response. No marks are deducted for an incorrect response. Online marking is automated with the pass mark pre-set. Quality assurance processes with inbuilt checks are in place to ensure that marking is accurate and that exam standards are maintained over time.
