Assessor Fees Assessor fees for reassessments are negotiated and paid directly to the Assessor. Expenses may include travel and accommodation etc. | Upwards of $200 + expenses (Under 4 hrs contact) | Upwards of $375 + expenses (Under 8 hrs contact) |
Please note: Candidates have additional costs associated with transport to and from the course and during the course; food and accommodation (including hut fees).
The course fees that NZOIA charges cover less than half the cost to run the qualification scheme.
This includes:
- Assessor fees and expenses; travel to venue, food and accommodation
- Organisational and administrative costs related to the qualification scheme
- Operational costs of the Technical Sub Committee - the group responsible for monitoring, developing and managing the qualification scheme
- Assessor Training and Moderation
Currently NZOIA absorbs over 50% of the course costs. This is achieved through significant effort being invested by the board and staff to reduce costs and access funding from organisations such as Sport NZ.
