Completing key tasks and meeting key dates/deadlines is a key aspect of the exams officer role

To support effective planning and preparation, exams officers should be clear on what is expected of them and be aware of the awarding body administrative processes and key dates/deadlines relating to each type of qualification delivered in their centre.
