Abstract
The aim of this paper is to share lessons learnt from a unique change process in one Welsh university which involved changing institutional- wide assessment practices. The project is part of a Higher Education ‘Change Academy’ initiative which is a year-long programme of support for teams from higher education institutions to enable them to achieve complex institutional change. This project differs from many change initiatives in HE, as this project uses interdisciplinary constructs and theories and a bottom up approach involving both staff and students throughout the process. The project has been cited as good practice both within and outside the university. The lessons learned from this project are valuable to all involved in changing assessment in higher education.
