Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority

Exam Personnel

Thousands of examination personnel assist the HKEAA with large-scale examinations every year. Most of them are teachers in secondary schools and universities. Some assist in the design and development of question papers and marking schemes, while others perform the roles of markers, oral examiners and invigilators.

Each year, hundreds of teaching and subject experts from the tertiary and school education sectors assist with the delivery of public examinations. They undertake different roles in the assessment and examination processes, including examination design, question paper development, marking and grading, invigilation as well as supporting the proper conduct of School-based Assessment at schools.

Each of these roles allows our examination personnel to develop professionally and make a significant contribution to public assessment. Throughout the various processes, we ensure that they have ample resources, support and guidance to carry out their duties. We also provide them with full administrative support, detailed instructions, and appropriate training.
