The HKEAA annual Stakeholders' Forum held on 24 June 2023, was attended by around 20 representatives from school councils, professional bodies of the education sector, parent-teacher associations, and special educational needs students' concern groups. The Forum was convened by Mr Samuel Yung Wing-ki, the HKEAA Chairman, Prof Wei Xiang-dong, the Secretary General, and the Directors of the HKEAA, with the objective of fostering communication with stakeholders.
During the forum, the representatives of the HKEAA shared the latest development of the Authority with the participants and exchanged ideas on ways to enhance examination and assessment services. The participants actively shared their views on the assessment and administrative arrangements for the HKDSE, as well as other examination and assessment services.

The HKEAA has stringent measures to ensure confidentiality at all stages: from live examinations and script processing to marking and grading. To allow the public better understand how the HKEAA delivers professional, equitable and reliable public examinations, our Tsuen Wan Assessment Centre opened its doors to the public on 14 January 2023.
Visitors learned more about marking and grading through the seminars and the try-out sessions for the Onscreen Marking system. How to process answer scripts of public examinations was also introduced to the visitors during the seminars and script scanning demonstrations.
In celebration of the 45th anniversary of the HKEAA, docent tours of the Mementos Exhibition featuring selected public examination-related items, such as historical documents, publications, admission forms, question papers, and archive photos, were also arranged for the visitors.
