HERA Grade Boundaries

Roles are scored against 50 independent competency-based questions that are aligned under 14 key skill areas of the Higher Education Role Analysis (HERA) job evaluation framework.

Supporting evidence and role requirements are carefully assessed by a trained HERA analyst and a score is allocated to each of these areas. This provides a total score which aligns within a grade boundary and is used to confirm a grade outcome.

The table below shows the HERA points score for each of the University's grades.

Grade	Points
Grade B	Up to 210 points
Grade C	211 to 249 points
Grade D	250 to 325 points
Grade E	326 to 399 points
Grade F	400 to 449 points
Grade G	450 to 550 points
Grade H	551 points and above
