General Instructions to Student

Please read all the information before you proceed to complete the assessment tasks. If you do not understand any part of these instructions, please ask your trainer/assessor.

Objective of Assessment

The primary objective of assessment is to support and encourage your learning. Assessment results give the assessor an indication of how well you have learnt in class and or areas you may need extra support with. The assessments are intended to be equitable, fair and flexible. All the information, skills and knowledge being assessed by the assessments have been based on theory, practical and skills delivered by your trainer/assessor during classes, and or during self-directed study and meet the requirements of the unit of competency.

Assessment Feedback and Support throughout the Assessment Process

Students are encouraged to reflect on key observations and issues encountered during their studies to encourage learning. Knowing what you understand or have mastered and identifying where you need to improve the critical skills for successful learning.

Your assessor will give you feedback throughout the duration of the unit you are studying and after assessment results. The feedback given to you will always be to support your achievements and to monitor your progress throughout your studies.

Reasonable Adjustment or Special Needs

In the situation where you or your assessor feel that extra support needs to be given, your assessor will organise a time to meet with you and discuss the options available to you. Your assessors aim is to ensure the successful completion of your course with the least amount of difficulty.

Reasonable adjustment will be provided for students with a disability or learning difficulty according to the nature of the disability or difficulty. Reasonable adjustments are made to ensure that the student is not presented with artificial barriers to demonstrating achievement in the program of study. Reasonable adjustments may include the use of adaptive technology, educational support and alternative methods of assessment such as oral assessment.

In assessing the competence of individuals, assessors must provide for reasonable adjustments to ensure the assessment principles of fairness and flexibility are addressed. However, assessors must be confident that reasonable adjustments do not compromise the outcomes of the unit and the integrity of the qualifications and Statements of Attainment issued as certification of achievement.

Achieving a Satisfactory Result and Reassessment

This qualification is based on Competency based training.

There are two outcomes for each assessment task level:

S (S) = Satisfactory

Or: (NS) = Not Satisfactory (requires more training and experience or evidence to complete the

assessment).

You must achieve a satisfactory result for all components of the unit tasks to be deemed overall

Competent (C) in this unit.

▪ Should you not be successful in your attempt your assessor will provide directive feedback to guide to success in your second attempt; i.e. reassessment.

▪ You will be given two (2) re-assessment opportunities of which one will be at no cost to you but the second one will incur a fee. Please refer to the fee schedule located on the website.

▪ Assessment reasonable adjustment may be exercised by your assessor at their discretion.

Appeal an Academic Decision

Where a student does not agree with the Assessors decision they should first discuss the issue with the assessor and try to reach an understanding of the decision and a way forward to get the issue resolved.

If this informal approach does not lead to a satisfactory result for the student and he/she believes is unfair, then they may ask for another trainer/assessor to objectively re-mark their submission.

If the result and feedback from the 2nd re-marking is consistent with the first marking – yet the student still wishes to pursue the matter further - they may then lodge an appeal following the College’s Complaints and Appeals process. Please refer to the Victorian College of Education Complaints and Appeals Policy for further details.

Cheating and Plagiarism

Victorian College of Education will not tolerate Cheating and plagiarism from any student. Evidence of plagiarism and cheating are treated on a case by case basis and consequences for students engaging in such practices may include being deemed Not Yet Satisfactory in the assessment or Not Yet Competent in the unit or exclusion from the course If you are caught cheating, you will be required to re-enrol in the unit which will incur a fee. Please refer to the schedule of fees on the VCEA website.

Storage of the chemicals is also becoming a growing problem.

Staff are becoming overwhelmed with in-store orders and deliveries from the

headquarters/manufacturing plant to the warehouse as well as customer orders are becoming delayed

due to transport issues and in-house manufacturing problems at Sydney.

Customer complaints are starting to increase from late deliveries and poor customer service.

The factory workers in the headquarters are all contractors and there are issues concerning training as

expanding the business.

Strategic priorities focus on business diversification and growth. Reducing costs and minimising risks.

Specifically, their objective is to increase market share by 10% and to expand the existing product range

to attract more customers.

The current business has always been a “bricks and mortar’ business with stores/warehouses in major

capital cities but now are considering shifting to an online order system.

including creating an online ordering site and customer portal to check and track deliveries.

Due to rising costs the business is considering importing from China one of the biggest selling products

instead of manufacturing on site in Sydney.

The CEO has asked you to investigate all the risks and rewards by undertaking a risk analysis

The CEO and shareholders are keen to get the business expansion started as soon as possible so you need

to get your risk management plan in place immediately.

Assessment 2 -Role Play

Communicate with relevant parties and invite participation in the risk process.

Task summary

For this task you are required to participate in a meeting to consult on risk management, and

then develop a risk management plan. (Assessment 3).

Resources and equipment required to complete this task

• Access to a simulated workplace environment – classroom.

• Space for a meeting.

• Role-play participants.

• Notebook or laptop for taking notes.

• Risk management plan template.

SCENARIO

The CEO and shareholders are impressed with your report and are confident in your ability to handle the risk management plan. They

have asked you to consult with the Marketing Manager and the Office Manager to identify the five greatest risks to the company and

then develop a risk management plan for dealing with them. The Marketing Manager and the Office Manager will be able to provide

you with input as to what their departments consider to be the greatest risks and provide some insight into treatment options.

One of the risks identified already by the CEO is that the company’s disaster recovery plan needs to be

investigated and updated. This responsibility will fall on you as the Operation’s Manager but will require

input from the CEO. Last month there was a power outage for 2 hours during an unexpected storm. According to the disaster recovery

plan, a generator would kick in after an outage of longer than one hour; however, this never happened. If this happens again and the

power outage was longer than three hours – this could mean that many of the products in the process of production would be adversely

affected and losses could be high. With the new online ordering product output will need to increase, therefore this is a risk that the CEO

Assessment Resource | BSBRSK501

is very uncomfortable about.

From your report in assessment 1 – you would have invited the CEO ,the Marketing Manager and the Office Manager to the meeting

with a brief explanation of the purpose of the meeting and the input you would like them to provide; as well as the details of time, date

and location (your assessor will provide you with the date and time for this assessment to take place).

Assessment Resource | BSBRSK501

BSBRSK501 – Assessment Tool –Student copy Version 2.0 CRICOS No. 036648 RTO No. 45316 Page 4 of 40

Now it’s time to chair the risk consultation meeting.

During the meeting, your assessor will be looking to see that you:

• Summarise the situation and your findings from your briefing report to the CEO and shareholders.

• Explain the risk management process.

• Invite participation on risks they have identified and which ones they feel are the greatest.

• Come to an agreement on the five (5) greatest risks to the company and brainstorm treatment

options and actions to be taken.

• Communicate effectively by using questioning and listening techniques to encourage other’s

opinions and clarify your understanding of them.

Assessment 4 – Project 2

Select and Implement Treatments

TASK SUMMARY

For this task you are required to implement a control measure and complete an evaluation.

The task involves 2 parts;

 Part A – the implementation

 Part B the evaluation.

WHAT NEEDS TO BE SUBMITTED?

▪ Report about training options and email to CEO.

▪ Email to staff.

▪ Evaluation report on the training.

▪ Evaluation of the project.

▪ Screenshot of file management.

INSTRUCTIONS

Part A – Implementation

Assume that one of the risks you identified in your risk management plan was the inability to attract sufficiently qualified and knowledgeable staff to manage the new retail stores.

The risk treatment identified was to invest in the training and development of existing staff to fulfil this role at least in the short term. It was identified that at least two of the existing customer service representatives are interested in taking on this new role. Neither of the two customer service representatives have managerial skills and knowledge but they both have excellent company and product knowledge, as well as customer service skills.

Assessment Resource | BSBRSK501

Your task is to research training options.

Review the case study information and research a range of potential training options for the customer service representatives. Identify three suitable options.

Develop a short report to the CEO (your assessor) outlining your recommended option/s for the training, including a rationale for your recommendation/s. Include the details of each recommended training option, including a summary of the training to be provided and outcomes, location, costs and duration as applicable. Include details of how you will monitor the training and ensure the outcomes will be met. If you have recommended on-the-job options, you will need to outline a brief plan for undertaking this form of training.

Send your report to the CEO (your assessor) via email with a covering email explaining the purpose of the report and seeking agreement to proceed with your recommended options.

Imagine that your report has now been approved; send an email to each of the customer service representatives outlining the arrangements of the training agreed upon (send this to your assessor).

Part B– Evaluation

The next part of this assessment task requires you to review the effectiveness of the implemented

treatment by reviewing the following information.

Assume that a staff survey has been sent to the two members of staff completing the training. You are

required to review and analyse the completed surveys provided on the next page and send a further short

report to the CEO via email. Based on your review and analysis, you should comment on the effectiveness

of the training undertaken by the staff members to date and your recommendations for any further

actions.

Note that the measure of success of this initiative was identified to be that the staff will have successfully

completed training and feel able to step into the new roles. You should therefore also comment on the

effectiveness of the measure in this regard. Submit to your assessor.

Write an evaluation report about the entire risk management process and how you feel you managed it.

Include an evaluation of:

1. The research you undertook, and sources used.

2. The meeting with your colleagues to identify and agree on risks including treatments and actions.

3. The development of your risk management plan, monitoring and evaluation processes.

4. Discuss what you believe you did well, how you may be able to improve next time you manage risk

and what you learned from the process. Submit this evaluation to your assessor.

5. Send a screen shot to your assessor of all the documentation for this project filed and stored in

electronic folders neatly labelled and organised to demonstrate that you can manage and maintain

project documentation.

Case Study – ‘Training Survey Results’

What aspects of the training you are participating in is most enjoyable?

Staff member 1: The practical aspect of the on-the-job mentoring is great combined with the formal

leadership training that I have attended. I feel that the combination of the formal training, as well as the

practical on-the-job training is the best combination for effective learning.

Staff member 2: I have really enjoyed learning theoretical management models that can be applied to the

workplace. I’ve tested some of these out and they really work.

What aspects of the training that you participated in is least enjoyable?

Staff member 1: Sometimes it has been difficult to fit in all the homework associated with the course, as

well as the regular mentoring meeting. This has created a bit of extra stress for me but overall has been

worth it.

Staff member 2: I can honestly say that the training has been great and is allowing me to progress in ways

that I could have never imagined. It’s been tricky at times trying to find time to meet with my mentor and I

think our company should put systems in place to ensure that mentoring managers are freed up to attend

meetings with the one being mentored. It’s all very well giving time for us for training but if managers

aren’t free, that’s not so great.

What benefits did the training provide to you?

Staff member 1: I have learnt practical skills, which I can apply to my work, as well as learnt some

interesting theoretical management models.

Staff member 2: I have really enjoyed learning theoretical management models that can be applied to the

workplace. I’ve tested some of these out and they really work. All the training I have done allows me to

advance in my career.

What additional training do you require to assist you in achieving your work goals?

Staff member 1: I am interested in learning more about talent management as I think this would be a good

way for the company to ensure excellent staffing for the company. It’s a competitive world out there for

staff and this would be a good way of ensuring the company has an extra competitive edge through top

quality staff in place.

Staff member 2: I’m pretty happy with what I am learning, I don’t really think I need anything else at the

moment.
