General Information |
Decision Making Rules All assessment criteria within the task must be satisfactorily completed for the task to be assessed as satisfactorily completed.
Reasonable adjustment Reasonable adjustment for assessment tasks for a unit may be requested by the student for consideration by the facilitator for the methods by which evidence is collected. However, the evidence criteria for making competent/not yet competent decisions must be the same irrespective of the group and/or individual being assessed. Reasonable adjustment usually involves varying: · the processes for conducting the assessment (eg: allowing additional time, varying the venue) · the evidence gathering techniques (eg: oral rather than written questioning, use of a scribe, modifications to equipment)
Special Consideration Students can apply for special consideration if personal circumstances or illness have adversely affected their result in an assessment, or their ability to undertake an assessment. If they wish to seek special consideration, a special consideration form must be completed no later than 3 days after the due date of the assessment and submitted via e-mail to [email protected]

TAEASS502 Design and develop assessment tools This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to design and to develop assessment tools used to guide the collection of quality evidence, including their application in formative, summative and recognition of prior learning (RPL) assessment. It applies to experienced practitioners responsible for the development and/or delivery of training and assessment products and services.
TAEASS402 Assess competence This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to implement an assessment plan, and gather quality evidence to assess the competence of a candidate using compliant assessment tools. It applies to teachers, trainers and assessors in enterprises and registered training organisations (RTOs) and those providing assessment advisory services.
TAEASS403 Participate in assessment validation This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to participate in an assessment validation process. It applies to assessors and workplace supervisors with assessment validation responsibilities participating in, but not necessarily leading, the process.

Assessment support |
Your Assessor for this program is contactable via email for any questions, queries or concerns you may have through the assessment process. Included within the cost of each workshop is an assessor guidance session. This session is mandatory and you will need to book in your time when you receive your invitation. This session is designed to provide you with a one on one conversation with your assessor where you can clarify aspects of the assessment that you are unsure about. It is not designed for you to send in drafts for review or to get extensive feedback on work you have completed thus far. The conversation with your Assessor will be followed up with an email outlining what was discussed. |
TASK 1

Knowledge questions When preparing written responses to each of the knowledge questions, use examples to support wherever possible. These examples should be based on your own experiences and demonstrate your understanding of key concepts.
