Reasonable Adjustment
Reasonable adjustment is available to all students for assessments and must be requested in writing, using the
Reasonable Adjustment form – this includes extensions which must be requested 1 week prior to the
assessment task due date. Reasonable Adjustment forms are available from your trainer.
On receipt of your completed Reasonable Adjustment form, your trainer/assessor will consider your request
and advise whether it is approved and what action will be taken.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
RPL is a formal process that recognises skills developed through previous training, work or life experience,
which match a unit of competency in a training course. If you believe you already have the skills covered in this
unit of competency, discuss this with your trainer, who will provide you with instructions for applying for RPL.
National Recognition / Credit Transfer
Qualifications or statements of attainment issued by other Registered Training Organisations are recognised by
the College. Where this unit of competency is equivalent to a unit of competency previously completed with
another provider, credit transfer will be offered and the course length adjusted accordingly. It is the
responsibility of the student to provide the relevant evidence of qualifications or statements of attainment issued
by other Registered Training Organisations, which will be verified by the College prior to credit transfer being
applied.
Support Services
Your trainer/assessor is able to clarify any aspect of an assessment task prior to it being administered. This
may include clarifying: knowledge and skills covered during the training program; the meaning of written
assessment questions; performance standards for practical assessments; and marking criteria.
Once the assessment process has commenced however, the assessor is not able to provide any intervention
or guidance, unless it is to prevent an unsafe act from being performed.
Please ask for help when you need it, as your trainer/assessor may not be aware that you have not understood
aspects of the training program, or are not feeling confident enough to engage in assessment activities.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism is using the words or ideas of others and presenting them as your own. Plagiarism is a type of
intellectual theft. It can take many forms, from deliberate cheating to accidentally copying from a source without
acknowledgement. In your assessments you must come up with your own ideas, however, at times you may
need to make reference to work that has been conducted by others. Important points to be aware of:
 Know what plagiarism is – refer to http://www.plagiarism.org/ for more information
 Reference your work / acknowledge all of your sources
“All of the following are considered plagiarism:
 turning in someone else's work as your own
 copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
 failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
 giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
 changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit
 copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether
you give credit or not...”
