Programs/Training Manager.
Adjustment to assessment
Flexibility in assessment will be considered where the integrity of the assessment and

a verbal assessment and recorded by a staff member where a student has sustained an
injury preventing them from writing. Any agreement for an adjustment to assessment must
be documented in writing to the program manager and placed in your student file.
