Assessment Task
The aim of assessments is to test your knowledge, skills and understanding in relation to the topics

 Respond using a clear structure (e.g. Introduction, points of argument or fact, conclusion),
including references to the sources used.
All assessments required to be completed are compulsory as it is a required condition of your
enrolment.
Assessment requirements
The assessments within this document can be completed through several approaches such as:
 Observation of real, indisputable actions as they occur;
 Written or oral task such as reports, role play, work samples etc;
 Portfolios;
 Questions, or third-party evidence, in which the relevant document (observation document is
to be completed by the agreed third party.

All documents relating the third-party observation is to be provided to your trainer/assessor as this will
be used in determining your level of competency. Third-party evidence can be obtained from
supervisors (e.g., from the workplace), or clients/customers.
Please be informed that all assessments are to be typed up. Any handwritten assessments will not be
permitted unless approved by the trainer/assessor. You must also comply with assessment policy and
procedures at https://aibtglobal.edu.au/support/student-forms/policies/.
Simulation diary (if required): You will do the simulation tasks as a part of your course in the
designated simulated environment.
During the simulation session, the student is required to meet the following requirements:
 Follow the dress standards -enclosed shoes, appropriate clothing (no shorts or skirts)
 Be aware of relevant procedures in case of accident, emergencies, evacuation
 Follow the start and finish times, breaks, work routines, etc.
 Follow the policies on personal phone calls and personal emails.

Conduct Rules’.
 Students should come prepared for the planned activities for simulation.
Observation/demonstration/simulation (if required):
You may be required to perform tasks/works/assessments through observations, simulation, or
demonstrations. Your trainer/assessor will provide you with a list of demonstrations, logbooks,
simulation diary or any other related documents for tasks/works/assessments. The observation,
simulation or demonstration can occur in the workplace, or the training environment such as
workshop, or simulation labs. During observation, demonstration or simulation, you will be provided

course can result in additional costs/fees.

Academic misconduct
Academic Misconduct includes plagiarism, cheating and/or collusion, or any act or omission by a
student which attempts to circumvent or defeat the integrity of the College’s assessment process.
Without limiting the scope of the definition of academic misconduct, examples of plagiarism, cheating
and collusion are provided below:
Plagiarism is defined as taking someone else’s work or ideas and submitting it as their own. This may
include acts such as, but not limited to:
 Copying the direct words of a sentence or paragraph presented in a source, without
referencing it or giving it proper acknowledgement. This also extends to any structure used in
completing the project; and
 Submitting the same project as another learner who either is currently or has previously
completed it and presenting it as their own work.
Cheating occurs when you behave dishonestly in an attempt to obtain an unfair advantage in any form
of assessment. Examples of cheating include:
 Failing to adhere to examination conditions, for example, speaking or communicating with
other candidates in an examination, bringing unauthorised material into the examination
room, reading or attempting to read other students' answers, leaving the examination or test
answer papers exposed to another student’s view;
 Impersonating another student or arranging for someone to impersonate a student in any
assessment task;
 Purchasing assessment items from a contract cheating or ghost-writing service and
presenting them as the student’s own work;
 Allowing others to complete any assessment task and/or submit an assessment task which is
not the student’s own work;
 Fraudulent representation of any required documentation, for example, prior qualifications, or
medical certificates.
Collusion is defined where a learner collaborates with another learner currently enrolled or graduated
to produce an assessment which is submitted as their own. This may involve two or more learners
working together to produce the content of an assessment before submission.
Plagiarism, cheating and/or collusion is a behaviour that is strictly prohibited, therefore, prior to
completing your assessment it is advised that you refer to our Academic Misconduct policy and
procedure at https://aibtglobal.edu.au/support/student-forms/policies/ to ensure relevant compliance. If
you are found committing any of these acts, you will be investigated in which the appropriate
disciplinary action will be taken. As a result, it is important that you raise any questions regarding
plagiarism, cheating and collusion with your trainer before submitting the final assessment.
