Introduction:
These Practical Activities and Written Questions have been developed to provide you with
the opportunity to demonstrate your skills, knowledge and ability to conceptualise, design,
develop and review learning programs to meet an identified need for a group of learners

Please read the learning resource accompanying this unit before attempting to respond to
the assessment tasks:
 Vocational Training & Assessment Series 2 (McGraw Hill et al,2016)
 Learner AssessmentBooklet
Assessment Process:
Assessment decisions will be based on your ability to demonstrate competency against all
performance criteria (included in this booklet) and required skills and knowledge as outlined in
the attached competency standard.Competency will be determined after reviewing all of the
evidence you have submitted.Each piece of assessment will be graded S (Satisfactory) or R
(Resubmit). When all evidence has been gathered, your assessor will make a final
judgment and sign off with C (competent) or NYC (not yet competent). If you have been
deemed competent your Assessor will return your copy of the ‘Final Judgment’ as evidence
of completion of this unit. Alternatively, you will be advised what further action you need to
take to achieve competency.
Assessment is used:
tomeasure Learners' preparedness for further study or professional accreditation;
to provide feedback on Learner learning for both Learners and staff;
todefine and protect academic standards;
to direct Learners' learning.
Effective assessment for a unit or program of study will typically include a mix of
assessmenttypes, selected and designed to meet these multiple and variousdemands.
