Assessment Coding
Assessment of this program of study is based on competency based principles.
S = Satisfactory
NS = Not Satisfactory
Students who fail to perform satisfactorily for the assessment in the prescribed date may be assessed as ‘not
satisfactory’. You are required to be assessed as ‘Satisfactory’ on completion of Assessments as assigned by your
assessor/s for this unit of competency.
Assessor Judgement Guideline
The Assessment Benchmarks developed for each unit of competency is the evidence criteria used to judge the quality of
performance (i.e. the assessment decision-making rules). Assessors use these benchmarks to make judgement on
whether competency has been achieved and to determine if the participant has performed to the standard expected to
meet unit requirement and learning outcomes. Competency results for each unit are recorded in the Record of
Assessment Form.
Reasonable Adjustment
AHMI will allow flexibility in relation to the way in which each unit is delivered and assessed based on the student’s
requirement. The following are the reasonable adjustments for this unit:
Reasonable Adjustment for this unit College Based On Line
Delivery
assistance of a Learning Support Teacher for LLN issues 1 1
modifications to physical environment, eg wheelchair access 1 1
changes to course design, eg instead of written assessment task – change to verbal
1 1
questioning & assessor to write the answers
changes in lecture schedules and arrangements, eg relocating classes to an
1 1
accessible venue
modifications to computer equipment in the computer lab 1 1
provision of information or course materials in accessible format, eg a text book
1 1
in braille
supply of specialised equipment or services, eg a notetaker for a student who
1 1
cannot write
Re-assessment
Any re-assessment is conducted as soon as practicable after you have been informed of the requirement to be re-
assessed and have been given the opportunity to be re-trained and assimilate the training. You are re-assessed in only
the areas assessed NS. It is at the assessor/s discretion to re-assess the entire assessment should it be demonstrated an
overall understanding of this unit has not been achieved. Students that are assessed “satisfactory” after re-assessment of
areas deemed NS will achieve competency for this assignment.
I acknowledge the assessment process has been explained. I agreed to undertake the assessment. I am aware of the outcome of the
assessment. I am aware of AHMI appeals process, should the need arise. I also understand I must be assessed as ‘satisfactory’ in all parts
of the assessment to gain a competent result for this unit of competency. I declare the work contained in this assessment is my own,
except where acknowledgement of sources is made. I understand a person found responsible for academic misconduct will be subject to
disciplinary action (refer to student handbook).
