If a student is not happy with his/ her results, that student may appeal against their grade via a written letter, clearly stating the
grounds of appeal to the Chief Executive Officer. This should be submitted after completion of the subject and within fourteen days of
commencement of the new term.
Re-assessment Process:
An appeal in writing is made to the Academic Manager providing reasons for re-assessment /appeal.
Academic Manager will delegate another member to review the assessment.
The student will be advised of the review result done by another assessor.
If the student is still not satisfied and further challenges the decision, then a review panel is formed comprising the
lecturer/trainer in charge and the Academic Manager or if need be an external assessor.
The Institute will advise the student within 14 days from the submission date of the appeal. The decision of the panel will be
deemed to be final.
If the student is still not satisfied with the result, he / she has the right to seek independent advice or follow external
mediation option with nominated mediation agency.
Any student who fails a compulsory subject or appeals unsuccessfully will be required to re-enrol in that subject.
The cost of reassessment will be borne by the Institute. The external assessor will base his/her judgement based on principles of
assessment. These principles require assessment to be reliable, fair, practical and valid.
Academic Appeals:
If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of the re-evaluation process, you have a right to appeal through academic appeals
handling protocol.
To appeal a decision, the person is required to complete the WSC- Request for Appeal of a Decision form with all other
supporting documents, if any. This form is available via our website. The completed Request for Appeal form is to be
submitted to the Student Support Officer either in hard copy or electronically via the following contact details:
Student Support Officer, Western Sydney College (WSC), 55 High St, Parramatta NSW 2150, Email:
Complaints@wsc.nsw.edu.au
The notice of appeal should be in writing addressed to the Chief Executive Officer and submitted within seven days of
notification of the outcome of the re-evaluation process.
If the appeal is not lodged in the specified time, the result will stand and you must re-enrol in the unit.
In emergency circumstances, such as in cases of serious illness or injury, you must forward a medical certificate in support
of a deferred appeal. The notice of appeal must be made within three working days of the concluding date shown on the
medical certificate.
The decision of Chief Executive Officer will be final.
Student would then have the right to pursue the claim through an independent external body as detailed in the students’
complaint / grievance policy.
TASK SUMMARY
For this task, you must provide effective on-the-job coaching to four different colleagues. There are three parts
to this task:
Part A: You must prepare for coaching and develop a coaching session outline.
Part B: You must implement coaching sessions.
Part C: You must follow up on coaching sessions, seek feedback, and report on the progress of coaching.
For this part of the task you must organise a time to meet with each of the four trainees individually.
Talk to each trainee to learn about their current skills and knowledge and identify areas in which they may need
training. Use the following points to guide your discussion:
What is the need for coaching in this situation?
What does this person need to learn?
What are their current skills?
What is their current knowledge?
After each discussion, develop a coaching session outline for each of the trainees, using the template provided.
Your coaching session outline must include:
The trainee’s need for coaching.
A description of the task/skill that you will be teaching the trainee.
When and where the training will occur. (Each coaching session must be delivered to each trainee
individually, at different times.)
Resources required for the coaching session.
Session start time and end time.
A task analysis – you must provide a breakdown of the steps that you will take to teach the trainee the new
task/skill.

This part of the task requires you to implement each of your coaching sessions. Your assessor will observe you
as you individually coach each of your four trainees.
Meet with each trainee in your specified training location. Make sure you have all the resources you need to
ensure each session runs smoothly.
At the beginning of each coaching session you must:
explain the purpose of the coaching session to your trainee.
tell them about the workplace procedures relevant to the task (for example, if you are getting them to
clean kitchen equipment, there would be procedures related to PPE, hazardous substances, food
safety etc.).
During each coaching session you must follow the principles of training by doing the following:
giving the trainee a detailed description about what you will be showing them (explanation).
doing the task and telling them about the knowledge required (demonstration).
when you have finished the task, briefly describing/summarising again how you did it (reviewing).
asking the trainee to confirm their understanding of what they have to do, including asking any
questions to clarify concerns (trainee explanation).
getting the trainee to demonstrate the task and watching how they do it.
when the trainee has finished the task, talking to them about what you observed – giving them
constructive feedback and making sure you identify areas where they did well (feedback).
Once you have completed each coaching session you must:
watch the trainee do this task at least two more times.
give them some help if you see they are having difficulties.
report their progress to your supervisor (workplace-based students) or your assessor (classroom-based
students).
Classroom based students will be observed completing each coaching session during class time, in a simulated
workplace environment.
If you are completing your coaching sessions in a real workplace, your assessor will visit you in the workplace
or you may provide video recorded footage of each of your coaching sessions. Discuss these options with your
assessor, including appropriate recording devices and method of submission (USB, email etc.)
During each coaching session your assessor will be looking to see that you:
explain the purpose for coaching
demonstrate specific skills
apply techniques to establish a rapport with the trainee
show sensitivity to the trainee (for example, if they become frustrated or upset with the task they are doing,
or keep making mistakes)
use appropriate communication techniques, including active listening and open questioning
provide the trainee with the opportunity to practice
provide constructive feedback
complete the coaching within the allocated timeframe
apply the key principles of learning.
Ask each of your trainees to fill out the feedback form (provided) after their coaching sessions.
After each training session, answer the following reflective questions:
1. Do you think you allocated enough time to the session?
2. Did you demonstrate the tasks properly?
3. Do you think the trainee had difficulty understanding what you did and how you explained it? Explain
why or why not.
4. What made you realise the trainee was struggling?
5. If you could not help the trainee with something, who would you call on for assistance?
6. What did you get out of the trainee’s feedback? Is there anything you disagree with?
7. What changes could you make if you had to coach someone else in the same tasks in the future?
Type your answers in a Microsoft Word document or similar and submit to your assessor, along with trainee
feedback forms.
