The Assessment Process and Student Rights & Responsibilities
Submitting your Assessment Tasks:
When you have completed your assessment, you will need to submit them, according to the instructions
provided to you by your trainer/ assessor. This may either be through TURNITIN or email or by hand to
the assigned trainer/assessor.

You will be provided with a due date and you must make sure you submit your assessments in accordance
with it. You may be required to apply for an extension if you require extra time, according to your SPI
policies and procedures.
Make sure you keep a copy of your tasks before you submit them. SPI will need to keep them as evidence
and may not be able to return them to you.
Task specific instructions can be found further in this document.

Assessment Attempts and Resubmissions: You have up to three attempts to complete each assessment
tasks satisfactorily. If after the third attempt, you have not completed a task satisfactorily, your assessor will
have to mark your result for the unit as ‘Not Yet Competent’ (NYC).
You will then have to discuss alternative arrangements for re-assessment with the intervention team. The
alternative arrangement may even include the student re-enrolling in the unit, participating in additional training
or attempting the task again at a later date, so that skills and knowledge can be consolidated. These
arrangements will be in accordance with SPI policies and procedures.
When you are required to resubmit, you may be required to:




resubmit incorrect answers to questions (such as for written tasks and case studies)
resubmit all or part of a project, depending on how the error affects the overall outcome of the task
redo a role-play after being provided with appropriate feedback about their original performance
be observed a second (or third) time undertaking any tasks or activities that were not completed
satisfactorily the first time, after being provided with appropriate feedback.

When you are required to resubmit, you’ll be given a due date for your resubmission. All re-submissions will
be conducted in accordance with the SPI policies and procedures.
Assessment Outcomes: Each assessment task will be given an outcome of either Competent (C) or Not Yet
Competent (NYC). Students must complete all tasks for a unit satisfactorily to achieve an overall outcome of
Competent (C) for a unit. If one or more tasks are assessed as Not Yet Competent, students will be given an
overall outcome for the unit of Not Yet Competent (NYC).
Plagiarism, Cheating and Collusion: Plagiarism, cheating and collusion on assessments is not acceptable.
Any incidence of this is considered academic misconduct. The definitions of each of these are below.


cheating – seeking to obtain an unfair advantage in the assessment of any piece of work
plagiarism – to take and use the ideas and/or expressions and/or wording of another person or
organisation and pass them off as your own by failing to give appropriate acknowledgement. This
includes material from any sources, such as staff members, other students, authors, texts, resources
and the internet, whether published or unpublished
collusion – unauthorised collaboration between students.

Where your assessor believes there has been an incident of academic misconduct involving plagiarism,
cheating, and/or collusion, this will be addressed in line with the SPI policies and procedures which may
ultimately lead to an academic misconduct warning and you needing to complete the whole unit again.
Assessment Appeals: If you don’t agree with an assessment decision made, you have the right to appeal it.
You may need to lodge your request for an appeal within a certain amount of time from the original decision
being made. You will need to make your appeal in writing and follow SPI process for appeals. Refer to your
Student Handbook for more information about our appeals process.
Reasonable Adjustments: These can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.
A legislative and regulatory framework underpins and supports the delivery of vocational education and
training across Australia. Under this framework, providers of vocational education and training must take steps

Student Assessment
BSBLDR601 Student Assessment V1.0 June 2021 Page 4 of 22
© 2020 Eduworks Resources
to ensure that learners with recognised disabilities have the same learning opportunities and opportunities to
perform and complete assessments as learners without disabilities.
Adjustments include any changes to the assessment process or context that meet the individual needs of the
person with a disability, but do not change competency outcomes. Sometimes reasonable adjustments are
made to the learning environment, training delivery, learning resources and/or assessment tasks to
accommodate the particular needs of a student with a disability. Your trainer/ assessor may also provide
assistance / intervention during the assessments in the event that there is a risk of injury to the student or to
the other members of the class.
An adjustment is reasonable if it can accommodate the student’s particular needs while also taking into
account factors such as:



the views of the student
the potential effect of the adjustment on the student and others
the costs and benefits of making the adjustment.

Making reasonable adjustments requires the RTO to balance the need for change with the expense or effort
involved in making this change. If an adjustment requires a disproportionately high expenditure or disruption,
it is not likely to be reasonable.
1
Thus, if students are considered to have special needs, trainer/ assessors are allowed to provide reasonable
adjustment in accordance with SPI Policies and Procedures which means there may be modification to the
way in which evidence is gathered. This could include alternative methods of assessment. However, it will not
change the standards or outcomes the student achieves.
Please discuss with your assessor if you believe a reasonable adjustment to an assessment task, method or
process needs to be made on the basis of disability. Reasonable adjustments made for you will be recorded
in the space provided in the checklist for the relevant task and in the Unit Assessment Record sheet.
Information about Assessment
Assessment: Assessment is ‘the process of collecting evidence and making judgements on whether
competency has been achieved, to confirm that an individual can perform to the standard required in the
workplace, as specified in a training package or VET accredited course’.2
Dimensions of Competency: To be competent, a person must show their ability to perform effectively in a
broad capacity. The dimensions of competency ensure that the person being assessed has the skills to
perform competently in a variety of different circumstances. To be competent, a person must demonstrate the
following:

Task skills – These are the skills that are needed to perform a task at an acceptable level. They are
usually described in the performance criteria and include knowledge and practical skills.
Task management skills – These are skills in organising and coordinating, which are needed to be
able to work competently while managing a number of tasks or activities as part of a job.
Contingency skills – These are the skills that are needed to respond and react appropriately to
unexpected problems, changes in routine and breakdowns while also performing competently.
Job role/environment skills – These are the skills that are needed to perform as expected in a

particular job, position and location, and with others. These skills may be described in a range of
variables and in the underpinning skills and knowledge.

Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence: Assessment must be conducted in accordance with the
rules of evidence and principles of assessment. The following definitions of these terms are taken from the
Australian Skills Quality Authority’s
Users’ guide: standards for registered training organisations (RTOs) 2015.
Principles of Assessment –

Validity: ‘Any assessment decision of the RTO is justified, based on the evidence of performance of
the individual learner. Validity requires:
assessment against the unit(s) of competency and the associated assessment requirements
covers the broad range of skills and knowledge that are essential to competent performance

assessment of knowledge and skills is integrated with their practical application
assessment to be based on evidence that demonstrates that a learner could demonstrate these
skills and knowledge in other similar situations

judgement of competence is based on evidence of learner performance that is aligned to the unit/s
of competency and associated assessment requirements.’
Reliability: ‘Evidence presented for assessment is consistently interpreted and assessment results
are comparable irrespective of the assessor conducting the assessment.’
Flexibility: ‘Assessment is flexible to the individual learner by:

reflecting the learner’s needs
assessing competencies held by the learner no matter how or where they have been acquired
drawing from a range of assessment methods and using those that are appropriate to the context,
the unit of competency and associated assessment requirements, and the individual.’
Fairness: ‘The individual learner’s needs are considered in the assessment process. Where
appropriate, reasonable adjustments are applied by the RTO to take into account the individual
learner’s needs. The RTO informs the learner about the assessment process and provides the learner
with the opportunity to challenge the result of the assessment and be reassessed if necessary.’
Students are required to sign the declaration in this Student Assessment booklet and ensure that they have
advised the trainers/assessors if they have any special needs or considerations that may affect their ability to
complete the assessments. Any reasonable adjustments to these assessments must be noted in the
Assessment Record Tool for this unit &/ or in the checklist for the relevant task.
Students are provided with information about the appeals process in the Student Handbook as well as on the
SPI Website.
Rules of Evidence –

Validity: ‘The assessor is assured that the learner has the skills, knowledge and attributes as
described in the module or unit of competency and associated assessment requirements.’
Sufficiency: ‘The assessor is assured that the quality, quantity and relevance of the assessment
evidence enables a judgement to be made of a learner’s competency.’
Currency: ‘The assessor is assured that the assessment evidence demonstrates current
competency. This requires the assessment evidence to be from the present or the very recent past.’
Authenticity: ‘The assessor is assured that the evidence presented for assessment is the learner’s
own work.’
3

Students are required to sign the declaration section in the Unit Assessment Record sheet and indicate that
the work that they have submitted for assessment is their own.
Practical tasks, observations and confirmation of skills by the assessor ensure that the assessor sees the
student applying the skills and knowledge required for this unit.
Third-party reports (where applicable) require third-party persons to confirm that they have observed the
student undertake the tasks detailed in the checklist.

Glossary of Instructional Task Words: The assessment tasks use a range of instructional words, such as
‘compare’ and ‘list’. These terms will guide the student and trainer/ assessor regarding the level of detail that
must be provided in students’ answers. Some questions will also tell the trainer/ assessor as to how many
answers students need to give – for example, ‘Describe
three strategies…’. Use the following glossary as a
guide to interpret the words in the tasks:

Analyse – This means the students should break an issue down into its component parts, identify
them and explain how they relate. The issue has to be discussed in detail and methodically.
Define: This means that the student should explain, in their own words, the meaning or interpretation
of a term or concept, including any qualities that are essential to understanding.
Describe – This means that the student should outline the most noticeable qualities or features of an
idea, topic or the focus of the question.
Discuss – This means that the student must point out the important issues, features, key points and
possible interpretations of the question, and debate these through argument, providing reasons for
and against them.
Evaluate – This means that the student must judge or calculate the quality, importance, amount, or
value of something. An in-depth answer must be provided with as much detail as possible.
Explain – This means that the student needs to make something clear or show their understanding

by describing or providing information about a topic. They will need to make clear how or why
something happened or why something is the way it is.

Identify – This means that the student must recognise something and indicate the required
information. The length of the answer should be guided by what it is that they are being asked to
identify.
List – This means that the student must record short pieces of information in the form of a numbered
or bulleted list, with one or two words, phrases or sentences on each line.
Outline – This means that the student must give a brief description of the main facts or sequence of

events about something. The length of the response should be guided by what they are required to
outline. As long as the student includes the main facts or points, their response will be sufficient.

Summarise – This means that the student must express the most important facts or points about
something in a concise way.

Date/time: Monday 11:29 a.m.
Subject: Strategic Changes
Attachment: Strategic Plan.docx
Good morning Adrian,
I have an important task that I would like you to undertake. Recently the CBSA board released its strategic
objectives for the year. I have attached these with this email for your reference. You should also review
the organisation’s Business Plan. While profit has kept stable over the last few years, it is hoped that the
new strategies will increase profitability. The need to relocate to less expensive premises (saving $30,000
per annum), and to undertake increased recruitment to cope with the expected new business are major
operational changes required by the organisation. These operational changes need to occur so that the
organisation can remain viable in an ever-increasing competitive market. It is anticipated that while there
will be some cost savings in making the change, there will also be costs involved including:
Adding new staff members – anticipated cost is $300,000
Upskilling existing staff – $100,000
Consulting with experts – $50,000
Communication throughout change with key stakeholders – $60,000
Office relocation – $50,000 – $60,000
I want you to manage these changes in a professional manner using a change management process.
Kind Regards,
Gavin Stead

TASK INSTRUCTIONS
Based on the email, you are to complete the following tasks:
1. Prepare for presentation. Your Assessor will provide details of the date, time and location of the
presentation, and invite other students to play the part of the staff.
For the purpose of this task, assume that one of your communication and education strategies (in your
Communication Plan) was to invite staff to an information session on the planned changes. As part of
this communication, staff will have the opportunity to complete an online survey regarding their feelings
about the change in general and how they think CBSA has communicated change previously.
To prepare for the presentation, you must:
a) Prepare staff communication. Prepare the communication to staff, ensuring that it includes the
arrangements for the information session (time and place, etc.) and enough information to entice
them to come along. This communication should be in the form of an email using the
organisation’s Email template.
b) Prepare survey questions. Document five questions that can be used to gather the attendee’s
thoughts and feelings about change in general, the changes you have proposed, and how they
think CBSA has communicated change previously. This will be completed by the attendees at the
conclusion of the presentation.

change process from the group.
c) You will be required to demonstrate effective communication skills and appropriate language to
respond to issues and questions raised by employees.

and you will need to handle this. You will need to do this by using your problem-solving skills to
work out how to handle this situation and apply effective negotiation and consultation skills.
