Students are provided with assessment resources at the commencement of each unit, along with the relevant learning materials. These resources outline the range and types of assessment tasks to be completed for each unit.
Assessments may include short written knowledge tests, case studies, projects, research activities, written reports, discussions, and the compilation of a portfolio of evidence. Practical tasks such as demonstrations, role plays, and presentations are also conducted within a simulated business environment.
To achieve the best outcomes, students are expected to dedicate additional time outside scheduled classes to complete assessment tasks and prepare for submissions.

RPL applications are assessed against the unit of competency requirements, and sufficient evidence must be provided. An RPL assessment plan will be developed in consultation with the candidate.
