Assessment is the gathering of evidence of successful performance. The
assessment should focus on the Learning Outcomes not on individual assessment
criteria. Assessment criteria are indicators of successful performance of the
learning outcome.

A holistic approach to assessment is desirable, ie. a single assessment
instrument may assess more than one learning outcome. For example, a workplace
project may assess both the planning and execution of a task(s).

Examples of assessment instruments include, but are not restricted to:

- practical demonstration and tests
- oral questioning about hazards and procedures
- projects
- portfolios
- peer assessment
- simulations
- use of checklists and standards
- set of questions based on the operator’s manual.

Results will be expressed as Pass (P) or Not Complete (NC).
