Overview of Assessment

Assessment may incorporate a variety of methods including written/oral activities and demonstration of practical skills to the relevant industry standards. Participants are advised that they are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment activities to their teacher/assessor. Feedback will be provided throughout the course.

Assessment Tasks

Students are required to complete three different types of assessment tasks
1. Assessment 1 - Workbook activities as evidence of classroom participation ( 25% weighing)
2. Assessment 2 - In class test assessing essential skills and knowledge. (weighing 25%)
3. Assessment 3 – Drawings using work book project 6 (Draw job 20 – 65mm round penetration in a deck roof, Draw job 21 – 200mm x 200mm square duct through a deck roof and Draw job 24 – Non ferrous piping part 1 practice job). (weighing 50%)

To successfully complete this unit, a student needs to be deemed competent (CA grade) in all three assessment tasks.
Grading Criteria:
NYC - Not yet competent
CA - Competence Achieved
DNS - Did not submit assessment
