Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


Exhibitions take place in many different contexts and environments across both business and community contexts. The skills and knowledge outlined in this unit could be applied by exhibition venue staff or by people working independently to assist with the preparation of works for exhibition in galleries or other spaces, including virtual spaces. Exhibitions may be temporary or permanent in nature.

At this level, work is usually undertaken under supervision or within the context of established exhibition criteria, though some autonomy and judgement can be expected within established parameters.

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to select and prepare creative work for display or exhibition.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
