Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to collect, collate and organise familiar and routine data and construct tables, column and bar graphs.

This unit applies to individuals who need numeracy skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) level 3 to undertake a vocational training pathway or workplace tasks.

This unit is designed for integration and contextualisation with vocational units to support achievement of vocational competency

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

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

4.3 Report or discuss information using formal and informal mathematical language

Evidence of the ability to:

use appropriate method to collect and collate data

construct tables and graphs to suit purpose.

Note: Where a specific volume and/or frequency is not specified, evidence must be provided at least once.

Evidence of the following knowledge must be demonstrated:

appropriate use of different kinds of graphs

simple scales.

Assessment texts and tasks reflect those typically found in the workplace.

Individuals can access own familiar support resources.

Access to calculators or computer software is available as required.

Culturally appropriate processes and techniques suited to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of individuals and the work being performed must be used.

Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements, have a sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - numeracy.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
