This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to analyse, evaluate and respond to a range of complex workplace texts in printed or digital format, such as work and organisational plans, training needs analyses, reports, manuals, standard operating procedures, product reviews and flow charts.

This unit applies to individuals who need reading skills at Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) level 4 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)

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Element	Performance Criteria
Elements describe the essential outcomes.	Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.
1. Prepare to read complex workplace texts	1.1 Analyse purpose of text 1.2 Analyse text features
2. Analyse information in complex workplace texts	2.1 Use navigation skills to identify information 2.2 Interpret specialised or technical vocabulary in texts 2.3 Apply reading strategies to interpret and analyse information
3. Evaluate and respond to information in complex workplace texts	3.1 Critically evaluate information in complex workplace text 3.2 Use information to respond appropriately

Evidence of the ability to:

analyse and evaluate information from complex workplace texts to complete workplace tasks.

Evidence must be collected using complex texts typically found in the workplace.

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:

purpose and features of complex workplace texts

specialised or technical vocabulary relevant to complex workplace texts

reading strategies to analyse and critically evaluate information from complex workplace texts.

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

Individuals can access a range of established support resources.

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 sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - reading.

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.
