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.
Elements describe the essential outcomes | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element |
| |
1 | Develop risk management plan | 1.1 | Analyse and interpret strategic position and policy on risk management |
| 1.2 | Identify risk management context and potential areas of risk |
| 1.3 | Analyse organisational capability to manage risk and achieve objectives |
| 1.4 | Generate a comprehensive list of risks that could affect the achievement of the organisation’s objectives |
| 1.5 | Establish or review risk management policies |
| 1.6 | Evaluate the requirement for training/education for all groups and individuals |
| 1.7 | Access external specialist assistance as required |
| 1.8 | Establish appropriate risk assessment techniques |
| 1.9 | Consult stakeholders in the development of the plan |
2 | Implement risk management plan | 2.1 | Define, in consultation with stakeholders, the criteria used to evaluate the significance of risk |
| 2.2 | Evaluate and prioritise risks for treatment |
| 2.3 | Determine and select the most appropriate options for treating risks |
| 2.4 | Implement and monitor risk treatment plan |
| 2.5 | Document strategies for risk treatment options |
3 | Evaluate risk management plan | 3.1 | Establish procedures to regularly review risk management activities |
| 3.2 | Ensure stakeholders have input to the review |
| 3.3 | Examine activities that do not achieve their objective/performance outcomes to determine cause |
| 3.4 | Identify targets for improvement and update plan |
| 3.5 | Establish evaluation of risk management as a key component of all projects/activities |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and must include the ability to:
select and apply techniques to develop a risk management plan
identify and interpret information from a range of internal and external sources
communicate with a range of stakeholders to:
identify and assess impact
prioritise risks
develop and evaluate treatment options
evaluate risk management activities
evaluate organisational capability and identify training needs
plan, implement and monitor risk management activities
write reports, policies and procedures.
Must provide evidence that demonstrates knowledge relevant to their job sufficient to operate independently and to solve routine and non-routine problems, including:
regulatory framework
legal requirements for operating the business relevant to the area of responsibility
the legal implications of deeming identified risks as acceptable
internal or external audit methods
focus group processes
risk analysis processes
criteria for evaluation and prioritisation.
The unit should be assessed holistically and the judgement of competence based on a holistic assessment of the evidence.
The collection of performance evidence is best done from a report and/or folio of evidence drawn from:
a single project which provides sufficient evidence of the requirements of all the elements and performance criteria
multiple smaller projects which together provide sufficient evidence of the requirements of all the elements and performance criteria.
A third-party report, or similar, may be needed to testify to the work done by the individual, particularly when the project has been done as part of a project team.
Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
Knowledge evidence may be collected concurrently with performance evidence (provided a record is kept) or through an independent process, such as workbooks, written assessments or interviews (provided a record is kept).
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately.
As a minimum, assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015 assessor requirements.
