Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Application includes one (1) or more of the following:

fixed plant and equipment

mobile plant and equipment

marine installations

machine and process operations

Components include one (1) or more of the following:

sensors

transmitters

converters

indicators

analysers

controllers

transducers

power supplies

removable circuit boards

sensor units associated with determining/controlling density, level, flow, temperature and composition of a range of materials

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.
