Overview of assessment | This unit of competency could be assessed through practical demonstration of assessing the viability of regeneration options for property. Targeted written (including alternative formats where necessary) or verbal questioning to assess the candidate's underpinning knowledge would provide additional supporting evidence of competence. The demonstration and questioning would include collecting evidence of the candidate's knowledge and application of ethical standards and relevant federal, and state or territory legislation and regulations. This assessment may be carried out in a simulated or workplace environment. |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to provide evidence of: assessing viability of regeneration options against specific criteria and presenting information on preferred option developing a project plan through consultation and research |
developing assessment criteria using industry benchmarks and feedback knowledge of organisation's practices, ethical standards and legislative requirements associated with assessing the viability of regeneration options for property sourcing and accessing relevant information and identifying constraints and opportunities regarding regeneration methods. | |

where assessment is for the purpose of recognition (RCC/RPL), the evidence provided will need to be current and show that it represents competency demonstrated over a period of time assessment can be through simulated project-based activity and must include evidence relating to each of the elements in this unit. In all cases activity and must include evidence relating to each of the where practical assessment is used it will be combined with targeted questioning to assess the underpinning knowledge.
