Assessment outcomes:
For unit of competency:
There are two outcomes for assessments: C = Competent and NYC = Not Yet Competent (requires
more training and experience).
You will be awarded C = Competent on completion of the unit when the assessor is satisfied that you
have completed all assessments and have provided the appropriate evidence required to meet all
criteria in line with the Rules of Evidence. If you fail to meet this requirement, you will receive the
result NYC = Not Yet Competent and will be eligible to be re-assessed in accordance with the Altec
College Re-Assessment Policy and Altec College Course Progress Policy.
There are two assessment outcomes for tasks. S = Satisfactory and NS = Not Satisfactory.
On the individual assessment cover sheet for assessment tasks, you will be marked Satisfactory, if you
have completed the task successfully, submitted all evidence and satisfied the assessment criteria and
Not Satisfactory, if you have not completed the task, the evidence is not sufficient or does not meet
the requirements of the assessment criteria.
Re-assessment:
If you are unsuccessful at achieving competency at the first attempt, you will be given two further
opportunities for re-assessment at a mutually agreed time and date. For further details, refer to the
Altec College Re-Assessment Policy and Altec College Course Progress Policy. As this is a competency-
based program, the assessment continues throughout the program until you either achieve
Competency in the assessment tasks or a further training need is identified and addressed.
Student access to records:
You have the right to access current and accurate records of your participation and results at any
time. You can see your results or attendance progress by requesting a copy of your records by
contacting the student administration and the assessor.
Altec College works to ensure that students with recognized disadvantages can access and
participate in education and training on the same basis as other students. Disadvantages may be
based, for example, upon age, cultural background, physical disability, limited or non-current
industry experience, language, numeracy or digital literacy issues.
Where pre-training interviews and assessments reveal that a student may require special support or
where, after enrolment, it is made apparent that the student requires special support, reasonable
adjustments will be made to the learning environment, training delivery, learning resources and/or
assessment tasks to accommodate the particular needs of the student. An adjustment is reasonable
if it can accommodate the student’s particular needs, while also taking into account factors such as
the student’s views, the potential effect of the adjustment on the student and others and the costs
and benefits of making the adjustment.
a. Providing additional time for students to complete learning and assessment tasks.
b. Presenting questions orally for students with literacy issues.
c. Asking questions in a relevant practical context.
d. Using large print material.
e. Extending the course duration.
f. Presenting work instructions in diagrammatic or pictorial form instead of words and sentences.
Complaints and appeals:
If you are dissatisfied with an assessment outcome, you may appeal the assessment decision. In the
first instance, you are encouraged to appeal informally by contacting the assessor and discussing the
matter with them. If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of such discussion, you may appeal
further to either the course coordinator and/or Head of Department. If you are still dissatisfied, you
may appeal formally and in writing to have the result reviewed. For more information, refer to the
Assessment Policy and the Complaints and Appeals Policy and Procedures.
Assessor intervention:
Assessors will check if you are ready for the assessment, and defer the assessment if you are not.
Feedback will be given to you at the completion of the assessment. During role play, the assessor
may act as a client or employer, where required, but the assessor will not interfere with the

and cheating is treated on a case-by-case basis and the consequences for students engaging in such
practices may include failure of the assessment or unit or exclusion from the course. For more
information, refer to Altec College’s Assessment Policy.
