Using other’s expertise
An individual’s access to the assessment process should not be adversely affected
by restrictions placed on the location or context of assessment beyond the
requirements specified in the training package. Reasonable adjustments can be
made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities. Adjustments
include any changes to the assessment process or context that meet the individual
needs of the person with a disability, but do not change competency outcomes.
When assessing people with disabilities, trainer/assessors are encouraged to apply
good practice assessment methods with sensitivity and flexibility.
The assessment process must:

Provide for valid, reliable, flexible and fair assessment

Provide for judgement to be made on the basis of sufficient evidence


Offer valid, authentic and current evidence
Access and Equity
Please speak to your trainer/assessor if you require assistance with any access
and equity concerns you may have.
Recognition of Prior Learning
If you can demonstrate that you have the skills and knowledge within this unit, you
should speak to your trainer/assessor about this and apply for recognition of prior
learning.
