Overview of assessment
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Evidence of the ability to:
manage the execution of a complex IT project, including aspects of the IT solution definition and design process.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
Assessment must ensure access to:
appropriate learning and assessment support when required
modified equipment for people with special needs
real or appropriate simulated organisation with a desire to implement an IT project to address an identified problem, opportunity or unfulfilled legislative need.
Method of assessment
A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:
direct observation of the candidate carrying out project work
verbal or written questioning to assess required knowledge and skills
review of reports and implementation plans
review of a portfolio of the project work undertaken.
Note: The preferred assessment method is through a workplace project or through a simulated medium to large enterprise workplace.
Guidance information for assessment
Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, where appropriate.
Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate, and suitable to the communication skill level, language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.
Indigenous people and other people from a non-English speaking background may need additional support.
In cases where practical assessment is used it should be combined with targeted questioning to assess required knowledge.
