Unit/s Assessed FNSACC405 Maintain Inventory records
Assessment Name FNSACC405 Assignment
Type of assessment
This summative assessment will enable your assessor to make a judgement of competency based on the submission of your completed assessments against the requirements of the unit/s of competency in this module.
Benchmark
The assessment benchmark developed for each unit of competency is the evidence criteria used to judge the quality of performance (i.e., the assessment decision-making rules). Assessors use these benchmarks to make judgements on whether competency has been achieved and to determine if you have performed to the standard expected to meet the unit requirements.
Reasonable adjustment
Where appropriate monarch institute will allow flexibility in the way in which each unit is assessed based on the needs of an individual.
Assessment coding
Assessment of this course is established on competency-based principles:
S = Satisfactory NS = Not Satisfactory
If you fail to perform satisfactorily for the assessment in the prescribed way you may be assessed as ‘not satisfactory. You are required to be assessed as ‘satisfactory’ in all assessments for each unit of competency.
Re-assessment
Your assessment can be submitted after you have reviewed the learning materials and practiced enough to feel confident in your resubmission. You have two weeks from your last submission feedback to resubmit. You are re-assessed in only the areas where your assessor has indicated you were initially assessed as ns. It is at the assessor’s discretion to re-assess the entire assessment should an overall understanding not be demonstrated. When you are re-assessed as ‘satisfactory’ after re-submission you will achieve competency for this assessment.
