Assessment Name FNSACC411 Assignment
Assessment Coversheet
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 based 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.
Declaration of Understanding and Authenticity
I acknowledge the assessment process has been explained and agree that I am ready to undertake assessment. I am aware of where to find the assessor’s feedback for the assessment. I am aware of the appeals process, should the need arise. I also understand I must be assessed as ‘satisfactory’ in all parts of the assessment/s to gain an overall competent result for the unit/s of competency. If I am found to be NS after a second attempt, it is at the assessor ‘s discretion whether I may be permitted one final attempt. I am aware that a ‘not competent’ final outcome means I may incur fees for re-enrolment in the unit/s.
