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 logging in to the Learning
Management System at any time or you can request a copy of your records by contacting the
student administration and the assessor.

Support:
You may seek clarification about the assessment information and the instructions and tasks at
any time from the assessor.

Reasonable adjustments and special learning needs:


RGIT Australia works to ensure that students with recognised 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.
Any adjustments made must:
 be discussed, agreed and documented in the assessment record
 benefit the student
 maintain the integrity of the competency standards and course requirements as stipulated
in the training package
 be reasonable to expect in a workplace.

Reasonable adjustment may consist of:


 providing additional time for students to complete learning and assessment tasks
 presenting questions orally for students with literacy issues
 asking questions in a relevant practical context
 using large print material
 extending the course duration
 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 assessment. If the assessment activities might impact on your safety or that of others, the
assessor will stop the assessment immediately.

Plagiarism, cheating and assessment dishonesty:


RGIT considers plagiarism and cheating as a serious misdemeanor. Evidence of plagiarism 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 RGIT’s Assessment Policy.

Assessor feedback:
Assessors will provide feedback on the assessment that you have submitted. This can identify
your strengths and weaknesses or be an overall comment on your submission. A copy of the
feedback along with your submission will be given to you and you must keep a copy of it
throughout the completion of the course.
