satisfactory (S), unsatisfactory (U), or did not submit (DNS).

Students should only redo questions that are incorrect; however, they will need to resubmit the entire
assessment.
Plagiarism, cheating and collusion.

Where a trainer/assessor believes there has been an incident of academic misconduct involving plagiarism,
cheating, and/or collusion, they should report this along with reasons for the allegation. Assessors should refer

Record the result for each task and the final result for the unit as C (Competent) or NYC (Not YetCompetent).
There is also a space to give the student some written feedback for the overall unit.
Sign and date the middle section and give the sheet to the student. After discussing their results with them, the
student must fill out and sign the final section of the Record, where they acknowledge the result that you have
given them.
When the student has filled out the final section of the Final Results Record, make a copy for them and retain

8 document.

ABN No: 40 602 418 815
1. Font size and type: font choices affect
readability. 12.5-point or 13-point font makes text more comfortable to read. Serif fonts
have the little tails on each letter. Typographers say these help the eye “read” a group of
letters as words and not individual phonemes.
2. Line spacing: articles are usually single-spaced while double spacing facilitates editing,
adding only a little more space to single spacing makes a more comfortably readable text.
