the Rules of Evidence. If you fail to meet this requirement, you will receive the result NYC = Not Yet
Competent and will be eligible to be re-assessed in accordance with the Altec College Re-Assessment
Policy and Altec College Course Progress Policy.

For assessment task:

There are two assessment outcomes for tasks. S = Satisfactory and NS = Not Satisfactory.
On the individual assessment cover sheet for assessment tasks, you will be marked Satisfactory, if you
have completed the task successfully, submitted all evidence and satisfied the assessment criteria and
Not Satisfactory, if you have not completed the task, the evidence is not sufficient or does not meet the
requirements of the assessment criteria.

Re-assessment:
If you are unsuccessful at achieving competency at the first attempt, you will be given two further
opportunities for re-assessment at a mutually agreed time and date. For further details, refer to the
Altec College Re- Assessment Policy and Altec College Course Progress Policy. As this is a competency-
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 requesting 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:


Altec College works to ensure that students with recognized 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:

e. Extending the course duration.

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:

Altec College considers plagiarism and cheating as a serious misdemeanour. 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 Altec College’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.
