Submission of assessment:
You must ensure that the completed assessment tasks are submitted along with the assessment
cover sheet:
 Your assessor will mark the submitted assessment, provide feedback to you and
complete the comments section against each task, where applicable.
 ALL tasks must be completed in legible English. It is preferred that the tasks submitted
for assessments are typed and that they are legible and clear, if handwritten.
 You must submit all assessments on or before the due date specified by the assessor as
per the training plan.
 Extensions for individual assessment tasks may be negotiated in specific circumstances
with your assessor/trainer. However, you need to provide genuine evidence
documents when seeking an extension to due date (e.g. extensions due to illness will
require a medical certificate). To arrange an extension, you must speak to your assessor
prior to the due date. Extensions must be confirmed by the trainer in writing.
 You are permitted to use dictionaries and to seek support, as required.
 Unless the assessment task specifically allows pair work or group activities such as
brainstorming, you must submit your own original work and must not copy the work of
other students. Plagiarism is unacceptable.
 You can submit your assessment tasks through the learning management system or
hand in hard copies in the class room.
Recording an assessment result:
Once the assessments have been completed, the assessor will record the assessment results
on the student assessment record sheets and LMS/student management system and all
results will be approved by the course coordinator.
Assessors will check that you have completed the student declaration prior to filling out the
assessment sheet.
Retaining assessment records:
RGIT will securely retain all completed student assessment items for each student for a period
of six months from the date on which the judgement of competence for the student was
made. RGIT will also retain sufficient data to be able to reissue AQF certification
documentation for a period of 30 years.
All assessment records submitted to the assessor for marking will be stored and retained
properly and will be uploaded to the LMS or a hard copy submitted to student administration
for filing along with the evidence.
The assessor will ensure that the student records are securely retained in accordance with
the RGIT record control policy accessible by the Student Administration Officer.

Assessment outcomes:
For unit of competency
There are two outcomes for assessments: C = Competent and NYC = Not Yet Competent
(requires more training and experience).
You will be awarded C = Competent on completion of the unit when the assessor is satisfied
that you have completed all assessments and have provided the appropriate evidence
required to meet all criteria in line with 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 RGIT Re-Assessment Policy and RGIT 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 RGIT Re-Assessment Policy and RGIT 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 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 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:
a. Be discussed and agreed to by the student.
b. Benefit the student.
c. Maintain the competency standards and course requirements as stipulated in the
training package.
d. Be reasonable to expect in a workplace.
Reasonable adjustment may consist of:
a. Providing additional time for students to complete learning and assessment tasks.
b. Presenting questions orally for students with literacy issues.
c. Asking questions in a relevant practical context.
d. Using large print material.
e. Extending the course duration.
f. 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.

Instructions for the student:
These work placement tasks will be undertaken at a work placement in an acute care
setting approved by the RGIT Placement Coordinator, ensuring it has sufficient equipment
and resources as defined in the assessment criteria for you to work as an enrolled nurse. You
will be provided with access to the workplace policies and procedures, forms and
equipment provided by the workplace (work placement venue). Assessors will liaise with the
workplace supervisors and ensure they are adequately briefed about the work placement
requirements including the tasks you are required to complete to demonstrate skills and
knowledge for each unit of competency as an enrolled nurse.
You will be required to practice under the supervision of a registered nurse and demonstrate
skills and knowledge as an enrolled nurse.
The workplace assessor will ensure that students have access to adequate equipment, policies
and procedures and are supervised by a registered nurse, who will verify you have completed
the required tasks by confirming and signing tasks recorded in the work placement logbook,
where appropriate.
Where nursing procedures/activities are directly observed, feedback will be provided
immediately after each procedure. The assessor will provide constructive feedback on
assessments within two weeks after submitting the assessment document. You may submit tasks
for each unit as you complete them and do not have to wait for the completion of their PEP.
