Before you commence your assessment, ensure that you have a good knowledge of the subject,
have thoroughly read your Learner Resource, and clearly understand the assessment requirements
and the expectations of the industry to which the assessment is related.
Assessments are designed to be completed using your industry/organisation, but your Registered
Training Organisation (RTO) may assist you by contextualising the unit to be completed in a
simulated workplace environment.
You will be required to demonstrate knowledge and skills which must be observed directly by your
assessor. Where the observation task may be difficult for the assessor to directly observed, a video
recording of the practical observation task must be submitted as supplementary evidence.
Verification from at least one third-party signatory, and preferably two or more witnesses is required
to confirm your demonstration of these practical knowledge and skills. These witnesses would
usually be your current or recent supervisors, or your assessor.
The practical assessment tasks may be completed using your own workplace, a simulated
environment, or a mix of both, as instructed by your assessor. To contextualise this assessment to
your industry/organisation, you may be asked by your assessor to provide additional information
based on your industry/organisation.
Instructions are given for each task. If you have questions, or unclear how to proceed, consult with
your assessor.
Records of all aspects of the assessment must be kept in your Learner Assessment Pack
The record of assessment is a legal document and must be signed, dated, and a copy stored as
required by your Registered Training Organisation (RTO).

Reasonable Adjustment
Adapted Reasonable Adjustment in teaching, learning and assessment for learners with a disability -
November 2010 - Prepared by - Queensland VET Development Centre
Reasonable adjustment in VET is the term applied to modifying the learning environment or making
changes to the training delivered to assist a learner with a disability. A reasonable adjustment can be
as simple as changing classrooms to be closer to amenities or installing a particular type of software
on a computer for a person with vision impairment.
Why make a reasonable adjustment?
We make reasonable adjustments in VET to make sure that learners with a disability have:
 The same learning opportunities as learners without a disability, and
 The same opportunity to perform and complete assessments as those without a disability.
Reasonable adjustment applied to participation in teaching, learning and assessment activities can
include:
 Customising resources and assessment activities within the training package or accredited
course
 Modifying the presentation medium
 Learner support
 Use of assistive/adaptive technologies
 Making information accessible both before enrolment and during the course
 Monitoring the adjustments to ensure learners needs continue to be met
Assistive/Adaptive Technologies
Assistive/Adaptive technology means ‘software or hardware that has been specifically designed to
assist people with disabilities in carrying out daily activities’ (World Wide Web Consortium - W3C). It
includes screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition software, alternative keyboards, devices for
grasping, visual alert systems, digital note-takers.
IMPORTANT:
Reasonable adjustment made for collecting learner assessment evidence must not impact on the
standard expected by the workplace, as expressed by the relevant unit(s) of competency. For
example, if the assessment were gathering evidence of the learner’s competency in writing,
allowing the learner to complete the assessment verbally would not be a valid assessment
method. The method of assessment used by any reasonable adjustment must still meet the
competency requirements.

Contextualisation of Assessments by RTOs


Contextualisation is the process of modifying assessment tools to make learning more meaningful
for your learners and their employers.
Precision Group (Australia) recommends that your RTO contextualise the assessment tools to suit

Part 1 Case Study Overview

Welcome to Bounce Fitness

You are the centre manager for Bounce Fitness Cairns. There are two teams of fitness trainers that
directly report to you, Team A and Team B, with two members in each team. As the centre
manager, you are in charge of overseeing this branch’s performance, including the performance of
all its employees.
Fitness trainers of Team A handle one-on-one classes with their clients. The special feature of
these classes is that each training plan is catered specifically to each client’s needs and
capabilities. These trainers are in charge of creating training plans that are appropriate for each of
their clients. They also keep track of their clients’ fitness records which helps them adjust training
plans depending on their clients’ progress.
Fitness trainers of Team B handle the different fitness classes that Bounce Fitness. Each class has
an attendance of 10 to 25 clients. As part of handling group classes, Team B fitness trainers must
be knowledgeable on proper exercise and nutrition should their clients ask them for advice.
To help improve your employees’ performance, you decide to see how well members of each
team know their tasks. Based on your findings, you intend to organise learning opportunities to
help the fitness trainers perform better.

Part 2 Case Study Overview

Bounce Fitness Systems

You’ve reviewed that the task of each team allows them to practice their critical and creative
thinking skills. You want to ensure that these skills are supported by the current systems Bounce
Fitness has in place. You are aware that most of Bounce Fitness’s systems have not been reviewed
or updated for a while now. You decide that this would be a good time to look over the systems
and check for necessary changes or updates to make to improve Bounce Fitness’s processes.
You choose two systems to review that would be applicable to both your teams:
The first system is the Performance Management System. Bounce Fitness’ performance
management system puts into place an annual review for all employees. The organisation uses a
forced ranking system for its employees. In this system, there is a set percentage that tells how
many employees can be classified for each group.
Each employee’s performance is reviewed against their key performance indicators (KPIs). These
KPI differ per employee, depending on their role and responsibilities.
The second system is the Customer Relations Management System. This system contains a
process to handle client complaints. Clients are encouraged to fill out a complaint form for
documentation. These forms are then forwarded to the concerned department to be resolved. If
clients are becoming emotional enough that they might be disrupting others, employees may
offer the client with a $10.00 gift card to Bounce Fitness services as an apology for the
inconvenience.
Bounce Fitness employees are also encouraged to recommend the product or service of the
month to their clients. This is to introduce them to new products and services that the clients
might be interested in.

Part 3 Case Study Overview

Workplace Problems

In the past few days, you have noticed the following workplace problems happening in your
branch of Bounce Fitness, Bounce Fitness Cairns:

Impatient Clients
One of your personal fitness trainer’s clients has expressed their lack of interest in the current
exercises they are performing because they are not seeing immediate weight loss results. They
have requested that their personal fitness trainer change some of the exercises that is currently
part of his training plan. The fitness trainer has approached you and the rest of Team A for help as
this is the third time the client has asked that their training plan be changed. The other members
of Team A have also experienced clients who become impatient when they do not see immediate
results.

Trendy Classes
You notice that there are less clients attending the different in-house group classes offered by
Bounce Fitness. The current classes being offered are aerobic classes, circuit classes, and dance
classes. These classes have been offered to clients for more than a year now. When you asked one
of the Team B fitness instructors to ask their clients, the response they received was that it might
be because the classes were not ‘trendy’ enough. You realise that now would be a good time to
introduce a new class to your clients.
