ASSESSMENT AND COURSE COMPLETION FOR VET SUBJECTS

Competency- based Assessment:

Students in these courses work to develop the competencies, skill and knowledge described by each unit of competency. To be assessed as competent a student must demonstrate that they effectively carry out tasks to industry standard through the successful completion of RTO mandated cluster tasks and project based learning. Students will be progressively assessed as ‘competent’ or ‘not yet competent’ in individual units of competency.

In order for course completion students must also complete 35 hours of mandatory work placement.

Depending on the achievement of units of competency, the possible qualification outcome is a Certificate II in Agriculture AHC20116 or a Statement of Attainment towards a Certificate II in Agriculture AHC20116.

Schools may schedule exam items in preparation for the HSC. These do not form part of the RTO assessment requirements.

The assessment components in this course are competency based. This means that students need to demonstrate that they have gained and can apply the specific knowledge and skills of each unit of competency. Competency assessment is graded as “not yet competent” or “competent’. In some cases other descriptive words may be used leading up to “competent”. A course mark is not allocated.
