- Knowledge Questions
- Structured Activities
- Observation
HOW long will it take to complete?
The skills instruction sessions and validation sessions will be completed and observed by your assessor during the course of the 4 days. You will be required to complete structured activities to demonstrate your skills which includes the design of assessment plans and assessment tools and assessing individuals against nationally recognised units of competency.
You will commence these activities during the 4 days but will not have sufficient time during this period to complete all of the requirements. You will be required to complete the remaining evidence and knowledge questions over the next 4 months.
Depending upon your prior knowledge this may take you on average between 70 - 100 hours to complete in full. Experienced people with good computer skills may achieve competency in a shorter period of time.

TAEDEL301 Provide work skill instruction
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to conduct individual and group instruction, demonstrate work skills and assess the success of training and one’s own training performance, using existing learning resources in a safe and comfortable learning environment.
It emphasises the training as being driven by the work process and context, and applies to a person working under supervision as a work skill instructor in a wide range of settings not restricted to training organisations.
Performance Evidence: Deliver 3 x 15 minute skills instruction sessions to your peers and assessor (including design of session plans and planning of sessions)
TAEASS401 Plan assessment activities and processes
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to plan the assessment process, including recognition of prior learning (RPL), in a competency-based assessment system.
It applies to individuals with assessment planning responsibilities.
In planning activities and processes, individuals are required to identify the components of assessment tools, analyse and interpret assessment tools, and develop assessment instruments (also known as assessment tasks) and assessment plans.
Performance Evidence: Plan assessment process x 5 times (including design of assessment plan and contextualisation of assessment tools)
TAEASS402 Assess competence
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to implement an assessment plan, and gather quality evidence to assess the competence of a candidate using compliant assessment tools.

You must be able to demonstrate a skill that your learners can practice within a 15 minute time period. Examples of skills instruction sessions could be:
