The achievement of competence will be assessed by a range of methods aiming at maximum flexibility and customization to address specific needs and learning situations: observation of ongoing activities, short formal and informal tests, presentation of portfolios, role plays, observation of group discussion. Students will undertake informal assessment on an ongoing basis.

If a student does not pass their formal competency based assessment then they have the right to be re-assessed before they commence their end of semester tests.
