Overview of assessment 

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit 

Evidence of the ability to:

  • prepare a coherent body of professional creative work for public presentation
  • participate professionally in the presentation planning, promotion and organisational process
  • evaluate presentation in terms of implications for future practice.

Context of and specific resources for assessment 

Assessment must ensure:

  • access to a public presentation site (physical or virtual)
  • interaction with others as a part of the presentation planning and organisational process.

Method of assessment 

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

  • evaluation of a public presentation of the candidate’s work
  • evaluation of reports prepared by the candidate detailing processes undertaken, challenges encountered and how they were addressed
  • questioning and discussion about candidate’s intentions and the work outcome
  • review of portfolios of evidence
  • review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners.

Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties, such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).

Guidance information for assessment 

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.
