  • analyse and identify trends
  • extract and analyse statistical information in highly complex work related documents.

Note: Where a specific volume and/or frequency is not specified, evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

Evidence of the following knowledge must be demonstrated:

  • types of data and data collection methods
  • types of graphs
  • statistical measures and symbols.

Assessment Conditions

Assessment texts and tasks reflect those typically found in the workplace.

Individuals can access a broad range of support resources.

Culturally appropriate processes and techniques suited to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of individuals and the work being performed must be used.

Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements, have a sound knowledge of the ACSF and have demonstrable expertise in the vocational contextualisation and assessment of the core skill - numeracy.
