Recap!
A TNA is the method of determining if a training need exists
and if it does, what training is required to fill the gap.
Much of the TNA process is about asking questions and
getting answers
Performing a TNA requires seven steps, which build on
each other.
Costing the performance problem and comparing training
costs is an important part of the TNA report

and making judgments about whether competency
has been achieved to confirm that an individual can
perform to the standard expected in the workplace
as expressed in the relevant industry-endorsed
competency standards, or the learning outcomes of
an accredited course.

Why assess?
However,
in VET (vocational education and training),
under the AQTF (Australian Quality Training Framework),
only RTOs (Registered Training Organisations)
can issue nationally recognised qualifications
and Statements of Attainment
Assessment by RTOs
Definition
AQTF means the nationally agreed quality
arrangements for the VET system
Assessment by RTOs
http://www.training.sa.gov.au
Assessment by non-RTOs
This type of organisation can have their own policies,
practices and benchmarks but cannot provide nationally
recognised training.

Validity Reliability
Fairness Flexibility
An assessor has been working in the mining industry for 25 years, and
conducting various assessments for the last ten. Recently he has become
involved in CBT assessment of new recruits after they have undergone some
training.
He believes that every assessment conducted should include some written
material, as good literacy is vital in performing a job well. He insists that all
candidates either answer some written questions or write a short paper on
the area of competency no matter what it is.

David telephones his assessor, Rosie, to let her know he is ready to be assessed. Rosie and David
discuss the details, when, where and how the assessment will be conducted, what evidence will be
required and how the evidence will be gathered. Rosie contacts David's employer straight away to
arrange the time away from work and the environment for assessment. Then she gets the unit of
competency to be assessed and begins interpreting the standard for assessment. She asks herself
what evidence is required to demonstrate competence and takes notes, designs a checklist and
writes some questions she will ask him.
She visualises the assessment event and what tools, resources, or people might be required to help
it run smoothly.
The following day Rosie discusses the upcoming assessment with a colleague as she has not
assessed this unit for a while. They talk about the tools to use, the type of person David is, the work
environment and so on. Rosie then organises the recording system she will use, gets the relevant
documentation together, and checks to ensure she has everything. When Rosie arrives at David's
office, David and his employer meet her and they discuss David's progress through his training.
Rosie and David undertake the assessment and David is found to be competent.
When Rosie arrives back at her office, she files the assessment checklist with a copy of the
assessment instrument. This can be used at the end of the month when the organisation is
evaluating their assessors for quality.
