Since the release of the TAE10 I have heard numerous discussions on “what is a simple assessment tool”.
It is good to see the range statements from TAEASS401A Plan assessment activites and processes states
“Simple assessment – may include:
Instruments developed elsewhere that have been modified by the assessor for use with a particular client group.”
In the unit TAEASS402A Assess competence they refer to the use of specialist suppport – which could be technical specialists or the use of prewritten tools.
It is so good to see the Training package developers have recognised the use of outside resources, i.e. consultants or training material developers to assist trainers and assessors.
