What an assessment for AHCPER335 must cover
21 assessable components: 3 elements (10 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 7 knowledge evidence requirements. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.
Elements & performance criteria
1 Assess the system needs
- 1.1Undertake a needs analysis of permaculture system and its main elements
- 1.2Identify possible plant and animal combinations to suit permaculture system design
- 1.3Identify and compile a list of plants and animals to suit design parameters
2 Research plant and animal systems
- 2.1Investigate plants and animals and their varieties and breeds identified in the needs analysis
- 2.2Observe and consider changes to working system that will inform new design
- 2.3Assess availability of chosen varieties and breeds
3 Select plant and animal species for the permaculture system
- 3.1Determine combinations of plant and animal species that achieve desired permaculture system outcomes
- 3.2Ensure ancillary needs are available before establishing new plant and animal systems
- 3.3Obtain plants and animals for permaculture system
- 3.4Monitor plant and animal systems during establishment phase
Performance evidence
- assessed permaculture system needs
- investigated plant and animal suitability for new permaculture system design
- selected and acquired plant and animal species for a permaculture system and availability of their ancillary needs, including: housing, prepared ground, shelter, food source
- monitored plant and animal systems during the establishment phase
Knowledge evidence
- permaculture principles and practices related to species selection
- permaculture needs analysis, including bioregional analysis
- plant and animal species and their interactions and interrelationships, including: permaculture combinations – guilds, companions, nurse plants and animal companions; EVCs (Ecological Vegetation Classes); indigenous animals and plants; what grows or thrives locally – plants, animals, birds, insects, fish, frogs, reptiles; food, fodder and medicinal plant species suitable for chosen animals
- integrated plant and animal systems such as chicken tractors, cell grazing, aquaculture systems
- basic investigative and research techniques
- primary data sources, including: original data gathered by the researcher; local wisdom; weather observations; flora and fauna observations
- using secondary data sources, including: data provided by government departments and agencies; publications; reference books, websites and journals; official weather data

Questions about assessing AHCPER335
What does an assessment tool for AHCPER335 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AHCPER335 needs to address all 21 unit components: 3 elements with 10 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 7 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.
How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AHCPER335?
Auditori pulls the current release of AHCPER335 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.
Is the first assessment tool really free?
Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AHCPER335 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AHCPER335 assessment instead of generating a new one?
Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AHCPER335, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
