Questions about assessing AURPTA101

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AURPTA101?
Auditori pulls the current release of AURPTA101 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 AURPTA101 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AURPTA101 assessment instead of generating a new one?
