What an assessment for AVIF0018 must cover
39 assessable components: 3 elements (16 performance criteria), 12 performance evidence and 11 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 Establish risk management context in BVLOS operation
- 1.1Nature and extent of aviation operational activity, its objectives and outcomes are established within the organisational context
- 1.2Strategic and risk management context are identified in accordance with organisational requirements
- 1.3Stakeholders are identified and consulted to ensure their views, concerns and needs are taken into account in the risk management process
- 1.4Criteria for assessing aviation risk are determined in accordance with workplace standards
- 1.5Risk management criteria is determined to provide guidance on balancing risk, costs, benefits and opportunities
- 1.6Risk management criteria are monitored, reviewed and adjusted to ensure opportunities, and current and emerging trends are reflected
2 Plan for risk management in BVLOS
- 2.1Sources of risks are identified and consulted to ensure full coverage
- 2.2Risks are assessed and documented in consultation with stakeholders, and risk level thresholds are established
- 2.3Risk controls are considered/modified and selected for acceptability
- 2.4Risk management plan and evaluation methodology are developed and communicated to stakeholders
3 Monitor and evaluate aviation risk in BVLOS
- 3.1Aviation risk management plan is implemented and monitored in accordance with workplace standards
- 3.2Internal and external risks to outcomes are monitored and remedial actions are identified, as required, and initiated
- 3.3Risk management plans are reviewed routinely, on occurrence of events of significant importance to the organisation and when required by regulatory practice
- 3.4Stakeholder feedback is obtained and considered in evaluation activity
- 3.5Recommendations for enhancing risk management plan are formulated and implemented
- 3.6Outcomes of evaluation are effectively communicated to stakeholders
Performance evidence
- applying effective verbal/non-verbal communication techniques when engaging with internal/external stakeholders
- applying procedures relating to work health and safety (WHS)and environment in the context of aviation risk management
- developing an aviation risk assessment, including: - likelihood criteria: - rare - unlikely - possible - likely - almost certain - consequence criteria: - negligible - minor - major - moderate - severe
- conducting aviation risk control, including hierarchy of control
- applying relevant legislation, regulations and policies, including: - relevant sections of Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASRs) and Civil Aviation Orders relating to safety management systems (SMS) and Manual of Standards (MOS) - national and state/territory WHS legislation
- delegating task responsibilities related to risk management processes
- engaging in discussion by exchanging complex oral information
- listening effectively when engaging with internal/external stakeholders
- researching and analysing the wider context affecting the aviation industry and/or organisation
- solving problems through analysis and reasoning
- explaining complex, formal documents and assisting others to apply these documents in the workplace
- using appropriate formal language and style for written plans
Knowledge evidence
- Australian and international risk management standards
- aviation risk management processes, which are: - logical and systematic - applied to any strategy plan, process, program or procedure that will enable the organisation to minimise losses and to maximise opportunities - applied within existing aviation SMS - implemented to address operational and safety factors related to: - regulatory - hardware - environmental - personnel
- diversity of risks in the aviation industry
- importance of consultation and communication at every stage of the risk management cycle
- legal requirements, legislation, regulations, policies, procedures and guidelines relating to aviation risk management
- range of evaluation methodologies
- relationship of risk to context, i.e. how the context may define the risks
- strategic and risk management context, including: - organisational functions - political - operational - financial - social - legal - commercial - various stakeholders and clients - relationship between the organisation and the environment in which it operates
- sources of risk, including: - perceived - potential - actual
- determining criteria for evaluating risk, including: - compliance with established legal requirements - consideration of cost-benefit analysis outcomes - establishment of risk rankings to determine levels of acceptability
- risk management plan for relevant BVLOS operation, including: - analysis of risks - likelihood - consequences and risk levels - control options selected - person/s responsible for implementing control options - performance measures - periodic review timetable - prioritised list of unacceptable risks - resources required - sources of risk and risk events - timeframe for implementation

Questions about assessing AVIF0018
What does an assessment tool for AVIF0018 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AVIF0018 needs to address all 39 unit components: 3 elements with 16 performance criteria, 12 performance evidence requirements, 11 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 AVIF0018?
Auditori pulls the current release of AVIF0018 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 AVIF0018 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AVIF0018 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 AVIF0018, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
