What an assessment for AVIY0045 must cover
61 assessable components: 5 elements (21 performance criteria), 24 performance evidence and 16 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 Prepare for approach
- 1.1Latest available information for destination is reviewed
- 1.2Navigation system validity check is conducted as applicable
- 1.3Receiver autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM)/satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) check is conducted as required
- 1.4Flight plan is selected, loaded, checked and activated as applicable
- 1.5Current approach chart for approach to be flown is selected and briefed
- 1.6Navigation aid required for approach is checked and confirmed as serviceable
2 Conduct initial approach
- 2.1Altimeter QNH is set correctly
- 2.2Aircraft is manoeuvred to the holding fix
3 Conduct a holding pattern
- 3.1Holding pattern is entered and performed from the holding fix
- 3.2Aircraft is flown in accordance with relevant approach procedure requirements
4 Conduct an approach
- 4.1Altimeter QNH is updated and set
- 4.2Automation is used appropriately
- 4.3Navigation aid signal integrity is monitored during approach
- 4.4Vertical and lateral flight path is flown within published tolerances
- 4.5Specified altitude check on glide slope is performed
- 4.6Aircraft is flown to a stabilised descent profile from the final approach fix to minima
- 4.7Visual reference is established and a visual circling or runway approach conducted for a landing on the selected runway
5 Conduct a missed approach
- 5.1Missed approach conditions are recognised and missed approach is initiated
- 5.2Aircraft is manoeuvred to the missed approach point (MAPt)
- 5.3Missed approach procedure is conducted in accordance with the instrument approach and landing (IAL) chart
- 5.4Obstacle clearance in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) or simulated IMC is maintained

Questions about assessing AVIY0045
What does an assessment tool for AVIY0045 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AVIY0045 needs to address all 61 unit components: 5 elements with 21 performance criteria, 24 performance evidence requirements, 16 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 AVIY0045?
Auditori pulls the current release of AVIY0045 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 AVIY0045 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AVIY0045 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 AVIY0045, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
