What an assessment for CPCCON3047 must cover

22 assessable components: 3 elements (13 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 8 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 Plan and prepare to cut concrete.

1.1Interpret specifications for concrete cutting and clarify requirements with relevant persons.
