Questions about assessing DEFPOL002
What does an assessment tool for DEFPOL002 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for DEFPOL002 needs to address all 40 unit components: 3 elements with 11 performance criteria, 13 performance evidence requirements, 16 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for DEFPOL002?
Auditori pulls the current release of DEFPOL002 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?
