Questions about assessing HLTTCM001

What does an assessment tool for HLTTCM001 need to cover?

Auditori pulls the current release of HLTTCM001 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?

Can I check my existing HLTTCM001 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 HLTTCM001, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
