What an assessment for ICPPRN3320 must cover

84 assessable components: 5 elements (20 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 52 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Performance evidence

demonstrate use of control, monitoring and data entry systems
monitor production output and make necessary adjustments to maintain print quality on a lithographic machine while producing a complex print on two occasions.
operate production process in association with fellow workers and according to enterprise procedures and planned daily schedule
follow work health and safety (WHS) requirements, manufacturer specifications and enterprise procedures
anticipate production difficulties and take preventive action to prevent occurrence.

Knowledge evidence

enterprise and manufacturer procedures, and WHS requirements for:
setting up and operating the sheet and reel delivery and transportation systems
rewinding in the reel delivery system
handling inks and materials
cleaning parts of the machine and waste disposal
enterprise escalation procedures and required personnel
causes of:
the reel wandering and web breaking at the unwind unit
the sheet cut-off wandering
mis-register when the sheet is in the feeder
an uneven feeder stack
the web jamming up in the folder
blanket packing-creep during printing
ink lying back in the duct and ink stripping on the inking rollers
conductivity of the fountain solution changing over an eight hour shift
UV ink drying and substrate blistering
problems that arise from the following and their correction methods:
the reel being run out of centre
poorly adjusted nip rollers in rewinding and sheeting
worn suckers at the feeder suction head
gripper malfunction on sheet control and transfer
the feeder stack not being loaded levelly
excessive pressure on the slitters
dirty formers and adjusting rollers at their base
defective pins in the folder
grippers not being set as required in the machine transfer section
plates developing a crack at grip edge during a print run
blankets not being tensioned as required
excessive use of fountain solution on the plate
excessive conductivity
drying temperature being too low in the chillers or incorrect on finished product
inadequate communication within the work team
features and functions, common issues and faults and methods to resolve them for the following machine sections in all systems:
transportation
delivery
in-line processing units
printing units
the rewind unit
client communication standards and approval process for a finished product
plate storage procedures
machine problems where service personnel must be contacted and reporting procedures
labelling procedures for printed reels and their purpose
effect of machine speed on sheet delivery
difference between a “flying paster” and “zero speed” type reel-stand
visible signs of the sheet being registered in the feeder and by side lay
link between driers, set-off and marking, and use of anti-set-off powder in delivery
the enterprise personnel responsible for removing machine guards and disconnecting micro switches and its effects
disadvantages of using a closed looped system for automatic control of the printed product
available measurements besides optimum solid ink density used to assess print quality
actions required when production problems are anticipated and further processing of unacceptable printed product must be eliminated
use of completed records in final job analysis and their benefits in production of future jobs
manufacturer manuals, enterprise procedures and work health and safety documentation, including their location and purpose.

Questions about assessing ICPPRN3320

What does an assessment tool for ICPPRN3320 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICPPRN3320 needs to address all 84 unit components: 5 elements with 20 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 52 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 ICPPRN3320?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICPPRN3320 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 ICPPRN3320 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICPPRN3320 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 ICPPRN3320, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
