What an assessment for MEM05002 must cover

27 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 7 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 Determine job requirements

  • 1.1Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
  • 1.2Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
  • 1.3Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
  • 1.4Identify job requirements from specifications, sketches, job sheets or work instructions

2 Prepare and solder materials/devices

  • 2.1Prepare material/device to specification
  • 2.2Clean materials/devices to specifications using appropriate materials and SOPs
  • 2.3Mount material/device to specifications using appropriate tools and techniques
  • 2.4Undertake necessary techniques to protect materials/devices from heat damage
  • 2.5Handle printed circuit boards, assemblies and components in such a way as to prevent electrostatic discharge or mechanical damage
  • 2.6Undertake soldering using correct and appropriate techniques including appropriate use of flux

3 Test/inspect soldered joints

  • 3.1Carry out test/inspection using appropriate techniques and equipment to ensure compliance with specifications
  • 3.2Carry out rework/repair, where required, and inspect/test to meet specifications

Performance evidence

  • following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • planning to solder by selecting appropriate and tools and hold, setting up and/or mounting device/component to specifications using appropriate techniques
  • handling printed circuit boards, assemblies and components to prevent electrostatic discharge or mechanical damage
  • undertaking high- level soldering
  • preventing of damage through electrostatic discharge or other means using appropriate techniques
  • inspecting/testing soldered joints visually and, where required, mechanically and electrically to ensure compliance with specifications and recording the results
  • reworking/repairing faulty joints to specification, including desoldering.

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • cleaning solutions and properties and cleaning procedures
  • methods of joint preparation

Questions about assessing MEM05002

What does an assessment tool for MEM05002 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM05002 needs to address all 27 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 MEM05002?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM05002 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 MEM05002 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM05002 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 MEM05002, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
