What an assessment for MEM08005 must cover

24 assessable components: 3 elements (9 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 10 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 1 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.

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, job sheets or work instructions

2 Undertake mask and jig work

  • 2.1Manufacture necessary jigs and shields, as required
  • 2.2Secure jigs and ensure masking is adherent and stable
  • 2.3Incorporate necessary auxiliary anodes and shields to specifications

3 Pre-treat and treat work

  • 3.1Use plating information and/or specifications to calculate operating times, currents and/or voltages
  • 3.2Treat work in accordance with specifications using SOPs

Performance evidence

  • following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • using and/or making jigs and shields and masking up for a variety of work pieces prior to application of specialised coatings
  • setting up auxiliary anodes and shields as necessary for the coating application
  • calculating coating parameters and pre-treating and applying coatings to meet specifications

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • reasons for pre-electroplating and post-electroplating treatment of surfaces
  • processes and techniques for masking work being electroplated and the range of materials used for masking purposes
  • procedures for securing the masking
  • procedures for mounting/setting up auxiliary electrodes and shields and reasons for using them
  • electrode position of ‘difficult’ metals such as iron and certain alloys
  • specifications and procedures of jigs and shields to be manufactured
  • procedures and formulae for calculating operating times, currents and voltages
  • specifications of surface finishes
  • procedures and specifications for pre-treating specialised coating work and for treating the work after electroplating

Questions about assessing MEM08005

What does an assessment tool for MEM08005 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM08005 needs to address all 24 unit components: 3 elements with 9 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 10 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 MEM08005?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM08005 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 MEM08005 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM08005 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 MEM08005, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
