What an assessment for PUAFIR009 must cover
41 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 15 performance evidence and 14 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.

- 1.2Airborne intelligence system is prepared in aircraft in accordance with organisational procedures and aircraft operator and pilot requirements
- 1.3Airborne intelligence system is inspected, tested and adjusted, as required, to ensure correct operation
- 1.4Pilot is briefed on airborne intelligence mission and flight requirements
2 Operate airborne intelligence system
- 2.1Communication is maintained with pilot to ensure aircraft flies over areas specified for data collection
- 2.2Airborne intelligence system is operated in accordance with organisational procedures and manufacturers’ specifications
- 2.3Data collection and analysis techniques for mission are determined and implemented
- 2.4Digital image techniques and data formats are applied in accordance with mission requirements

Questions about assessing PUAFIR009
What does an assessment tool for PUAFIR009 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for PUAFIR009 needs to address all 41 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 15 performance evidence requirements, 14 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 PUAFIR009?
Auditori pulls the current release of PUAFIR009 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 PUAFIR009 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing PUAFIR009 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 PUAFIR009, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
