What an assessment for RIICWD507D must cover
39 assessable components: 4 elements (20 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 15 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.

Performance evidence
- locates and applies relevant legislation, documentation, policies and procedures
- implements the requirements, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient completion of detailed geotechnical works design including: accessing and interpreting plans, drawings, specifications and design briefs; accessing and interpreting Australian and other appropriate standards; accessing and interpreting engineering survey and geotechnical information; accessing and interpreting hydrological, meteorological, cultural and heritage data; accessing and interpreting geotechnical works construction materials test results; accessing and interpreting geotechnical works selection data; applying computer aided drafting design (CADD) and drafting technology; applying engineering graphical presentation techniques
- works effectively with others to undertake and complete detailed geotechnical works design that meets all the required outcomes including: complying with written and verbal reporting requirements and procedures; communicating clearly and concisely with others to receive and clarify work instructions; communicating clearly and concisely with others to coordinate work activities; providing clarification and advice to those applying the design
- demonstrates completion of detailed geotechnical designs that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including: calculate areas, volumes, densities, mass, percentages and grades; maintain design and cost records; determine geotechnical works loadings; select geotechnical works options; size geotechnical works components; select and applying appropriate construction techniques; develop and applying design plans; interpret and analysing data to recommend options; complete a detailed design of geotechnical works; prepare a cost estimate; participate in the review of the design; obtain design approval; complete and submitting design costs; review application and recommending changes
Knowledge evidence

Questions about assessing RIICWD507D
What does an assessment tool for RIICWD507D need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIICWD507D needs to address all 39 unit components: 4 elements with 20 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 15 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 RIICWD507D?
Auditori pulls the current release of RIICWD507D 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 RIICWD507D — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing RIICWD507D 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 RIICWD507D, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
