What an assessment for RIIMCU312 must cover
38 assessable components: 3 elements (20 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 9 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 5 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
- conduct polymeric chemical operations in underground coal mining on at least two occasions, using at least one of the following injection resins: phenolic, polyurethane (PUR), urea silicate.
- locate and apply required legislation, documentation, policies and procedures, and confirm work activity is compliant, including: incident and emergency response requirements, polymeric chemicals labelling, transport and use requirements, safety and health documentation relating to polymeric chemical exposure, safety data sheets (SDS) requirements, site health monitoring requirements
- implement the requirements, procedures and techniques to conduct polymeric chemical operations in underground coal mining, including: checking resin supplies and coordinating replenishment with required personnel, checking and confirming resin pump calibration according to resin holding tanks, identifying, addressing and reporting potential hazards, risks and environmental issues, including those associated with self-ignition of certain types of polymeric chemicals, and identifying and implementing control measures, identifying and applying spillage response requirements, selecting and applying required personal protective equipment
- work with others to conduct polymeric chemical operations in underground coal mining in a way that meets required outcomes, including: organising work activities to meet task requirements, communicating with others to receive and clarify work instructions, complying with reporting requirements and exclusion zone procedures.
Knowledge evidence
- legislative requirements relating to polymeric chemical operations in underground coal mining
- policies, procedures and documentation required for polymeric chemical operations in underground coal mining, including those relating to: disposal requirements for excess, unwanted and out-of-date polymeric chemicals and used polymeric chemical containers, labelling, transporting, using and working in proximity to hazardous goods, including polymeric chemicals, operational and exclusion zones, safety and health documentation relating to polymeric chemical exposure, safety data sheets (SDS) requirements, site health monitoring requirements, site environmental and monitoring requirements, work health and safety
- polymeric chemical types, characteristics, technical capabilities and limitations, including: risks and hazards, volume of product injected and hole spacing

Questions about assessing RIIMCU312
What does an assessment tool for RIIMCU312 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIIMCU312 needs to address all 38 unit components: 3 elements with 20 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 9 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 RIIMCU312?
Auditori pulls the current release of RIIMCU312 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 RIIMCU312 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing RIIMCU312 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 RIIMCU312, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
