performing at least one of the following skid steer loading tasks on each occasion (i.e. two different tasks in total):
stripping and spreading materials
backfilling
loading vehicles
excavations
mixing materials
site clean up
lifting and carrying materials
using communication methods to confirm activity, direction of travel, and process to safely move and transport load

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIIMPO335E needs to address all 71 unit components: 5 elements with 23 performance criteria, 29 performance evidence requirements, 17 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 RIIMPO335E?

Auditori pulls the current release of RIIMPO335E 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 RIIMPO335E — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing RIIMPO335E 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 RIIMPO335E, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
