What an assessment for TLIS3011 must cover

45 assessable components: 5 elements (20 performance criteria), 15 performance evidence and 10 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.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Determine test requirements

1.1Location and type of test is identified
1.2Hazards are identified, risks are assessed and control measures are implemented
1.3Test site is prepared using appropriate procedures and materials
1.4Preparation processes are carried out in accordance with relevant procedures, statutory and work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements

2 Conduct ultrasonic testing using hand directed equipment

2.1Most appropriate ultrasonic test for the application is selected
2.2Testing equipment is selected and prepared in accordance with standards and/or workplace procedures
2.3Ultrasonic testing equipment is checked for proper function, maintained and stored in accordance with procedures, WHS/OHS requirements and manufacturer instructions
2.4Ultrasonic test is carried out in accordance with relevant standards, specifications and WHS/OHS requirements

3 Conduct nondestructive testing

3.1Most appropriate test for the application is selected
3.2Testing equipment is selected and prepared in accordance with standards and/or procedures
3.3Nondestructive test is carried out in accordance with relevant standards, specifications and WHS/OHS requirements

Questions about assessing TLIS3011

What does an assessment tool for TLIS3011 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for TLIS3011 needs to address all 45 unit components: 5 elements with 20 performance criteria, 15 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 TLIS3011?

Auditori pulls the current release of TLIS3011 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 TLIS3011 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing TLIS3011 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 TLIS3011, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
