What an assessment for UEERS0036 must cover
53 assessable components: 3 elements (21 performance criteria), 11 performance evidence and 21 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

- 1.8Cable diagrams necessary to effect repairs are obtained, read and interpreted
- 1.9Tools and cable testing devices for cable repair are obtained in accordance with workplace procedures and checked for correct operation and safety
2 Repair damaged rail signalling cables
- 2.1Work area is made safe, damaged rail signalling cable is isolated for repair and WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures for carrying out the repair/s are followed
- 2.2On-track safe working requirements are identified and applied in accordance with workplace procedures and safety management system
- 2.3Corresponding ends of broken cable core are identified by core marking and confirmed by continuity test in accordance with workplace procedures
- 2.4Cable joining kit is used to repair damaged cable following manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
- 2.5Repair to damaged cable is tested for cable core continuity insulation between cable cores and cores to earth in accordance with workplace procedures
- 2.6Cause of failed cable test is located and rectified in accordance with workplace procedures
- 2.7Existing work methods for dealing with unplanned situations are dealt with safely in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment and with the approval of an authorised person/s
- 2.8Cable repair is completed without waste of materials or damage to apparatus, the surrounding environment or services using sustainable energy practices
3 Complete rail signalling cable repairs
- 3.1WHS/OHS work completion risk control measures and workplace procedures are followed
- 3.2Work area is cleaned and made safe in accordance with workplace procedures
- 3.3On-track safe working requirements are removed in accordance with workplace procedures and safety management system
- 3.4Cable repair work, test results and relevant reports are documented and appropriate person/s notified in accordance with workplace procedures

Questions about assessing UEERS0036
What does an assessment tool for UEERS0036 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for UEERS0036 needs to address all 53 unit components: 3 elements with 21 performance criteria, 11 performance evidence requirements, 21 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 UEERS0036?
Auditori pulls the current release of UEERS0036 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 UEERS0036 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing UEERS0036 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 UEERS0036, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
