Questions about assessing ACMARM301

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ACMARM301 needs to address all 39 unit components: 3 elements with 14 performance criteria, 9 performance evidence requirements, 13 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills.

Auditori pulls the current release of ACMARM301 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 ACMARM301 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
