What an assessment for AURTTM003 must cover

35 assessable components: 4 elements (16 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 10 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.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Prepare to undertake metal building procedures

1.1Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions
1.2Information is sourced, procedures and methods are analysed, and appropriate tools are selected for rebuilding engine components
1.3Tools and measuring equipment are selected and checked for serviceability
1.4Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed
1.5Engine component is prepared for appropriate metal application method according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements

2 Apply metal to engine component

2.1Metal application process is used to rebuild damaged engine component according to workplace procedures and safety requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures
2.2Engine component is measured to ensure compliance with specifications
2.3Metal application process is completed in readiness for further repair according to workplace procedures and safety requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures

3 Perform necessary machining to rebuild component

3.1Machining is carried out according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures
3.2Component is measured to ensure compliance with manufacturer specifications
3.3Machining operations are completed according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures, and safety and environmental requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures

4 Complete rebuild processes

4.1Component surfaces are finished to manufacturer specifications and within allowable tolerances according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures
4.2Final inspection is made to ensure finished work complies with workplace requirements
4.3Bright surfaces are treated with rust prevention solution and engine component is prepared for further process or storage according to workplace procedures
4.4Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
4.5Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Performance evidence

Foundation skills

Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
Reading skills: identify and interpret engine component specifications from workshop literature; interpret safe operating procedures for engine component rebuild machinery from operating manuals and signs.
Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation to record measurements.
Numeracy skills: interpret numerical information in manufacturer specifications, workshop literature, and machinery dials, gauges and computer readouts; use basic mathematical operations, including addition and subtraction, to: convert metric dimensions to imperial, and imperial dimensions to metric; calculate tolerances and clearances; use metric and imperial precision measuring equipment.
Planning and organising skills: select best rebuild option for the work and sequence procedure to reduce time and material wastage.

Questions about assessing AURTTM003

What does an assessment tool for AURTTM003 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURTTM003 needs to address all 35 unit components: 4 elements with 16 performance criteria, 4 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 AURTTM003?

Auditori pulls the current release of AURTTM003 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 AURTTM003 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AURTTM003 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 AURTTM003, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
