What an assessment for AURVTW006 must cover
31 assessable components: 3 elements (16 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 8 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 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 weld
- 1.1Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions
- 1.2Welding information is accessed and interpreted
- 1.3Materials for thermoplastic welding are selected and inspected for quality
- 1.4Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed
- 1.5Thermoplastic welding tools and equipment and PPE are selected and checked for serviceability
- 1.6Work is planned to minimise waste and use time efficiently
2 Carry out thermoplastic welding activities
- 2.1Work area and fume extraction system are prepared ready for thermoplastic welding
- 2.2Thermoplastic welding equipment is set up and adjusted for specific job requirement following vehicle manufacturer specification
- 2.3Reinforcement methods are applied to ensure pre-damage strength
- 2.4Thermoplastic welding equipment is used according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements
- 2.5Thermoplastic weld is finished to pre-paint condition and completed without causing damage to vehicle or components
- 2.6Completed thermoplastic weld is inspected for quality and faults are identified and rectified as required and according to workplace procedures
3 Complete work processes
- 3.1Final inspection is made to ensure work meets workplace expectations and component is presented ready for use
- 3.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected and stored
- 3.3Tools and equipment are checked, reported if faulty, and stored according to workplace procedures
- 3.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures
Performance evidence
- carry out thermoplastic welding procedures on three different vehicle trim components, in which the work must involve: two different types of thermoplastics; one weld to a minimum of 50 mm in length.
Knowledge evidence
- work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to carrying out thermoplastic welding on vehicle trim components, including procedures for: selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE); using safety data sheets (SDS) for thermoplastics; manually handling vehicle components and welding equipment; using tools and equipment; using fume extraction equipment; environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of waste materials
- vehicle manufacturer thermoplastic specifications
- type and use of fume extraction systems
- types and characteristics of plastics used in thermoplastic welding
- types and operation of thermoplastic welding equipment, including: set-up; operation
- methods and techniques for thermoplastic welding
- procedures for protecting vehicle and components during weld
- procedures for final inspection of thermoplastic weld
Foundation skills
- Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
- Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation.
- Oral communication skills: clarify instructions and procedures; clearly report quality issues and job outcomes.
- Numeracy skills: use basic mathematical operations, including addition and subtraction, to: calculate weld time; calculate thermoplastic welding measurements; mark out thermoplastic weld on trim material; calculate quantities of required materials; set and adjust thermoplastic welder settings.
- Planning and organising skills: plan own work requirements and prioritise actions to achieve required outcomes and ensure tasks are completed within workplace timeframes.
- Technology skills: use specialist thermoplastic welding equipment.

Questions about assessing AURVTW006
What does an assessment tool for AURVTW006 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURVTW006 needs to address all 31 unit components: 3 elements with 16 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 AURVTW006?
Auditori pulls the current release of AURVTW006 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 AURVTW006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AURVTW006 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 AURVTW006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
