What an assessment for CPCCCA3007 must cover
46 assessable components: 4 elements (23 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 18 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.

Questions about assessing CPCCCA3007
What does an assessment tool for CPCCCA3007 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCCA3007 needs to address all 46 unit components: 4 elements with 23 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 18 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 CPCCCA3007?
Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCCA3007 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 CPCCCA3007 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing CPCCCA3007 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 CPCCCA3007, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
