What an assessment for CPCCJS3002 must cover
53 assessable components: 7 elements (23 performance criteria), 9 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

- 1.6Select materials required for task, calculate quantities, handle safely and prepare and position ready for use.
2 Prepare stringers.
- 2.1Set-out stringers for treads and risers with nosing marked accurately and housings cut to set-out and depth.
- 2.2Apply grooves or mortises to receive balusters to set-out.
- 2.3Cut stringers to set-out shape and mark to accommodate treads and risers and junction with newels or landing.
3 Prepare newel posts.
- 3.1Cut and make housings to newel post set-out and required depth.
- 3.2Cut mortises to set-out and required depth, and mark newel posts for identification.
4 Prepare treads, risers and wedges.
- 4.1Cut treads to specified length and shape.
- 4.2Cut risers to designed length, shape and quantity, and apply markings for junctions, stringers and wedges.

Questions about assessing CPCCJS3002
What does an assessment tool for CPCCJS3002 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCJS3002 needs to address all 53 unit components: 7 elements with 23 performance criteria, 9 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 CPCCJS3002?
Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCJS3002 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 CPCCJS3002 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing CPCCJS3002 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 CPCCJS3002, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
