What an assessment for CPCCPD3022 must cover

41 assessable components: 4 elements (21 performance criteria), 7 performance evidence and 13 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 Plan and prepare.

  • 1.1Review work instructions to apply paint by brush and roller.

  • 1.3Conduct work with regard to responsibilities in heritage-listed buildings.
  • 1.4Select and fit personal protective equipment (PPE) as required for each task.
  • 1.5Inspect work site, assess hazards and apply risk controls, including required signage and barricades.
  • 1.6Identify materials appropriate to the work application, calculate quantities and prepare, handle safely and locate ready for use.
  • 1.7Select tools and equipment, check for serviceability and report any faults.

2 Prepare work area and materials.

  • 2.1Check that materials and substrate surfaces are prepared in accordance with manufacturers’ recommendations and relevant Australian Standards.
  • 2.2Protect surrounding surfaces with drop sheets, masking or removal of objects.
  • 2.3Check that where doors, windows and associated furniture are removed they are safely stacked, stored and protected.
  • 2.4Check work site to ensure provision of adequate ventilation and implementation of precautions to prevent fire and explosion.
  • 2.5Implement measures to ensure application area remains free of dust and foreign matter.
  • 2.6Mix each of oil based, water based and two pack paint, to designed proportion, consistency, specified ratio and drying time.
  • 2.7Stir paint and colours thoroughly using separate stirring sticks or other devices.

3 Apply paint with brush or roller.

  • 3.1Select brush, roller or brush/roller combination for surface profile, size of area, type of paint and finish.
  • 3.2Apply paint to achieve required level of opacity, finish, texture and sheen.

4 Clean up.

  • 4.1Clean up, meeting all legislative and workplace requirements for safety, waste disposal, materials handling and protection of the environment.
  • 4.2Clear work area, reuse or recycle materials and place waste and unwanted materials into job waste bins or rubbish stockpile.

Questions about assessing CPCCPD3022

What does an assessment tool for CPCCPD3022 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCPD3022 needs to address all 41 unit components: 4 elements with 21 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 13 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 CPCCPD3022?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCPD3022 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 CPCCPD3022 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPCCPD3022 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 CPCCPD3022, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
