What an assessment for CPCCWP5006 must cover

133 assessable components: 4 elements (21 performance criteria), 21 performance evidence and 91 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.

1.1Determine scope of survey in consultation with stakeholders, reports and project brief, building works or structural specifications.
1.2Gather and review design specifications and data sheets, manufacturers’ information, drawings and waterproofing contractors’ scopes of work.
1.3Assess site environmental conditions according to approved plans, including surface and sub-surface drainage.
1.4Confirm design complies with National Construction Code (NCC) performance requirements and Australian Standards.
1.5Determine tools, equipment and relevant technologies required for the survey according to site conditions.
1.6Develop the scope for the survey, including installation stages and compliance review.

2 Carry out survey.

2.1Establish stage inspection protocols and benchmarks for compliance with design and manufacturers’ specifications.
2.2Communicate survey procedures and timeframe in consultation with stakeholders.
2.3Conduct quality assurance inspections of the waterproofing systems, including substrate assessment for suitability, component installation and compliance with manufacturers’ specifications.
2.4Identify latent conditions outside of the waterproofing system design.
2.5Determine if installation complies with design requirements and manufacturers’ specifications.
2.6Record observations of survey of waterproofing systems for analysis.

3 Analyse survey report findings and make recommendations.

3.1Review report findings and confirm installation complies with manufacturer’s specifications, Australian Standards and NCC performance requirements.
3.2Identify and document any non-compliance regarding installation and deviation from design.
3.3Develop recommendations for remediation of non-compliances and any defects.
3.4Develop recommendations to remediate the latent conditions to assist with the remediation advice.
3.5Develop a report summary and quality control recommendations for stakeholders.

4 Evaluate survey findings and communicate recommendations.

4.1Review survey findings against waterproofing systems design.
4.2Review and confirm remediation of non-compliances and defects, including latent conditions.
4.3Review survey results to accommodate use of area at the highest risk level.
4.4Communicate survey findings and any recommendations to stakeholders.

Performance evidence

The candidate must develop one (1) survey report for each of the below:
an internal wet area
an external above ground area
a below ground system
a remedial waterproofing system.
The survey report must include a stage inspection or hold point report and final inspection report.
The candidate must also provide a review of documentation or specifications for each waterproofing system above.
One (1) or more of the survey reports must identify a latent condition and must include recommendations for a resolution of the latent condition.
The survey reports must include:
parameters of survey in accordance with stakeholders’ brief
classification of wet areas
assessment of waterproofing design against compliance with National Construction Code (NCC) performance requirements, Australian Standards, building design and use of area
site conditions at the time of survey
provision of stage inspection protocols and benchmarks for compliance with design and manufacturers’ specifications
methodical collation of observations from survey
review of observations against compliance of design and manufacturers’ specifications
recommendations for remediation of defects and confirming compliant installation practices
identify latent conditions outside of systems design
recommendations to remediate the latent conditions to assist with the remediation advice
provision of remedial scope and timeframe for remedial works to completion in accordance with survey report
review of survey findings and recommendations against waterproofing design.

Questions about assessing CPCCWP5006

What does an assessment tool for CPCCWP5006 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCCWP5006 needs to address all 133 unit components: 4 elements with 21 performance criteria, 21 performance evidence requirements, 91 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 CPCCWP5006?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPCCWP5006 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 CPCCWP5006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPCCWP5006 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 CPCCWP5006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
