What an assessment for CPPSPS3002 must cover

65 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 6 performance evidence and 42 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 5 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 Plan and prepare to perform basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations.

  • 1.1Review and clarify task to perform basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations.
  • 1.2Confirm measurement requirements and select method for achieving required result.
  • 1.3Select measuring and calculating equipment and check for accuracy.

2 Perform basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations.

  • 2.1Obtain and check basic measurements using established work practices, measuring equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) to ensure safety and security of self, others and property.
  • 2.2Record basic measurements using appropriate measurement units.
  • 2.3Convert measurement values into different measurement units.
  • 2.4Perform and check basic calculations using online or electronic calculators and record results.
  • 2.5Interpret results of basic calculations to solve problems relating to swimming pool and spa servicing.
  • 2.6Clean measuring equipment and materials, check for serviceability and calibrate and store.
  • 2.7Minimise environmental impact of basic measurement and calculation activities and dispose of waste following workplace procedures.

3 Interpret basic mathematical information.

  • 3.1Recognise and interpret information represented in graphs, symbols, diagrams and pictures to complete workplace tasks.
  • 3.2Review limitations and risks associated with using inaccurate basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations.

Performance evidence

  • at each of two different locations, measure and calculate:
  • the dimensions, area, perimeter and volume of each of one regular and one irregular shaped swimming pool or spa with sloped floors
  • water loss in one swimming pool or one spa
  • the quantity of pool chemicals required to improve water quality in one swimming pool or spa
  • flow and turnover rates and time taken to fill and empty one swimming pool or spa
  • In doing this, the person must meet the performance criteria for this unit.

Knowledge evidence

  • requirements and application of jurisdictional work health and safety (WHS) and environmental legislation and regulations relating to performing basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations, including safety data sheets (SDSs)
  • workplace requirements for undertaking all aspects of performing basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations,
  • selection and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) when performing basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations
  • hazards, risks and enterprise safety procedures associated with measurements undertaken on site
  • uses and limitations of measuring equipment, including:
  • bucket
  • calculator
  • ruler, including laser ruler
  • measuring flask
  • scales
  • stopwatch
  • tape measure
  • trundle wheel
  • taking basic measurements in the swimming pool and spa industry, including units of measurement, types and functions of measuring equipment
  • basic measurement requirements, including for:
  • flow rates
  • swimming pool or spa chemical quantities
  • swimming pool or spa dimensions
  • temperatures
  • methods for conversion of units of measurement, including:
  • distance units of measurement:
  • metric conversions
  • metric to imperial units of measurement and vice versa
  • surface area units of measurement:
  • metric conversions
  • metric to imperial units of measurement and vice versa
  • volume units of measurement:
  • metric conversions
  • metric to imperial units of measurement and vice versa
  • weight units of measurement:
  • metric conversions
  • metric to imperial units of measurement and vice versa
  • processes for taking basic measurements, including for calculating areas, perimeters and volumes of regular and irregular shapes relevant to measuring swimming pools and spas, such as rectangles, squares, cubes, circles, semi-circles, triangles, trapeziums and cylinders
  • conversion of measurement units used in the swimming pool and spa industry, including: metric system conversions, metric to imperial conversion and vice versa
  • graphical representations of mathematical information used in basic swimming pool and spa measurements and calculations, including diagrams, graphs, pictures and symbols
  • water loss in swimming pools and spas, including:
  • evaporation
  • plumbing and shell leaks
  • user splash-outs and drag-outs
  • planned dilution, including:
  • total dissolved solids (TDSs) levels
  • user loads.

Foundation skills

  • reading skills: interpret task documentation; interpret information in symbols, diagrams, pictures, packaging labels and safety data sheets (SDSs) e.g. for dosing rates
  • writing skills: record swimming pool and spa measurements and results of basic calculations
  • numeracy skills: perform basic measurements and calculations and to record quantities of chemicals
  • oral communication skills: use questioning to identify and confirm requirements
  • technology skills: use measurement equipment and online or electronic calculators

Questions about assessing CPPSPS3002

What does an assessment tool for CPPSPS3002 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPPSPS3002 needs to address all 65 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 6 performance evidence requirements, 42 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 CPPSPS3002?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPPSPS3002 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 CPPSPS3002 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPPSPS3002 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 CPPSPS3002, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
