What an assessment for CPPSSI6035 must cover
41 assessable components: 3 elements (14 performance criteria), 9 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.
Elements & performance criteria
1 Plan and prepare for complex engineering set-out survey.
- 1.1Analyse survey set-out specifications, including cross-sections and plans, and technical descriptions of surveying data.
- 1.2Determine constraints, work activities, technologies and techniques to be used for set-out according to project specifications and client requirements.
- 1.3Identify any special equipment or resource requirements according to characteristics of the operating environment.
- 1.4Devise and apply risk management and contingency strategies to ensure project complies with legislative requirements, industry standards and organisational requirements.
- 1.5Determine safe work requirements, including use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
- 1.6Select and check surveying equipment to ensure correct operation and functionality according to manufacturer specifications.
2 Manage complex engineering set-out survey.
- 2.1Set out identified project components accurately according to project specifications.
- 2.2Conduct, validate and record set-out measurements and calculations using control network according to project specifications.
- 2.3Liaise and collaborate with relevant persons.
- 2.4Review project progress and implement agreed changes for consistency with project scope and timeframes.
- 2.5Resolve problems and implement contingencies according to organisational requirements.
3 Finalise complex engineering set-out survey.
- 3.1Finalise and check project for compliance with project and organisational requirements.
- 3.2Notify appropriate persons of project results according to organisational requirements.
- 3.3Complete documentation and archive spatial data according to project and organisational requirements.
Performance evidence
- To demonstrate competency a candidate must meet the elements and performance criteria of this unit by conducting two different complex engineering set-out surveys.
- For each complex engineering set-out survey, the candidate must:
- conduct set-out measurements and calculations to meet engineering specifications using two of the following pieces of surveying equipment:
- current meter
- global navigation satellite system (GNSS)
- level
- tape
- theodolite
- total station.
Knowledge evidence
- legislative requirements, and industry standards relating to engineering set-out surveys
- set-out considerations for:
- civil works, including roads and pipelines
- buildings, including curved structures and footings
- cul-de-sacs
- methods for setting up, levelling and calibrating surveying equipment
- data capture, set-out and reduction techniques
- graphical and technical information in engineering plans
- accuracy and precision requirements for setting out surveying data
- methods for calculating surveying data and verifying its accuracy using primary and secondary controls
- industry-accepted methods for validating data to identify errors and discrepancies
- methods for establishing a control network that meets specified tolerances
- organisational policies and procedures relating to:
- work health and safety (WHS) relating to surveying activities
- reporting and documentation
- using and allocating resources
- using surveying equipment
- reference and coordinate systems for surveying data, including Australian Height Datum and Map Grid of Australia.

Questions about assessing CPPSSI6035
What does an assessment tool for CPPSSI6035 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPPSSI6035 needs to address all 41 unit components: 3 elements with 14 performance criteria, 9 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 CPPSSI6035?
Auditori pulls the current release of CPPSSI6035 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 CPPSSI6035 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing CPPSSI6035 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 CPPSSI6035, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
