What an assessment for CUADES301 must cover
28 assessable components: 3 elements (11 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 5 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 8 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.

- 3.6Present and store work samples as required for future use
Performance evidence
- communicate at least two different ideas using colour.
- research information on colour and colour theory to inform work
- develop ideas through experimentation with different colours and techniques.
- review completed work and gain feedback on the effectiveness of the way colour has been used.
Knowledge evidence
- colour attributes and colour relationships related to communicating ideas
- colour theories and their application in different contexts
- limitations of colour theory
- materials, tools and equipment required to experiment with colour
- ways other practitioners use colour in communicating ideas.

- Writing: Produces different text types using applicable vocabulary, grammatical structure and conventions Applies basic referencing and sequencing of professional and archival resources
- Oral Communication: Presents ideas, asks questions and listens, seeks feedback and generates ideas
- Numeracy: Selects and uses mathematical information for measurement and volume
- Self-management: Takes some personal responsibility for adherence to legal and regulatory requirements with specific reference to safety Takes responsibility for routine low-impact decisions within familiar situations
- Planning and organising: Plans, sequences and implements tasks required to achieve outcomes
- Initiative and enterprise: Evaluates decisions on how well they meet stated goals Contributes to design of new approaches within immediate work environment

Questions about assessing CUADES301
What does an assessment tool for CUADES301 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CUADES301 needs to address all 28 unit components: 3 elements with 11 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 5 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 CUADES301?
Auditori pulls the current release of CUADES301 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 CUADES301 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing CUADES301 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 CUADES301, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
