What an assessment for ICPPRN3420 must cover

47 assessable components: 4 elements (17 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 18 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 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 Maintain non-routine pad printing process

1.1Check and adjust location of objects into fixtures according to manufacturer specifications and work health and safety (WHS) requirements
1.2Review and adjust printing plates and printing pad condition
1.3Check and adjust spatulas, doctor blades and ink cups as required
1.4Observe and adjust printing ink viscosity
1.5Monitor and adjust in-line loading, pre-treatment, drying and ejection systems

2 Maintain non-routine production process

2.1Use machine controls as required
2.2Monitor and verify performance using the process control system
2.3Monitor and adjust ink performance, colour, register and position
2.4Report process adjustments to eliminate problems according to enterprise procedures and quality requirements

3 Identify and rectify faults

3.1Identify and report problems in machine operation according to enterprise procedures
3.2Carry out adjustments or corrections according to specified procedures, and within scope of own role
3.3Verify repairs and adjustments as required prior to resumption of operations

4 Conduct shutdown of production process

4.1Follow shutdown sequence according to manufacturer specifications and enterprise procedures
4.2Label and store unused ink according to manufacturer specifications and enterprise procedures
4.3Remove solid and liquid waste from operating area and recycle and dispose of, as required, according to regulatory requirements and enterprise procedures
4.4Clean and disengage all required parts of machinery used in printing process according to manufacturer specifications and enterprise procedures

Performance evidence

operate a pad printing machine and produce two different jobs.
operate production process in association with fellow workers and according to enterprise procedures and planned daily schedule
follow work health and safety (WHS) requirements, manufacturer specifications and enterprise procedures
anticipate production difficulties and take preventive action to prevent occurrence.
demonstrate use of control, monitoring and data entry systems.

Knowledge evidence

WHS risks and requirements for: setting up and operating the pad printing machine; handling inks and other materials; machine shutdown; cleaning and waste disposal
material safety data sheets (MSDS), their location and what information they contain
selection criteria for machine cycle modes to improve colour density of a light image on a dark substrate
product quality requirements and control and correction methods
special cycle modes available on the machine and their application
indicators that an ink has been mixed to the required viscosity and correction methods
causes of unreleased ink remaining on the printing pad and identifying criteria
effect of a catalyst on the pot life of ink, and other factors affecting pot life
signs of a damaged pad
required cleaning method for a pad during production
effect of different pad shapes in multi-coloured printing for different colours
steps taken to determine time the ink requires to cure before scratch and adhesion tests can be performed
check for pre-treatment of polypropylene during production
procedure for ensuring required drying conditions for the product
visible effects of incorrect ink viscosity on the image
steps taken to identify the cause of incorrect registration and avoid it
regulatory requirements for recycling procedures
manufacturer manuals, enterprise procedures and work health and safety documentation, including their location and purpose.

Foundation skills

Writing: Enters routine data associated with production processes and enterprise procedures
Numeracy: Interprets and analyses a range of mathematical information used in familiar and routine tasks
Self-management: Identifies and follows explicit and implicit protocols and meets expectations associated with own role Identifies and follows all procedures for cleaning and maintenance of equipment, incorporating regulatory requirements and enterprise procedures
Teamwork: Cooperates with others as part of familiar routine activities, and contributes to specific activities requiring joint responsibility and accountability Identifies what to communicate, with whom and how, in routine work situations

Questions about assessing ICPPRN3420

What does an assessment tool for ICPPRN3420 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICPPRN3420 needs to address all 47 unit components: 4 elements with 17 performance criteria, 5 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 ICPPRN3420?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICPPRN3420 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 ICPPRN3420 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICPPRN3420 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 ICPPRN3420, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
