What an assessment for ICTRFN402 must cover
27 assessable components: 3 elements (11 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 6 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 Prepare to select antenna system
- 1.1Establish extent of project from design brief or specification within team environment
- 1.2Obtain and review plans and drawings of existing or proposed installation site
- 1.3Determine whether antenna system hardware requires secure hut or shelter
- 1.4Determine antenna requirements and antenna feedline requirements from design brief or specifications, and research available commercial products
- 1.5Determine earthing components to meet regulatory and earthing requirements of antenna system
- 1.6Prepare antenna feedline route to comply with job specifications and regulatory requirements
- 1.7Identify installation options, and assess against performance requirements and client requirements
2 Select antenna system
- 2.1Evaluate potential antenna system solutions that satisfy required performance, budgetary and regulatory requirements, and are suitable for installation in specified environment
- 2.2Make recommendations and select optimum antenna system
3 Document antenna system selection
- 3.1Document calculations, final specifications and reasons for selection of antenna system
- 3.2Prepare final report, including documentation and drawings of selected antenna system, and distribute to appropriate persons in accordance with enterprise policies and procedures
Performance evidence
- identify the antenna installation parameters
- select an antenna system required to meet the parameters
- determine the feedline installation from design and specifications
- document the recommendations for the antenna system selection
- comply with specifications and regulatory requirements.
Knowledge evidence
- describe the principles of antenna wave propagation and the impact on antenna array design
- describe the principles of transmission line design and operation, and the impact on antenna design and installation including: • allowable loss in dB • characteristic impedance • mechanical characteristics • method of securing • radio frequency (RF) connector type • weatherproofing.
- describe the process for selecting an antenna design based on the application and performance requirements
- identify and describe a range of antenna systems
- summarise specific issues related to antenna installations and the creation of particular radiation patterns
- identify and describe the regulatory and industry standards relevant to antenna installations.
Foundation skills
- Reading: Examines and interprets plans, specifications and data from relevant sources to determine all technical requirements
- Writing: Uses clear, specific and industry related terminology in appropriate formats to complete and update workplace documentation
- Numeracy: Evaluates and reviews numerical information when evaluating budgetary considerations, test results and technical data, and when converting values to ratios
- Interact with others: Collaborates with others as part of familiar routine activities and contributes to specific activities requiring joint responsibility and accountability • Understands what to communicate to relevant personnel in routine work situations
- Get the work done: Determines job priorities and works logically and systematically to undertake clearly defined and familiar tasks • Identifies and assembles the instruments, equipment and other resources required to competently undertake the job • Uses formal decision making processes with support to clarify goals in more complex, non-routine situations • Gathers information and identifies and evaluates choices against a limited set of criteria • Applies formal problem solving processes, breaking difficult issues into manageable parts and identifying relevant options for action

Questions about assessing ICTRFN402
What does an assessment tool for ICTRFN402 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTRFN402 needs to address all 27 unit components: 3 elements with 11 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 6 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 ICTRFN402?
Auditori pulls the current release of ICTRFN402 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 ICTRFN402 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing ICTRFN402 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 ICTRFN402, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
