What an assessment for ICTTEN310 must cover

44 assessable components: 3 elements (20 performance criteria), 10 performance evidence and 7 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 Prepare for hardware replacement

  • 1.1Obtain repair/replacement brief, relevant legislation, codes, regulations and standards for the job

  • 1.4Work safely according to relevant safety legislation and client practices
  • 1.5Obtain appropriate new or replacement hardware and associated installation documentation
  • 1.6Obtain tools and check they are in good working order
  • 1.7Undertake an impact risk assessment of the hardware replacement with the relevant authority and prepare a contingency plan

2 Replace hardware

  • 2.1Notify relevant authority of any building or equipment cabinet alarms that might be activated by accessing site
  • 2.2Verify serial/part numbers of replacement card
  • 2.3Determine card suite, rack, shelf and slot location
  • 2.4Remove and replace connecting cables and card as required
  • 2.5Replace electronic equipment, as instructed by the relevant authority, following relevant anti-static precautions
  • 2.6Complete associated jumpering or cabling as required
  • 2.7Request relevant authority or integration team to activate the card
  • 2.8Escalate any hardware replacement problems with the relevant authority and implement contingency plan
  • 2.9Restore pressurisation systems as required

3 Clean up worksite and complete required documentation

  • replace telecommunications hardware according to client practices
  • follow required practices or contingency plan if hardware replacement is unsuccessful
  • update fault records and complete required documentation
  • restore site to required condition
  • liaise with personnel from relevant authority for information and reporting purposes.

Knowledge evidence

  • explain application of direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) electrical principles to the removal and replacement of circuit boards
  • describe static electricity and its impact on electronic circuit boards in telecommunications equipment

Questions about assessing ICTTEN310

What does an assessment tool for ICTTEN310 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTTEN310 needs to address all 44 unit components: 3 elements with 20 performance criteria, 10 performance evidence requirements, 7 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 ICTTEN310?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTTEN310 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 ICTTEN310 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTTEN310 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 ICTTEN310, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
