What an assessment for ICTTEN427 must cover

43 assessable components: 5 elements (20 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 12 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 Obtain access to work site

  • 1.1Notify appropriate personnel, if necessary, to arrange site access, discuss installation requirements and identify carrier network systems
  • 1.2Assess site-specific safety requirements and enterprise work health and safety (WHS) processes and procedures
  • 1.3Use network information systems to obtain planning data

2 Identify existing infrastructure

  • 2.1Confirm details of installation with stakeholders
  • 2.2Verify site conditions and building construction
  • 2.3Locate and record existing facilities and systems
  • 2.4Confirm installation locations and identify barriers to planned network extension
  • 2.5Integrate existing network and floor plans into documentation where available

3 Integrate existing infrastructure into design brief

  • 3.1Review existing plans, drawings and databases against the design brief
  • 3.2Calculate capacity of existing facilities against proposed usage to ensure appropriate design decisions for new installation
  • 3.3Incorporate all data into new installation design
  • 3.4Mark up plans and prepare report on new installation design
  • 3.5Develop contingency plans for anticipated constraints

4 Review design for compliance with standards and legislation

  • 4.1Examine standards, practices and requirements for locating telecommunications infrastructure in the access network
  • 4.2Review installation design to ensure compliance with requirements of federal, state and local regulations, relevant legislation, codes and standards
  • 4.3Initiate any special studies or investigations necessary for completion of the project

5 Complete required reports and documentation

  • 5.1Complete required documents promptly and according to planning parameters
  • 5.2Obtain carrier confirmation from documented requirements
  • 5.3Distribute design documentation to stakeholders promptly
  • 5.4Obtain project plan sign-off from carrier

Performance evidence

  • evaluate existing infrastructure on an installation site
  • integrate existing infrastructure into an installation design
  • develop design specifications for an installation project
  • engage stakeholders and carriers in design approval process.

Knowledge evidence

  • identify and explain the impact of relevant legislation, codes of practice and other formal agreements that impact communications work
  • describe access networks in Australia and state how it influences development of projects
  • identify costs associated with carrier installations and determine estimates and operating budgets for an installation
  • identify network performance information required to produce a network design
  • specify current, new and emerging technologies to be considered for a communications design, including barriers that may have an impact
  • define project management and its purpose and explain associated databases and project management software programs used
  • explain economic and political influences and trends that impact communications installations for public and commercial enterprises
  • describe a network plan and its components
  • explain the purpose of having authorities and delegations required when costing and estimating financials for projects
  • explain the impact of local and international economic conditions on telecommunications installations and infrastructure, and typical challenges and limits facing technology today and on future needs
  • describe the process and documentation required to collate and write project briefs, reports and project charters
  • identify specific work health and safety requirements relating to site conditions and activities, including manufacturer’s requirements for safe operation of equipment to be incorporated into project documentation.

Foundation skills

  • Reading: Recognises and interprets a wide variety of technical and non-technical documentation
  • Writing: Uses clear, specific and industry-related terminology to document technical requirements and procedures
  • Oral Communication: Participates in verbal exchanges with customers and team members about technical and operational requirements using specific and relevant language Uses listening and questioning techniques to confirm understanding
  • Numeracy: Analyses numerical information to interpret site-specific data
  • Navigate the world of work: Takes personal responsibility for adherence to legal and regulatory responsibilities relevant to own work
  • Interact with others: Selects and uses appropriate conventions and protocols when communicating with customers and co-workers in a range of work contexts
  • Get the work done: Determines job priorities and works logically and systematically to undertake clearly defined and familiar tasks and plan necessary resources Implements actions according to a predetermined plan, making slight adjustments if necessary and addressing some unexpected issues Takes responsibility for routine decision-making by selecting from a range of predetermined options in routine situations, identifying and taking some situational factors into account Diagnoses and implements standard solutions to unexpected situations based on safety requirements and specified work outcomes Recognises and initiates approaches to enhance work practices, taking present and future needs and barriers to plan completion into account Reflects on ways digital systems and tools are used to achieve work goals, and recognises strategic and operational applications

Questions about assessing ICTTEN427

What does an assessment tool for ICTTEN427 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTTEN427 needs to address all 43 unit components: 5 elements with 20 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 12 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 ICTTEN427?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTTEN427 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 ICTTEN427 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTTEN427 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 ICTTEN427, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
