What an assessment for MARC034 must cover
32 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 9 performance evidence and 11 knowledge evidence requirements. 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 work
- 1.1Planned maintenance program for hull type and construction material is accessed to determine hull maintenance requirements
- 1.2Vessel is inspected and additional maintenance requirements are determined
- 1.3Maintenance tasks are planned and sequenced in conjunction with others involved in or affected by maintenance work
- 1.4Repair tools and equipment are selected and checked for serviceability
- 1.5Work area is prepared
2 Carry out required maintenance and repairs to hull, equipment and fittings
- 2.1Suitable personal protective equipment is selected and used according to work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements
- 2.2Permits for hot work, confined space entry and other high risk activities are completed according to organisational and regulatory requirements
- 2.3Tasks are performed according to manufacturer specifications, maintenance yard requirements and organisational practices
3 Clean up and complete documentation
- 3.1Work area is cleared and cleaned so it is in a serviceable condition
- 3.2Materials are disposed of or recycled according to legislative and organisational requirements
- 3.3Tools and equipment are cleaned, checked and stored according to organisational procedures
- 3.4Maintenance reports are completed according to workplace procedures
Performance evidence

- functions of underwater equipment
- nature and causes of corrosion of marine surfaces and structures, and available methods for its control
- organisational procedures for maintenance
- principles and procedures of lubrication as they relate to underwater vessel equipment and fittings
- procedures for: - checking and inspecting vessel hull as part of routine maintenance program - initiating and coordinating repair and or replacement of underwater equipment and fittings
- process and requirements for hull maintenance
- types, characteristics and functions of equipment or tools used in maintenance
- use of sacrificial anodes
- WHS/OHS procedures and practices including: - hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control measures - hazards of working in confined spaces - maintenance hazards and associated problems

Questions about assessing MARC034
What does an assessment tool for MARC034 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MARC034 needs to address all 32 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 9 performance evidence requirements, 11 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 MARC034?
Auditori pulls the current release of MARC034 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 MARC034 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing MARC034 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 MARC034, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
