What an assessment for MARN020 must cover
24 assessable components: 3 elements (12 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 7 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 Supervise weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel
- 1.1Principal structural components of vessel are identified from vessel drawings to understand the function of these components in relation to conventional vessel design
- 1.2Pumping and pipeline systems of vessel are investigated to establish survivability of vessel in case of flooding and damage control
- 1.3Procedures for maintaining weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel are interpreted and implemented according to vessel safety management plan and regulations
- 1.4Crew are instructed on requirements of plan and their responsibilities
- 1.5Actions are instigated to confirm weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel at all times
2 Take action to meet changed sea and weather conditions
- 2.1Weather forecasts and observations of sea and weather conditions are used to predict situations that may jeopardise vessel weather tight and watertight integrity
- 2.2Effect of severe wind and rolling in associated sea conditions on vessel weather tight and watertight integrity is recognised
- 2.3Effect of water on deck on vessel weather tight and watertight integrity is ascertained
- 2.4Appropriate action is taken to maintain vessel weather tight and watertight integrity according to organisational procedures
3 Maintain records
- 3.1Relevant documents and records are completed and maintained, as required, according to regulatory and organisational requirements
- 3.2Relevant documents are sent to appropriate bodies and copies are filed according to regulatory and organisational requirements
- 3.3Documents are stored according to regulatory and organisational requirements
Performance evidence
- appropriately using bilge and other pumping arrangements
- assessing damage control measures
- completing required records
- establishing procedures for restoring or managing weather tight and watertight integrity during an emergency
- reading and interpreting vessel specifications, drawings and operational manuals
Knowledge evidence
- bilge pumping arrangements
- different vessel types
- effects of adding and removing weights, water on deck, slack tanks, rolling period, stiff and tender vessel, and additions or alterations to vessels
- principal parts of vessel and their various functions
- structural components, including: design characteristics attributing to watertight integrity, principal components of vessel structure, structural arrangements to restrain fires, watertight and collision bulkheads
- weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel, including: closing openings, ensuring passenger distribution does not exceed allowed limits, ensuring stores, cargo and equipment are properly stowed and lashed, maintaining stability condition within approved limits, methods for testing tanks and other watertight openings
- work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and work practices

Questions about assessing MARN020
What does an assessment tool for MARN020 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MARN020 needs to address all 24 unit components: 3 elements with 12 performance criteria, 5 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 MARN020?
Auditori pulls the current release of MARN020 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 MARN020 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing MARN020 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 MARN020, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
