What an assessment for MEM26008 must cover

42 assessable components: 4 elements (27 performance criteria), 7 performance evidence and 8 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 Determine product requirements

1.1Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
1.2Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
1.3Select and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
1.4Determine requirements of resin system from specifications, job sheets or work instructions and customer requests
1.5Select appropriate process to be used to fabricate product

2 Select most appropriate resin/resin system for job

2.1Determine performance outcomes required from resin
2.2Interpret specifications of available resins
2.3Compare required properties with specifications of available resin systems
2.4Interpret safety data sheets (SDS) for possible resin systems
2.5Select most appropriate resin

3 Evaluate selected resin system

3.1Identify current conditions impacting on resin chemistry
3.2Identify adjustments which can be made to meet current conditions
3.3Make allowable adjustments and monitor result
3.4Fabricate a sample using the selected resin system and nominated reinforcing
3.5Conduct/organise for relevant tests
3.6Evaluate test results against product requirements
3.7Review fabrication process and make any required changes to resin system or process

4 Fabricate product

4.1Identify and control hazards
4.2Prepare nominated reinforcing, including cutting to size/shape and any pre-treatment, as required
4.3Lay reinforcing in correct direction, including fibre orientation and fibre pre-forming, as appropriate
4.4Make any appropriate adjustments to the resin system recipe
4.5Mix selected resin system, as required
4.6Fabricate product using selected process and minimise waste
4.7Review product compared to requirements
4.8Review reinforcing selection and fabrication process
4.9Identify areas for improvement and take appropriate actions
4.10Complete any required documentation/reporting according to SOPs

Performance evidence

following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
identifying and interpreting specifications, safety data sheets (SDS), formulas/recipes, batch sheets, product drawings, customer requests for selecting and using resin systems appropriate for product
considering all reasonably available resin systems when selecting and choosing the appropriate product
fabricating a sample and conducting/organising relevant test and evaluating the test results and making any required changes, as appropriate
fabricating the final product using selected process and minimising waste as per specifications
identifying areas for improvement and taking appropriate action
completing all documentation and reports including items requiring further action in accordance with SOPs.

Knowledge evidence

safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
current state/territory work health and safety (WHS) legislation, standards and codes of practice relevant to using selecting and using resin systems appropriate for product
physical and chemical properties of resins
resin types, cost and source
catalyst types and systems (e.g. polyester and vinyl ester)
hardener types (e.g. epoxy and phenolic)
fillers and thickeners (e.g. mineral extenders, milled and cut fibre)
catalyst hazards (e.g. self-accelerating decomposition temperature (SADTs)) and control measures associated with selecting and using resin systems appropriate for product, including housekeeping.

Questions about assessing MEM26008

What does an assessment tool for MEM26008 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM26008 needs to address all 42 unit components: 4 elements with 27 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 8 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 MEM26008?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM26008 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 MEM26008 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM26008 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 MEM26008, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
