Can I check my existing MSFGN3006 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 MSFGN3006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
