• 3.2Assess safety risks and horse welfare requirements associated with re-educating and/or transitioning individual horses
• 3.3Incorporate client involvement in plan as required
• 3.4Ensure diet and exercise requirements specific to the individual horse and consistent with proposed new purpose are included in the program

• 4.3Expose the horse to new activities, routines and/or environments to assist with transitioning to a new purpose
• 4.4Devise strategies to manage unwanted behaviours tailored to individual horse requirements

5 Review re-education and/or transition program

• 5.2Revise plan, modifying activities and/or extending timelines, to address needs of horses that have not met success criteria
• 5.3Discuss with client alternative plans for a horse that has significant re-education issues or is unsuited for proposed new purpose

What does an assessment tool for RGRPSH424 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RGRPSH424 needs to address all 47 unit components: 5 elements with 24 performance criteria, 8 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 RGRPSH424?

Auditori pulls the current release of RGRPSH424 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 RGRPSH424 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing RGRPSH424 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 RGRPSH424, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
