What an assessment for RIIARO302 must cover

34 assessable components: 2 elements (15 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 12 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 3 foundation skills. 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 Plan and prepare to work safely with RPAS

  • 1.1Obtain, interpret, confirm and clarify work instructions

  • 1.5Check and confirm condition of RPAS and required sub-systems meets job and site requirements
  • 1.6Check and confirm surface and atmospheric conditions of work area are safe to operate RPAS according to manufacturer specifications and site requirements
  • 1.7Identify potential risks and hazards, implement control measures within scope of own role, and escalate where required
  • 1.8Obtain and interpret emergency procedures, develop contingency plans and identify steps required to respond to emergencies

2 Carry out work activity using RPAS

  • 2.1Identify and communicate fatigue risks to required personnel according to legislative and site requirements
  • 2.2Coordinate RPAS operation with required personnel within scope of own role
  • 2.3Operate and monitor RPAS and required sub-systems and devices according to manufacturer specifications and job and site requirements
  • 2.4Monitor risks and hazards, implement control measures within scope of own role, and escalate where required
  • 2.5Report on monitoring systems and alarms according to site requirements and respond within scope of own role, and escalate where required
  • 2.6Complete RPAS operation according to manufacturer specifications and job and site requirements
  • 2.7Complete records and documentation according to site requirements

Performance evidence

  • carry out work activity with a remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS) on at least two occasions.
  • locate and apply legislation, documentation, policies and procedures required to work safely with RPAS
  • implement the requirements, procedures and techniques to work safely with RPAS, including: interpreting and applying work health and safety requirements and work instructions; identifying, monitoring and reporting risks and hazards; applying required measures for minimising, controlling or eliminating identified hazards, including: Bowtie Risk model; industry recognised operational risk assessment (ORA); adjusting work activity according to identified operational risks and hazards; responding to or reporting on monitoring systems and alarms
  • work with others to safely carry out work activity with RPAS in a way that meets required outcomes, including: communicating with others to receive and clarify work instructions and convey work progress; coordinating work activity with others using multiple communication devices.

Knowledge evidence

  • legislation required to work safely with RPAS
  • policies, procedures and documentation required to work safely with RPAS including those relating to: beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS); fatigue risk management; hazard, incident and emergency response procedures; land heights and above ground level (AGL) RPAS altitude compliance; night operations; licensing and regulatory requirements; workplace recording and reporting requirements; RPAS and component manufacturer specifications; site safety signage, alarms and systems; standard operating conditions; obtaining permits and clearances; underground operations; work health and safety
  • manufacturer specifications
  • site requirements
  • types, characteristics, technical capabilities and limitations of RPAS and components, including: battery management, identification and charging; emergency procedures; modifications; operating procedures; power status indicators
  • types, characteristics and risks of common hazards, including: dust; firmware updates; GPS failure; high winds; wildlife
  • principles and techniques for risk and hazard management of RPAS, including: Bowtie Risk model; industry recognised operational risk assessment (ORA)
  • techniques for systematic scanning
  • techniques for determining above ground level (AGL)
  • techniques for manually controlling RPAS
  • key terminology for RPAS, components and operations, including those specific to relevant sector, organisation and manufacturer
  • techniques for coordinating and communicating work activities with others.

Foundation skills

  • Oral communication: Uses listening and questioning to clarify and confirm understanding
  • Self-management: Monitors and minimises own exposure to worksite risks and hazards during work activities
  • Technology: Uses digital technologies and applications to access, organise and share information

Questions about assessing RIIARO302

What does an assessment tool for RIIARO302 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIIARO302 needs to address all 34 unit components: 2 elements with 15 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 12 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 RIIARO302?

Auditori pulls the current release of RIIARO302 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 RIIARO302 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing RIIARO302 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 RIIARO302, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
