What an assessment for RIICRC309E must cover

85 assessable components: 6 elements (23 performance criteria), 30 performance evidence and 29 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.

Performance evidence

  • conduct stabiliser operations on at least two occasions on at least two separate projects, including:
  • stabilising using two different additive types for at least 500 square metres, including carrying out the following according to job requirements:
  • checking and confirming moisture content, additive application rate, pulverising, mixing, line and length
  • excavating and remixing existing fill
  • refilling in layers using the stabilised material
  • mixing materials
  • applying additives
  • achieving specified line and depth
  • enhancing the properties of existing pavement
  • decreasing permeability
  • changing volume
  • conducting stabiliser pre-operational checks and rectifying or reporting any faults
  • operating stabiliser according to manufacturer specifications and site and job requirements
  • relocating stabiliser according to manufacturer specifications and site and job requirements
  • carrying out plant maintenance and keeping records
  • clearing work area and disposing of, recycling or storing materials
  • cleaning, checking, maintaining and storing plant, tools and equipment
  • writing records of paver machine performance.
  • During the above, the candidate must:
  • locate and apply required documentation, policies and procedures and confirm work activity is compliant
  • implement the requirements, procedures and techniques to conduct stabiliser operations, including:
  • identifying and applying required specifications to all work activities
  • identifying, addressing and reporting potential hazards and risks
  • identifying, obtaining, confirming and implementing signage requirements
  • selecting and checking for faults all plant, tools and equipment required to carry out tasks
  • work with others to conduct stabiliser operations in a way that meets requirements, including:
  • preparing for and organising work activities to meet task requirements
  • communicating with others to receive and clarify work instructions
  • using communication techniques and aids to advise others of work activity and exclusion zones
  • monitoring movements and hazards and identifying and communicating changes to work environment.

Knowledge evidence

  • legislation required to conduct stabiliser operations
  • policies, procedures and documentation required to conduct stabiliser operations, including those relating to:
  • site requirements
  • manufacturer specifications for required plant and equipment
  • relevant job specifications
  • hazard and risk management
  • environmental protection
  • work activity set up procedures
  • communication techniques and aids
  • site isolation, signage, erecting barriers and traffic control
  • work health and safety
  • waste management
  • workplace recording and reporting
  • types, characteristics, technical capabilities and limitations of stabilisers and plant and equipment required to conduct stabiliser operations
  • principles and techniques for effective stabiliser operations, including:
  • pre-start, start-up, park and shutdown techniques, including serviceability checks
  • techniques for checking and confirming relevant variables, including:
  • moisture content
  • additive application rate
  • pulverising
  • mixing
  • line and length
  • techniques for excavating and mixing materials, including remixing existing fill
  • techniques for applying additives, including:

Questions about assessing RIICRC309E

What does an assessment tool for RIICRC309E need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIICRC309E needs to address all 85 unit components: 6 elements with 23 performance criteria, 30 performance evidence requirements, 29 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 RIICRC309E?

Auditori pulls the current release of RIICRC309E 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 RIICRC309E — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing RIICRC309E 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 RIICRC309E, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
