What an assessment for RIIPBE309D must cover
38 assessable components: 5 elements (27 performance criteria), 4 performance evidence and 6 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 1 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.

- 5.3Process records
Performance evidence
- locates and applies relevant documentation, policies and procedures
- implements the requirements, procedures and techniques for the safe, effective and efficient completion of wet gravity separation including: conducting start up, shut down and/or isolation of equipment in sequence; operating and monitoring equipment; carrying out minor maintenance; conducting housekeeping activities; diagnosing faults, reporting defects and identifying repair requirements; applying lifting techniques (manual, automated); accurate record maintenance; selecting and using relevant tools and equipment
- works effectively with others to undertake and complete the wet gravity separation in a way that meets all of the required outcomes including: using a range of communications techniques and equipment to convey information to others; maintaining written and verbal reporting requirements and procedures; organising work activities to meet all task requirements; communicating clearly and concisely with others to receive and clarify work instructions
- demonstrates completion of conducting wet gravity separation that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including: reading and interpreting data from equipment indicators to determine separation efficiency; continuously inspecting and monitoring plant, identifying separation process defects and potential problems; assessing mineral content of ore according to separation parameters; making appropriate adjustments to separation process to optimise targets; adjusting equipment to approved operating parameters to optimise separation performance, maintain efficient separation and to meet project quality targets; controlling feed to separation equipment
Knowledge evidence
- accessing, interpreting and applying organisation and site requirements and procedures for: WHS, site safety and emergency requirements; environmental issues; equipment safety requirements; hazardous substance procedures and consequences of spills; operational procedures and checks; site procedures; break-down procedures; isolation procedures; contaminant identification and treatment
- reading and interpreting reports
- applying equipment processes, limitations and operating parameters
- monitoring separation plant (basic)
- interpreting metallurgical and technical data
- identifying types of ores and grades (basic)
Foundation skills

Questions about assessing RIIPBE309D
What does an assessment tool for RIIPBE309D need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for RIIPBE309D needs to address all 38 unit components: 5 elements with 27 performance criteria, 4 performance evidence requirements, 6 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 RIIPBE309D?
Auditori pulls the current release of RIIPBE309D 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 RIIPBE309D — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing RIIPBE309D 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 RIIPBE309D, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
