What an assessment for SHBHTLS002 must cover

25 assessable components: 2 elements (11 performance criteria), 3 performance evidence and 4 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 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

complete a research project using information from at least three different sources to: • identify and explore emerging hair design trends and technologies: • develop a report which covers: • analysis of emerging design trends and technologies • implications of adoption including implications for the commercial viability of hair designs that align to emerging trends • impacts on own current design practice • potential for generating commercial opportunities • information on discussions and debates and the individual’s position on emerging design trends and technologies • plans for integrating emerging trends to own professional design practice
trial and experiment with three design trends and associated techniques and technologies, chosen from the above research project
add to the research report: • results of experimentation with design trends, techniques and technologies • any experiences where design skills have been extended by using emerging trends during or post research.

Knowledge evidence

sources of reliable information on emerging hair design trends and technologies: • local and international industry associations • professional design practitioners • trade magazines • trade shows • industry seminars • suppliers of professional hair products, tools, and equipment

Questions about assessing SHBHTLS002

What does an assessment tool for SHBHTLS002 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for SHBHTLS002 needs to address all 25 unit components: 2 elements with 11 performance criteria, 3 performance evidence requirements, 4 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 SHBHTLS002?

Auditori pulls the current release of SHBHTLS002 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 SHBHTLS002 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing SHBHTLS002 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 SHBHTLS002, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
