What an assessment for TLIS3009 must cover

43 assessable components: 3 elements (15 performance criteria), 15 performance evidence and 13 knowledge evidence requirements. 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 Assemble components

  • 1.1Correct components are identified and selected to comply with job specifications
  • 1.2Hazards are identified, risks are assessed and control measures are implemented
  • 1.3Equipment and components are pre-assembled and positioned for installation in compliance with work orders and job specifications

2 Install equipment and components

  • 2.1Equipment/component layout is prepared and checked to ensure position matches job specifications
  • 2.2All fastening positions are marked and drilled for installation
  • 2.3Equipment and components are secured in correct sequence and position in compliance with job specifications
  • 2.4Additional requirements or alterations to existing components are identified and appropriate follow-up action is taken
  • 2.5Manufacturing of additional components is carried out to allow for complete installation
  • 2.6Alterations to existing components are carried out to provide for the installation of new equipment
  • 2.7All interlinking components are correctly attached and secured ready for testing in compliance with work specifications

3 Test and adjust equipment

  • 3.1Required authorisation for tests is confirmed to ensure safe train operations may continue
  • 3.2Test procedures are coordinated and liaison with appropriate personnel is maintained to ensure overall safety
  • 3.3Appropriate tests are carried out to ensure all operations are within specifications and appropriate adjustments are made to ensure smooth operation
  • 3.4Testing is carried out to ensure functionality of all operations to the locking table
  • 3.5Operational readiness is confirmed and required documentation/certification is correctly completed and processed to allow for commissioning

Performance evidence

  • adapting to differences in equipment in accordance with operating procedures
  • applying relevant legislation and workplace procedures
  • assembling interlinking components
  • checking and confirming compliance with operational specifications

Questions about assessing TLIS3009

What does an assessment tool for TLIS3009 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for TLIS3009 needs to address all 43 unit components: 3 elements with 15 performance criteria, 15 performance evidence requirements, 13 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 TLIS3009?

Auditori pulls the current release of TLIS3009 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 TLIS3009 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing TLIS3009 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 TLIS3009, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
