What an assessment for UEERA0095 must cover

76 assessable components: 3 elements (13 performance criteria), 17 performance evidence and 46 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 Prepare to recover refrigerant

  • 1.1WHS/OHS procedures for refrigerant recovery are identified and applied in accordance with workplace procedures and regulatory requirements
  • 1.2WHS/OHS risk control measures and workplace procedures are followed in preparation for work
  • 1.3Refrigeration/air conditioning systems are inspected, including refrigerant access points and refrigerant type, and the nature of work to be undertaken is confirmed in accordance with scope of work and manufacturer specifications
  • 1.4Materials, tools, equipment, testing devices, signage and personal protective equipment (PPE) required to recover the refrigerant are identified, obtained and checked for correct operation in accordance with the refrigerant type and flammability

2 Recover refrigerant from decommissioned stationary refrigeration/air conditioning equipment

  • 2.1Recovery equipment is connected to the system through service gauge lines using tools and fittings to prevent/minimise refrigerant loss in accordance with workplace procedures, manufacturer instructions and regulatory requirements
  • 2.2Recovery cylinder weight and pressure is measured and recorded to ensure refrigerant recovered is accepted in accordance with workplace procedures and regulatory requirements
  • 2.3Refrigerant is recovered from system by operating and monitoring the recovery equipment in accordance with manufacturer instructions
  • 2.4Recovery equipment, including service gauge lines and recovery cylinder, are shut down and disconnected when the refrigerant is recovered in accordance with manufacturer instructions
  • 2.5Recovery cylinder weight is measured and the quantity of the refrigerant recovered is recorded in accordance with regulatory requirements

3 Complete work and relevant documentation

  • 3.1Worksite, tools and equipment are cleaned, checked and made safe in accordance with workplace procedures and manufacturer instructions
  • 3.2Tools, equipment and recovery cylinder refrigerant are securely stored in accordance with regulatory requirements and workplace procedures
  • 3.3WHS/OHS issues are reported to relevant person/s in accordance with workplace procedures
  • 3.4Documentation is completed and provided to relevant person/s in accordance with workplace procedures and regulatory requirements

Questions about assessing UEERA0095

What does an assessment tool for UEERA0095 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for UEERA0095 needs to address all 76 unit components: 3 elements with 13 performance criteria, 17 performance evidence requirements, 46 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 UEERA0095?

Auditori pulls the current release of UEERA0095 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 UEERA0095 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing UEERA0095 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 UEERA0095, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
