Assessment methods

The methods of assessment used in this course include:

Questioning - written knowledge assessments are used to assess the knowledge evidence for all units; and Practical Demonstrations - direct observations of performance evidence, in the form of practical, simulated work tasks are conducted in the specialised ‘live works’ facilities on college premises. The facilities are set up in the Pavilion Restaurant and Bar. This ensures there are sufficient situations and opportunities for the students to experience a range of contexts, within a reasonable timeframe and enrolment period and that assessments requiring a specific range of equipment are readily available in the NMTAFE hospitality facilities.

These assessment strategies and evidence gathering are in accordance with the relevant training package or accreditation guidelines. Detailed Information is available in the assessment matrix, learning plans and assessment tools for each of the units of competency. Assessors use this matrix to ensure assessments, are undertaken across the duration of the course, rather than clustered together at particular times.

Lecturer Ben Tan stands towards the camera with a big smile. He's wearing a light brown business shirt with his name badge on his right chest above branding that says "Saltbush Restaurant." On the left side of his shirt, it reads "South Metropolitan" with the "TAFE WA" logo. Sitting on a bench behind him are two plunger coffee pots in stainless steel. There's a brown panelled wall that fills the backdrop.
