adjustments. If you have any health issues or conditions, physical disabilities, and any other
special needs that could affect your performance (like if you are left handed and you need a

Feedbacking
For Candidate#1: Based on the results of your performance, you have undertaken all the
tasks within the required standards. However, I noticed that you missed to implement all the
necessary OHS on the first part of your demonstration. But since you were able to notice it
and quickly implemented it, I think, overall, you satisfactorily performed the tasks. And for
the oral questioning, though you took time to answer the questions, I think you have provided
the key words for the correct answers.

So, Congratulations Cnadidate#1, you are competent! So here’s your Competency Assessment
Results Summary (CARS), please sign it before I give to the AC Manager. Thank you and
congratulations again.

May I call on candidate #2. You did finish the tasks in time, however, you were not able to
meet the standard requirements for some units of the competency. I am sorry that you need
to further review and practice the learning activities to meet the standards of your
qualification. Anyway, you may come back for reassessment once you are ready and don’t
worry, you will only be assessed on the parts where you are found to be not yet competent.
Please sign the CARS. Thank you very much.

(After signing the CARS, the Assessor gives the CARS to the AC Manager)
