What are Evidence Requirements?

Performance criteria specify the quality of the critical evidence required to meet the unit standard outcomes.

In relation to each outcome, the requirements will specify what is expected to have been done to a particular quality level or standard.

Evidence Requirements must:

• be expressions of evidence, not assessment tasks or instructions to assessors about the way to conduct assessment;
• give informative guidance to assessors and candidates as to what evidence is required;
• provide sufficient detail for valid and consistent assessments to be made;
• collectively indicate the level or quality of performance required;
• refer to essential activities and/or results critical to the outcome being assessed;
• not introduce new aspects of performance which are not implied by the element.
