Rules of Evidence

If you are providing workplace documents as part of your assessment, the evidence provided must be:

Valid: The evidence must be directly relevant to the specific skills, knowledge, and competencies being assessed. For example, written case studies might not be valid evidence for a practical, hands-on unit. 

Sufficient: There must be enough evidence, both in quality and quantity, to make a confident judgement about the learner's competence.

Authentic: The evidence must be the original work of the learner and not completed by someone else. Assessors must be confident that the work is genuine.

Current: The evidence must demonstrate that the learner's skills and knowledge are current. This means the evidence should be from the present or very recent past, as it can become outdated over time.
