Condition 51

Prior to each HRWL Assessment, the RTO must confirm that the resources required to conduct the Assessment in the relevant HRWL class:

a. are readily available and safe for use, including, but not limited to, the site/venue, plant, equipment, and/or materials; and

b. are compliant and meet the full requirements to conduct the HRWL Assessment as prescribed for the relevant HRWL class in the Guide for Assessors and/ or the NAI

• The RTO must carry out appropriate due diligence before every assessment

• This means having a process that ensures an RTO staff member consistently checks everything is available for a safe, compliant, and full licence assessment before every assessment

• Good practice would be to use a checklist so the required items can be marked off

• If the RTO cannot confirm all required items for the assessment, the RTO must cancel the HRWL Assessment as it is unable to meet the requirements of Conditions 51 and 52.

Condition 52

Prior to each HRWL Assessment, the RTO must provide timely written notification to the Assessor including, but not limited to:

f. suitable evidence that the resources required to conduct the HRWL Assessment (see Conditions 51(a) and 51(b) above) have been determined as available, safe for use and compliant.

• The RTO must have a process for providing the necessary written information to an Assessor before the assessment

• This could occur via email, OLE notification or hard copy documents and must include either:

  • A written declaration by the RTO to the Assessor that confirms the resources have been checked and are readily available, safe for use, compliant and meet the full requirements OR

  • A copy of the checklist(s) used to confirm the resources have been checked and are readily available, safe for use, compliant and meet the full requirements.
