If you have any concerns about completing any part of the assessment (including literacy and/or numeracy concerns), please talk to our support team before you start.

What NOT to do?

You should not:

  • Complete assessment before reviewing the supplied learning materials
  • Submit incomplete assessments
  • Submit assessment that has been completed by someone else (not you)
  • Submit assessment that has largely been sourced by searching the internet. You must not copy and paste large amounts of assessment answers directly off the internet.

We understand that the internet is a fantastic research tool and encourage our students to use it for this purpose. When asked to conduct research as part of forming your responses to assessment questions, you must cite the source(s) from which you gather your information. For example: Name of the author or organisation as well as the web address where you accessed the information.

You are permitted to paraphrase – meaning you can use someone else’s ideas and put them into your own words.

What is not accepted is copying and pasting assessment answers directly from the internet.

Our trainers check for plagiarism using online tools, all they have to do is type in a couple of short phrases from your assessment and hit search. As simple as that! Assessments received that have been largely completed by internet searching will not be marked and sent back to the student for a second resubmission within 14 days. The student may also receive disciplinary action from MAT.

What if I need help?

Here at MAT we pride ourselves on our Student Support.  We have a dedicated student support team that is ready to help you when/if you need it.

How long do I have to complete my assessment?

Due dates are listed on the student portal training schedule and under enrolments listed on the learning management system. Please submit your unit on or before this date.

How are Assessments marked?

Assessments are marked in the order they are received and generally within 10 business days of submission date. To receive a satisfactory result for the assessments, participants must fully complete all sections of the assessment for the unit to the required standard.

Each assessment task has a section for the Assessor to record the assessment outcome as either “Satisfactory” or “Not Satisfactory”. For you to be awarded a competent result for the unit of competency, you must complete all assessment tasks satisfactorily.

Assessors must ensure that feedback is provided to you after each assessment, this may include asking you to reconsider some of your answers to the submitted responses and/or advice to broaden your understanding of the assessment task.

Once an assessment decision has been made for the unit of competency, the Assessor will complete the unit by recording either a “Competent” or “Not Competent” result.

Can I appeal an assessment decision?
You can appeal an assessment decision up to 30 calendar days after the decision. Assessment appeals can be made using the Complaints and Appeals policy and procedure.

How long do I have to complete my Course?

Students are provided with a confirmation of enrolment letter on commencement of their course.  This letter provides course end dates.

In addition each student is provided access to the student portal. The course tab provides course dates and a training schedule.  Each course has a set duration period however, you are welcome to complete sooner if you wish.
