opportunity to resubmit evidence to demonstrate competence. The assessor will determine and discuss the reasons for NS – Not satisfactory on any of the criteria and will assess you through a different method of assessment e.g. verbal/oral questioning, problem solving exercises. • You will be notified within 10 working days of undertaking an assessment of their result in achieving competency o If a student does not complete the assessment, they should notify their trainer as to why they did not complete the assessment and if due to illness, a medical certificate must be produced. “This process is detailed more in the “Training and Assessment Policy and Procedure” o In the above scenario, student will be given an opportunity for reassessment within 5 working days with no reassessment fee charged. o Students who are deemed to be Not Yet Competent (NYC) will be provided with information identifying the areas in which they failed to achieve competency. Students will then have the opportunity to repeat the assessment task within 5 working days of notification with no reassessment fee charged. o If a student is deemed NYC in the reassessment or if the student did not approach the MACALLAN COLLEGE within five working days with a valid reason for not availing themselves of the reassessment opportunity, then those students will be given a final chance to re-sit the assessment and will be charged at $200.00. o After this no further reassessment attempt will be provided to the student and the student will be required to repeat the whole unit with full fee for the unit as per the fees policy of the MACALLAN COLLEGE. The student will be made aware of the impact of repeating the unit may have on their student visa. o If a student is found to be cheating or plagiarising their assessment, a $200.00 reassessment fee will be charged for reassessing the assessment within 5 working days. o If the student is found to be plagiarising or cheating again after conclusion of the Intervention meeting with the Course Co-ordinator,

Scenario You are part of a team of 3–4 working at a seafood restaurant called Fish&Catch, located in one of Melbourne’s dining hotspots. This area is popular with tourists and draws large crowds in summer. Your manager has asked your workgroup to design a new summer dinner menu for the restaurant. You have 90 minutes to work together to create it, using the current menu, a list of seasonal produce, and workplace policies and procedures. You are not expected to have completed an entire menu by the end of this meeting. What is expected is that the team comes up with an achievable plan to reach this goal.

Your assessor will advise you of your workgroup team members. They are likely to be fellow students. The workgroup should include a manager or supervisor, a cook, and at least 2 additional team members. 3. You are required to plan your participation in the workgroup meeting. You will need to agree with your group and assessor on the time and date of the meeting and whether the meeting will be face-to-face or conducted using videoconferencing.
