 Assessment Submission rules and conditions
Read all the instructions below before attempting the assessment task. Assessment tasks are tools used to
determine if you have the knowledge and skills to complete tasks to industry standards within the workplace.
Your trainer/assessor will help you throughout this task and it is your responsibility to provide enough
evidence to justify a competent decision by the trainer/assessor. If you do not understand the questions or
what is required, ask your trainer/assessor for assistance.

 For group assessments, all students are to contribute to the assessment tasks. You must work in
groups when the assessment is required and when that is the case you will be allocated in to groups
by your trainer in the class; hence your active presence is necessary
 Role play/presentation if part of the assessment must be done by all students. Photos or video may
be taken as part of the evidence.
You are to complete all tasks by the due date and assessments must have a coversheet attached. Online
submission opens one week prior to the due week and cut-off date is set on Saturday at 11:55pm in the week
of due date. If you think you do not have enough time to complete the tasks by the due date, discuss with the
trainer/assessor the reasons of why you cannot submit on time. Assessment tasks submitted late may not be
accepted by your trainer/assessor, leaving the learner with a Did Not Submit (DNS) result.

Writing your responses

When answering questions, ensure that your answers are detailed enough so the assessor can draw a
conclusion that you have the knowledge and/or skills to demonstrate competency. When producing reports,
please make sure that your project has the following complete information:

A Title Page, Table of Contents, Page Numbers, Reference List, ensuring that your answers thoroughly match
the questions asked.

Answer all questions in your own words to avoid plagiarism.

Plagiarism/ Academic Misconduct

Plagiarism by a student will result in an automatic ‘NYS’, and as well as being recorded, may result in further
disciplinary action such as a student’s exclusion from a course. Plagiarism is presenting and using someone
else’s work, writings or ideas as your own with or without their consent.

Some examples of plagiarism as follows

 Presenting work by another individual as one’s own unintentionally

 Handing in assessments markedly similar to or copied from another student
 Handing in assessments without the sufficient acknowledgement of sources used, including
assessments taken totally or in part from the Internet

Academic misconduct is a serious matter and any breach of misconduct will be treated seriously as per the
Policy of the organisation. Impersonating or allowing another individual to impersonate you, for the purpose
of completing an assessment or presentation is considered a fraud.

Marking of Assessments

On submission of your assessment it will be marked for a result of either Satisfactory (S) or Not Yet Satisfactory
(NYS). If you receive a NYS result, you will be asked to redo the tasks again. To achieve a competent result with
this unit, all tasks need to be completed and marked as satisfactory. Your trainer/assessor will provide
feedback to you on each task, outlining where you must improve to achieve a Satisfactory (S) result. When all
tasks are marked as Satisfactory (S), you will receive a result of Competent (C) for this unit otherwise, you will
be marked Not Yet Competent (NYC). Assessments submitted to the trainer/assessor after the due date may
not be accepted, and you may have to a resubmission fee.

Handbook for information on assessment appeals for the required steps to appeal this decision. Download the

Introduction
You have been asked to form a ‘virtual’ team of three. The team will be geographically dispersed (i.e.
working in different locations). The team has been assigned the project of developing and
implementing a human resource system for a medium-sized business (110 employees). The project
involves researching and consulting with relevant stakeholders to develop a human resource manual
and a code of conduct. The team will decide what information and processes should be in the
manual. The project team will deliver training and gather feedback to refine the system before
launch.
You can base the role-play team meeting on an organisation of your choice or the Myhome2 case
study.

You have been employed by Hans and Anchara, founders of Myhome2, as the human
resource manager. The business is in its third year of operation. The business started in the study of
Hans and Anchara’s home in Marrickville, an inner-western suburb of Sydney. Hans and Anchara
met on a Contiki Tour in Europe. They love travel and meeting people. After moving to Sydney, they
decided to open their home to a student studying at a nearby university. They were happy when
their guest told them that she felt as safe and happy as if she were at home with her family. The
idea for Myhome2 was ignited!
Myhome2 is a web service that links students studying in New South Wales with a host-family
home within 20 kilometres of their educational institution. The ‘guest’ is guaranteed their own
bedroom, bathroom and study area. Meals are provided five nights per week. The host families are
pre-screened by completing police checks and various other security checks. Typically, the host-
family has children (often in high school or university) who are studying in the local area.
The families of the Myhome2 guests, whether they are interstate in Australia or overseas, can be
assured that their young person is in a safe, family environment where they have privacy and the
guarantee of at least five home-cooked meals every week.
The business did very well last year; exceeding its targets, and have decided to expand this year.
They have over 150 employees, many of them customer experience assistants.
 As the business is still in the growth phase, you manage operations and have oversight of the
human resources team. Hans and Anchara have told you that they expect to employ more
customer experience team members in the next six months as they expand into Queensland, in
areas like the Gold Coast and Brisbane.

Instructions
Follow these instructions to complete your assessment.
1. You must lead a kick-off meeting for the team. (Role play-3 people)
The people who role-play team members attending the meeting will also complete a checklist to
give you feedback on your performance. Your trainer/assessor will assist you in obtaining
sufficient copies of the observation checklist at Appendix B for participants to record their
feedback.
In your kick-off meeting your goal is to build trust, confidence and respect and buy-in to the
project. In the meeting you must demonstrate that you are competent to:
a) Clarify for the team the objectives, values and standards of the organisation.
b) Link the organisation’s objectives, values and standards to the roles and responsibilities
of team members.
c) Enable the team to understand how the project will contribute to the organisation’s
strategy
d) Explain your expectations of the team’s performance including ethical behaviour
e) Facilitate a group discussion to identify at least two technology solutions that the team
could use for project management and communication (remember that this is a
geographically-dispersed team).
f) Lead a discussion to identify the skills and experience of team members
g) Assign accountabilities and responsibilities to team members consistent with their
competencies
h) Delegate project management tasks where appropriate
i) Collaborate with the team to identify the resources needed to undertake the project
2. After the meeting, write the content that you could use in an email to the joint CEOs to:
a) explain the resources that the team will need to deliver the project outcomes?
b) the strategies you will use to maintain a positive work environment and keep
the team on track.
3. An important part of the project involves consulting with stakeholders and facilitating decision-
making. Prepare a slideshow (using PowerPoint or similar) that provides guidelines the team can
follow to conduct consultation and participate in decision-making. There should be
approximately six slides in your presentation.
4. Complete tasks part a & b given below:
a) Create an action plan that the team can follow to deliver the project in eight weeks. Your
action plan must identify:
 tasks
 deliverables
 timeline
 responsible party
Submit the action plan for assessment.
b) Six weeks into the project, you are advised that your most experienced team member
has been promoted to another part of the business. They need to start their new role in
two days.
Explain how you will adapt to this new circumstance in a short paragraph attached to
your action plan (approximately 100 words).
