Competence in this unit must be assessed over a period of time in order to ensure consistency of performance over the Range Statement and contexts applicable to the work environment.

 

See assessment items and courseware listed above

 

This unit may be assessed on its own or it may be assessed with other units that cover related skills and knowledge.

Evidence is most relevant when provided through an integrated activity, which combines the elements of competency for the unit, or a cluster of units of competency.

This unit will always be assessed with FNSFMKT503B Advise Clients on financial risks and with either FNSASIC503VB Provide Advice in Derivatives or FNSASIC503WB Provide Advice in Derivatives in the context of providing financial advice to clients

Competence in this unit must be assessed over a period

of time in order to ensure consistency of performance

over the Range Statement and contexts applicable to the work environment.

 

Assessment involves emailed essays, a range of interactive assessment items comprising both formative and summative assessment. Some of these summative assessments are supervised.

As part of the assessment, information is provided using Audio, Video, text and graphics. Student responses can involve

  • Completion of simulated workplace documentation
  • Completion of simulated processes
  • Responses to multiple choice questions (e.g. clicking on documents to be given to clients)
  • Manipulating and organising items on screen
  • Responses to True/False questions
  • Pointing to significant areas on charts or graphs

Assessment of performance requirements in this unit should be undertaken within the financial services industry context and should cover aspects of personal/financial responsibility and accountability.

Aspects of competency, including skills, may be assessed in a relevant workplace, a closely simulated work environment, or other appropriate means that clearly meet industry competency requirements.

 

See assessment items and courseware listed above.

Under ASIC's Licensing rules, students who have not already demonstrated competency in this unit are not permitted to advise clients. Therefore, the assessment must involve a simulated environment.

This unit of Competency is offered as part of a course which is listed on the ASIC Training Register as Meeting the educational requirements for the minimum requirements for Advising on Derivatives.

To obtain a certificate stating students have met ASIC's requirements, students must demonstrate that they currently have these comptencies. This complicates RPL. See the discussion of RPL in the Gryphon Learning Training Strategies Manual.

 

Assessment of this unit of competence requires access to

suitable opportunities (simulated or real) and resources to demonstrate competence.

Assessment instruments, including personal planner and assessment record book.

Access to a registered provider of assessment services.

 

To complete this unit, students need a computer with adequate internet access. For minimum specifications see the Gryphon Learning Training Strategies Manual.

Most students are currently working in the finance industry (including those employed by Gryphon Learning), and therefore have access to a range of relevant resources (including product documentation.)

Others have accessed such resources from a range of sources, including their financial advisors, by subscription, using the internet and, (under some circumstances, from Gryphon Learning.)
