The Level 1 Pūkaha Engineering Course is assessed by completing a practical project(s) to the exact specifications/tolerances on a given drawing and by completing several theory assessment booklets. These booklets ask you to record your evidence and answer some knowledged based questions based on the standard . The booklets (and support material)are written and moderated an Industry Training Organisation (ITO) called Competenz.
If you have difficulty answering a question your teacher can assist by writing a verbal answer for you.
To achieve the credits on offer you must complete the practical project and the theory booklet. click here for an example assessment booklet on fasteners. If you are outside are organisation these may be copyright protected and you will not be able to view them.
