What constitutes a complete Assessment Criteria for Week 1 practical?

• A. A risk assessment form.
• B. A list of participant names.
• C. A defined checklist of observable actions, performance thresholds, and safety compliance.
• D. A schedule of breaks.

Answer: (C)

Assessment criteria should define exactly what you will observe, how performance is measured, and what safety standards must be met. This is why a defined checklist of observable actions, performance thresholds, and safety compliance best captures what it means to be competent in a practical setting. Observable actions provide concrete evidence of what the learner can do; performance thresholds establish clear levels of acceptable performance; and safety compliance ensures that all work is performed within required safety rules. Other items place emphasis on administration (names) or logistics (breaks) or safety planning alone (a risk assessment) but do not describe how to judge the learner’s actual performance, so they don’t constitute complete assessment criteria.
