Fairness     The individual learner's needs are considered in the assessment process.
             Where appropriate, reasonable adjustments are applied by the RTO to take into account the individual learner's needs.
             The RTO informs the learner about the assessment process, and provides the learner with the opportunity to challenge the result of the assessment and be reassessed if necessary.

                reflecting the learner's needs;
                assessing competencies held by the learner no matter how or where they have been acquired; and
                drawing from a range of assessment methods and using those that are appropriate to the context, the unit of competency and associated assessment requirements, and the individual.
