Principles of Assessment
Based on Clauses 1.8 – 1.12 from the Australian Standards Quality Assurance’s (ASQA) Standards for Registered Training Organizations  (RTO) 2015, the learner would be assessed based on the following principles: Fairness - (1) the individual learner’s needs are considered in the assessment process, (2) where appropriate, reasonable adjustments are applied by the RTO to take into account the individual leaner’s needs and, (3) the RTO informs the leaner about the assessment process, and provides the learner with the opportunity to challenge the result of the assessment and be reassessed if necessary. Flexibility – assessment is flexible to the individual learner by; (1) reflecting the learner’s needs, (2) assessing competencies held by the learner no matter how or where they have been acquired and, (3) the unit of competency and associated assessment requirements, and the individual. Validity    – (1) requires that assessment against the unit/s of competency and the associated assessment requirements covers the broad range of skills and knowledge, (2) assessment of knowledge and skills is integrated with their practical application, (3) assessment to be based on evidence that demonstrates that a learner could demonstrate these skills and knowledge in other similar situations and, (4) judgement of competence is based on evidence of learner performance that is aligned to the unit/s of competency and associated assessment requirements. Reliability – evidence presented for assessment is consistently interpreted and assessment results are comparable irrespective of the assessor conducting the assessment.

	Procedures and Specifications of the Assessment
	Task 1 Learners are required to achieve an understanding of how the Australian government support the innovation growth in the country through its ‘The Innovation Connections’ initiative. Choosing from a selection of case studies located in the Moodle (folder labelled BSBINN501 case studies), Learners are to provide an idea pitch to senior management (your trainer would undertake this role) to propose an innovative idea for the selected company to consider as part of its future business objectives. Learners are to use the template within this assessment tool to develop a potential idea that could provide a new product/ service that is innovative within the local industry in Australia. This idea should not be happening currently here, but elements of it, or very similar projects could be happening outside of Australia or the company. The idea pitch demonstration would lead the Learner to work through the process of developing an idea, pitch the idea proposal and obtain feedback on the areas presented which includes: ·         Section 1 – Idea overview ·         Section 2 – Measuring market potential ·         Section 3 – The conceptual idea ·         Section 4 – Value proposition The idea pitch would be assessed based on criteria on the following: ·   The criteria assessment is defined against the 4 sections which would have a ‘Yes’, ‘Pending’ and ‘No’ check boxes with a commentary column to provide additional information/ rationale to the evaluation. ·     A scoring system would be tabulated according to the number of check boxes indicated during the evaluation step (as above) to derive a relative measure to ascertain the approval decision for the idea pitched. This would also include feedback and approval from senior management (your trainer would undertake this role).
	Task 2 The learner is required to then required to: ·         explain how the new system supports innovation in the organisation ·         explain the concepts and theories of change management including ways of introducing change in different organisational contexts and change management communication strategies ·    explain the concepts and theories of innovation and how these link to innovation in practice ·         explain techniques for generating, testing and evaluating concepts and options for new systems ·         analyse the technical context in which the system is being developed ·         outline the typical ways in which systems may present barriers to innovation.
