Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the loose and fitted covers that they have fabricated and fitted, e.g. work orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:

workplace instructions
PPE required to fabricate and fit loose and fitted covers
materials required to fabricate and fit loose and fitted covers
two different vehicles requiring seat covers to be fitted
tools, equipment and materials appropriate for fabricating and fitting loose and fitted covers.
