performance requirements included in this subject.
The assessment is divided into two (2) parts: The Project Assessment and the Case
Study.
The Project Assessment is a set of tasks that must be completed in a workplace, or
in an environment with conditions similar to that of a real workplace.
The Case Study Assessment is a set of hypothetical situations which will not require
you to have access to a workplace; although, your past and present workplace
experiences may help with the responses you provide.
This project requires you to complete a set of questions that will help you
demonstrate your commitment to empowering people with disability in a support
environment.
