Assessing your competence in this unit

 In this unit you must be able to demonstrate your underpinning knowledge and ability to perform the tasks relating directly to the learning outcomes and performance criteria. This means that you have to demonstrate that you are competent at interpreting the legislation applicable to property management processes, and can correctly apply ethical principles in your dealings with clients.

This assessment pack includes three forms of assessment:

·         Multiple Choice Questions (Part A)

 ·         Written Answer Questions (Part B)

 ·         Case Study (Part C)

Part A — Multiple Choice questions

 This section contains 21 questions. Please carefully read each question before answering. Most questions are multiple choice and you should circle the letter of the responses which best answers the question or completes the statement most accurately. Some questions may have more than one correct answer, and that is indicated in the question itself.

 For true / false questions, circle either the word ‘true’ or 'false’ to match your response to the question.

 In mix and match questions, you are required to match the column of key words presented on the left hand column to the right hand column. 

Part B - Short Question Answers:

Part B of this assessment comprises a series of questions relating to the elements and performance criteria for this unit of competency. The questions have been mapped to the assessment criteria for this unit of competency, as well as to the required skills and knowledge and understanding.

Answers should be one or two paragraphs in length, and, where appropriate, mention the applicable legislation

Part C - Case Study

 In Part C of the assessment you will be required to answer the questions in the case study scenarios. The case studies should be completed after you have submitted your assessment work for Parts A, and B.

Your assessor will be looking to see how you respond to questions and for the skills and knowledge that you would need to apply to a satisfactory standard.

 The timescale for return of your written questions and answers will be advised by your trainer / assessor.
