Reasonable Adjustments

An adjustment is any measure or action that you may require because of a disability, which has the effect of assisting you to access and participate in education and training on the same basis as students without a disability.  An adjustment is reasonable if it achieves this purpose while taking into account factors such as the nature of your disability, your views, and the potential effect of the adjustment on yourself and others, who might be affected, and the costs and benefits of making the adjustment.

We must maintain the academic integrity of a course and consider the requirements or components that are inherent or essential to its nature when assessing whether an adjustment is reasonable.  There may be more than one adjustment that is reasonable in a given set of circumstances.  We will make adjustments that are reasonable and that do not cause unjustifiable hardship to you and our organisation.

If at any time whilst you are undertaking the CPCCBC5005 Selecting and manage building and construction contractors assessment and you require further clarification on the task or you believe you require an assessment to be adjusted due to a disability or other impacting situations, please speak to your trainer/assessor for further information or possible options.  During the assessment process your trainer/assessor can assist you with gaining an understanding of the task, but they are unable to provide you with the response or any answers.
