In this powerful episode, Angela Connell-Richards sits down with assessment expert Maciek Fibriek to unpack one of the most critical topics under the new 2025 Standards—assessment practices and audit readiness.

Together, they dive deep into:

✅ What’s actually changed under Standard 1.3
✅ Why fit-for-purpose assessment means contextualising for your learner cohort
✅ How to test, validate, and align your tools to ensure compliance
✅ The role of AI in developing assessments—myths, risks, and best practice
✅ Real-world audit insights and red flags to avoid
✅ Why consistent validation and a culture of compliance are key

Maciek shares practical strategies, client stories, and common compliance pitfalls, including what ASQA is really looking for when they review your assessments. From AI-generated tools to LMS adaptations, no stone is left unturned.

Whether you’re preparing for audit, re-registration, or just want peace of mind—this episode will guide you on how to create assessments that are valid, reliable, and aligned to industry outcomes.
