INTRODUCTION

This Assessment Booklet provides you with information and your assessment tasks for this unit. A requirement of your qualification, from which the unit of competence is taken, is the application of the concepts you have been learning.

The assessment activities are an important part of your course as they provide an opportunity to apply what you have been learning and they give both you and your trainer feedback on your progress.

Please read this section carefully before commencing the assessment tasks.

RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING

If you can demonstrate that you have the skills and knowledge within this unit, you should speak to a trainer/assessor about this and apply for recognition of prior learning.

COMPLETING YOUR ASSESSMENTS

Prior to Assessment

You must be advised of your rights before and after the assessments including the right to appeal.

Assessors must provide you with all relevant information relating to the assessments prior to commencement and of the appeals procedure that can be utilised if you wish to appeal against the assessment outcome or make a complaint.

Submitting Assessments

Each part of this assessment booklet needs to be carefully completed and you are required to attain a ‘satisfactory’ mark for each of the assessment activities. Full details of what is required have been detailed in instructions before each assessment task.

You must submit assessment tasks with the cover sheet provided at the end of this Booklet. You must attach one cover sheet per assessment upon submission, ticking the relevant assessment box. Ensure you sign the form after completion.

Assessments should be submitted on or before their due date. Extensions for individual assessment tasks may be negotiated in specific circumstances. Consultation on this must occur prior to the due date and extensions due to illness will require a medical certificate. Extensions will be confirmed to you in writing.

Plagiarism and Referencing

Sources of information, ideas etc. must be provided in alphabetical order by author’s surname (including author’s full name, name of document/ book/internet etc. and year and place of publishing) or may be included in brackets in the text.

ASSESSMENT OUTCOMES

The evidence you submit will be assessed and you will be given written feedback. Each assessment task will be marked as either Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory and once all assessments have been marked you will be given an outcome of Competent or Not Competent for the unit of competence. Upon demonstrating competence, you will be awarded this unit. If you are assessed as Not Competent, you will be given some suggestions for improvement and asked to redo your assessment.

Re-assessment

In the event you are deemed Unsatisfactory, you will be allowed two (2) further attempts at an assessment within the timeframe of this course.

As part of the assessment process, you must abide by any relevant assessment policies as provided to you. If you feel you are not yet ready to be assessed or this assessment is unfair, you should be offered the opportunity to discuss all options that are available to you to complete the assessment.

Reasonable Adjustment

RTOs and Trainers/Assessors are obliged by law to make reasonable adjustment to ensure maximum participation of students with disability in teaching, learning and assessment activities.

This includes:

ensuring that course activities are sufficiently flexible;

providing additional support where necessary; and

offering a reasonable substitute within the context of the course where a student cannot participate.

Reasonable adjustment is defined in section 4(1) of the Employment and the Disability Discrimination Act as ‘an adjustment to be made by a person is a reasonable adjustment unless making the adjustment would impose an unjustifiable hardship on the person’. Reasonable adjustment as it applies to participation in learning and assessment activities may include:

§ customising resources or activities within a training package or accredited course;

§ modifying a presentation medium;

§ providing additional support;

§ providing assistive or adaptive technologies;

§ making additional information accessible both before enrolment and during the course; and § monitoring these adjustments to ensure that the student’s needs continue to be met.

An individual’s access to the assessment process should not be adversely affected by restrictions placed on the location or context of assessment beyond the requirements specified in the training package. Reasonable adjustments can be made to ensure equity in assessment for people with disabilities. Adjustments include any changes to the assessment process or context that meet the individual needs of the person with a disability, but do not change competency outcomes.

The assessment process must:

§ Provide for valid, reliable, flexible and fair assessment

§ Provide for judgement to be made on the basis of sufficient evidence § Offer valid, authentic and current evidence.

FUJI XEROX AUSTRALIA BUSINESS EQUIOMENT

Fuji Xerox Australia Business Equipment Case Study

Tripled leads for 60% less marketing spend

In 90 days, we doubled web lead flow with lower marketing costs.

Paul Strahl , National e-Business Manager, Fuji Xerox Australia.

ZOOM IN

Background:

Fuji Xerox Australia is the global market leader in office machines, digital printing, document management and related services.

They had identified the online channel as a source of high-quality sales leads and were looking to develop an online marketing strategy that would increase lead volume without reducing lead quality or increasing average cost .

Objectives

1. Increase lead flow from the FujiXerox.com.au website.

2. Generate more Pay Per Click leads at lower average cost by testing and optimising Google Adwords account settings.

3. Understand user clickstreams and behaviour better and translate that into a better customer experience and results.

How the objectives were achieved

1. Optimisation of Google AdWords accounts to increase qualified traffic flow.

2. Pinpointing and clearing traffic “roadblocks” on key pages that were preventing users from accessing key content and enquiring online.

Key Results

Web lead volume doubles in less than 3 months.

Fuji Xerox Australia generates 300% more leads via pay-per-click search engines for 60% less cost.

Fuji Xerox Australia gathers critical data to aid in understanding how clients are engaging with them online.

Fuji Xerox Australia National e-Business Manager Paul Strahl says…

“We had previously realised that the quality of leads from the site was good – we just wanted more of them.

We had dealt with another provider and found their approach to be too generic. Also, they didn’t have a finer understanding of how to tweak Google ads for maximum results.

The Marketing Results approach appealed to us because it focuses on traffic generation and conversion to generate leads. Most other providers only know about one or the other.

As a result of our first project, wedoubled monthly lead flow via our website and generated triple the leads from Google for 60% less marketing spend.

Marketing Results offers a very professional service,clear goals and milestones set and delivered.” (This Marketing Case Study has been approved by Fuji Xerox Australia.)

QUESTIONS:

Q.1

Briefly discuss any two-relevant legislation and regulations affecting marketing operations of Fuji

Xerox (Max. 300 words)

Q.2

Briefly discuss any two codes of practice and national standards affecting marketing operations of Fuji Xerox (Max. 300 words).
