Mapping Matrix Information for the Assessor Purpose and Structure of the Mapping Matrix is a process of gathering over time. The Mapping Matrix is designed to assist you, the assessor, to analyse the as it is gathered and make a judgement as to whether is sufficient at each stage in the process. Each table in the matrix lists all of the unit requirements: There are 5 columns in the Mapping Matrix that match the instruments in this RPL Tool. The checkboxes reflect the internal in each of the assessment instruments. Where the cell is greyed out, the instrument does not map to that specific unit requirement. We strongly recommend that you complete the Mapping Matrix at each stage in the gathering process. This will enable you to make a judgement as to whether is sufficient, or whether more is required. In order to confirm competency in a unit, there should be at least one tick in each of the rows. It is not necessary to tick all of the checkboxes in order to make a judgement of competency. There is a comments section at the bottom of each unit table where you can record your decision and your reasons for the decision. Note: The decision as to whether the candidate is competent remains with you, the assessor, on the basis of your expert and qualified judgement. The above recommendations are only a guide.
