Study Resources

This section supports both new and experienced learners to build strong study habits and develop the practical skills needed for vocational training.

Preparing for:

Online Study

Make a Personal Commitment

Online study can be challenging, especially if this is your first time and you are balancing work, life and study commitments.

You may occasionally be tempted to cut corners or stop altogether. To help you stay focused, it's important to remember why you enrolled and what you want to achieve.

Write this down and display it in a prominent place as an ongoing reminder.

Set up your study space

As tempting as it might be, lying on the couch with your laptop while watching Netflix isn't a great way to study. Just as you would attend classes on campus, you should have a dedicated space to study at home.

Being in your study space signals to you and others in your home that you're in study mode. You don't need an entire office, but you do need a space that gives you the best chance of properly engaging with your studies. Your study space should be:

Comfortable
Free from distraction
Fit for purpose

It’s worth paying attention to your setup. The kitchen bench might be fine for a little while, but over time it can affect your posture and lead to discomfort or even injury. It can also make it harder to stay focused and productive.

Placements

Placement is a valuable part of training at RiteSkill. It gives learners a chance to apply their knowledge in a real workplace, develop confidence and understand what day-to-day practice actually looks like. This page helps you feel prepared before you begin.

What placement involves

During placement, you’ll work alongside experienced staff who will guide you through tasks that align with your training. You’ll observe, ask questions and gradually take on activities as appropriate to your level of experience. Placement is not an exam. It’s a supported learning opportunity designed to help you grow.

What you need to organise

Every placement has slightly different requirements, but most learners will need to:
• confirm their start date, hours and location
• complete any required checks or forms
• understand the workplace’s expectations for dress, behaviour and communication
• plan travel and any personal commitments around their shifts

If your course has a Placement Record or Workbook, it’s a good idea to look at it before you start so you know what kinds of experiences to watch out for.

Professional expectations

When you attend placement, you are representing both yourself and RiteSkill. This means:
• arriving on time and communicating if you’re unwell
• following instructions from supervisors
• respecting privacy and confidentiality
• using safe work practices
• being open to feedback and willing to learn

Workplaces don’t expect you to know everything. They do expect professionalism, curiosity and respect.

Health and safety

Before placement, take a moment to review basic WHS principles. Each workplace will have its own safety procedures, but the general expectations remain the same: stay aware of your environment, use equipment safely and speak up if something feels unsafe or unclear.

Getting the most out of the experience

The more engaged you are, the more valuable your placement will be.
A few helpful habits include:
• asking questions when something interests or confuses you
• taking short notes after each shift to help with reflection
• observing how experienced staff communicate and organise their work
• being open to tasks that help build your confidence, even if they feel new at first

If you need support

If anything unexpected happens during placement, or if you’re unsure about a task, you can always contact your trainer or the RiteSkill support team. We’re here to help you navigate challenges, make adjustments if needed and ensure your placement is a safe, positive experience.

Assessments

Assessments and assignments are an essential part of your training. They help you show your understanding of the unit content and demonstrate the skills needed for your qualification. At RiteSkill, we keep these tasks practical, fair and aligned with real workplace expectations.

What assessments involve

Assessments are usually short quizzes or knowledge checks. They’re designed to help you confirm your understanding of key concepts and identify any areas you’d like to strengthen. Most assessments can be completed online and focus on the core knowledge required for each unit.

What assignments involve

Assignments are tasks where you submit written work, evidence or responses to scenarios. They allow you to demonstrate your ability to apply knowledge, think through workplace situations and reflect on what you’ve learned. Assignments may also include uploading documents, photos or short videos where relevant to your training.

What you need to organise

To complete assessments and assignments smoothly, it helps to:
• check the instructions carefully before you start
• make sure you know the due date
• confirm how and where to submit your work
• gather any documents, templates or evidence you may need

If you’re unsure about anything, you can always ask your trainer to clarify what the task requires.

Professional expectations

Your submissions should reflect your own learning and your own words. This means:
• writing clearly and honestly
• answering each part of the question
• using your own examples where appropriate
• avoiding copying from other learners or online sources

Trainers aren’t looking for “perfect” academic language. They’re looking for clear understanding and real evidence of your skills.

Tips for completing assessments

Most learners find it helpful to do the following:
• read all questions before answering
• pace yourself rather than rushing
• work in a quiet space
• double-check your answers before submitting
• reach out early if you need support or clarification

Remember, assessments are not there to catch you out. They’re an opportunity to show what you’ve learned.

Tips for completing assignments

Assignments usually take a bit more planning. You may find it useful to:
• break the task into smaller steps
• draft your responses and then edit them
• make sure your files are labelled and easy for your trainer to open
• review feedback from past tasks to help guide your approach
• check that you’ve included everything the instructions asked for

If something unexpected happens

If illness, injury or personal circumstances affect your ability to complete a quiz or submit an assignment, you can reach out for support. The Accident or Misadventure form is available if you need to request adjustments, and the team can work with you to plan next steps.

If you’re feeling unsure

It’s completely normal to feel uncertain about an assessment or assignment from time to time. Your trainer is there to help. Reaching out early means we can support you properly, answer your questions and help you move forward with confidence.
