For trainers and assessors

How to use CAQA Summit Sport and Recreation with your students, what is included, and the mapping to the Sport, Fitness and Recreation Training Package.

SIS release 6.1HumanAbility
What is included

One simulated business, ready for assessment

A complete fictional employer

Public site and staff intranet for one business in the industry, with its history, services, values, locations, six departments and ten named roles. Everything is fictional and labelled as such on every page.

14 controlled documents

Policies, procedures, forms, templates, a register and a plan written in controlled-document style with document codes, owners, versions and review dates. Forms and templates are fillable on screen and print to PDF.

5 working systems

Record-keeping apps with realistic seed data: table, card and board views, add, edit, delete, search, filter, CSV export and a one-click reset. Records are stored in the student's browser, so every student starts from the same seed data.

Inbox, notices and calendar

Eight work requests from managers and colleagues that point the student at scenarios, documents and systems, a notice board, and a business calendar the student can add to.

8 assessment scenarios

Role-based workplace tasks at Entry, Intermediate and Advanced level, each with context, brief, task checklist, deliverables, linked documents and systems, assessor notes and a printable evidence summary.

Mapping to current units

Every scenario is mapped to current units of competency and qualifications on training.gov.au for this training package, so trainers can align tasks to their own assessment tools.

How to use it

A typical delivery pattern

  1. Orient the class. Walk students through the home page, the departments and the people so the business feels real before any task begins. Ask them to read About this simulation.
  2. Assign roles. Students sign in as the role a scenario names (or one you choose). The choice is stored only in their browser and shapes the greeting, inbox and evidence summary.
  3. Issue the work request. The inbox message for a scenario reads like a real instruction from a manager. Students open it, follow the link to the scenario and read the brief.
  4. Work in the systems and documents. Tasks tell students which policy to apply, which form to complete and which system record to create or update. Forms print to PDF; systems export CSV.
  5. Collect evidence. The scenario page ticks off tasks and prints an evidence summary listing every record the student created or changed, their notes and the units mapped. Combine it with your own observation checklist and questions.
  6. Reset between cohorts. Each browser starts from the same seed data. A reset on the About this simulation page clears everything a student did on that device.
Unit mapping

Scenarios mapped to current units

Codes and titles were taken from training.gov.au on 10 September 2026 (Sport, Fitness and Recreation Training Package, release 6.1, developed by HumanAbility). Mapping shows which units a scenario gives evidence towards; it is not a substitute for your own assessment mapping.

Delivery format

Delivery and LMS compatibility

Hosted web application

Runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone. No installation, no plug-ins, no student accounts. Each package has its own address, for example bsb.caqa.com.

LMS ready

Link to the whole site, a scenario or a single document from Moodle, Canvas, aXcelerate, Cloud Assess, Blackboard or any LMS that can open a web link. A SCORM wrapper that launches the site and records completion can be supplied on request.

Privacy by design

Student entries stay in the student's browser (local storage). Nothing is sent to CAQA or to any server, so no personal information is collected and no accounts are needed. Students print or export their evidence for submission.

Accessibility and motion

Keyboard navigable, screen-reader labels on controls, reduced-motion support and a visible Motion toggle on every page.

Licensing

Licensing and usage

RTO licence

Licensed to the RTO under the CAQA Resources licence agreement for use with its enrolled students and staff across all its campuses and delivery modes. Contact CAQA for pricing and reseller terms.

Customisation

Branding and customisation

Branding

A private copy with the RTO's own business name, colours and logo can be produced on its own address.

Content

Extra documents, scenarios, systems and staff roles can be added, and existing ones adjusted to match the RTO's assessment tools, industry partners or state requirements.

Integration

Deep links per scenario and per document, optional SCORM launch package, and evidence summaries in a format that suits the RTO's assessment records.

FAQ

Questions trainers ask

How do I use this simulated sport and recreation organisation with my students?

Choose the department that matches your unit, whether fitness, aquatics, outdoor recreation, community sport or facilities, pick a scenario, give the student the role and the inbox message and let them work through the documents and systems as a new staff member would. The assessor notes list the evidence to collect.

How do students sign in?

Students open the site, choose Enter the workplace and pick a role from the staff list. No password is required and the site keeps their records in the browser they use, so they must return on the same device to continue.

How are records kept and can I see what a student entered?

Every record created in a system is stored in the student's browser and can be exported as a file from the system screen. Ask students to export their records and submit them with their deliverables.

How do I reset a system to the starting data?

Open the system and use the Reset to seed data control in the toolbar. This removes the student's records for that system and reloads the eight starting records. Export first if the work needs to be kept.

Can I customise the sites, programs or scenarios?

Yes. Trainers with a CAQA licence can download the content file, edit the policies, people and scenarios, for example to reflect their state's child safe standards or water quality guidelines, and rebuild the site with the CAQA tool.

Do the aquatic and outdoor scenarios replace practical assessment?

No. The scenarios provide the planning, record-keeping and decision-making evidence and a realistic context, but rescues, first aid, swimming instruction and outdoor leadership skills must still be observed in the water or the field as the unit's performance evidence requires.
