Assessment Overview
Assessment Grading
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of 'pass' in order to pass the unit. If any 'pass/fail' tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully ('pass' grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the 'assessment task' section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%). Consult the University's Grades and Results Policy for more details of interim results and final grades.

This unit is an element in the required content for accreditation for Certified Practicing Valuer with the Australian Property Institute.
Students will have the opportunity to pursue Estate Master professional accreditation as an extension to the core activities in this unit related to development analysis. Estate Master accreditation is a widely recognised industry standard within the Australian and international development industry and can benefit the career prospects of students. Accreditation is independent of the university, however students receive a special student package which includes extended student access to the software and a heavily discounted accreditation. Details of how to pursue accreditation will be found on the Moodle site for this unit.
