Important things to note about Grades in Connect
 The Grades tool is the central place where results from all assessment items
in your unit are collected.
o Grades can collect results from any assessment tool in Connect e.g.
Quiz, Dropbox.
o Grades can also collect results from an offline activity e.g. Practical
activity.
 Connect grades are taken into account, but your final result for a unit of
competency is calculated and released separately to you.

3. Once you have achieved a satisfactory result for all assessment items, this will be
reflected in your Final Calculated Grade.
NB: a final calculated grade in Connect does not reflect your final result for a unit of
competency e.g. Competent/Not yet Competent.
