Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions provide hands-on experience in preparing floats, operating POS terminals, reconciling cash and chip transactions, and resolving discrepancies. Learners apply theoretical knowledge in simulated retail environments to build competence in float operations.

Practical Activities

• Float Preparation and Cash-Up Simulation — Learners prepare opening floats from a cash vault using correct denominations, then simulate end-of-shift cash-up and reconciliation. (4h)
• POS Terminal Operation and Chip Reconciliation — Learners operate a POS terminal to process chip and contactless payments, then reconcile chip transaction reports with cash totals. (4h)
• Multi-Till Reconciliation and Error Investigation — Learners reconcile multiple tills with mixed cash, coin, and chip transactions, including intentional errors to practice investigation. (4h)
• Float Operation Audit and Final Assessment — Learners conduct a mock float operation audit using a checklist, followed by a comprehensive practical assessment covering all skills. (4h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.
