Assessment:

Develop a Case history and a Venue Condition Assessment Form

Prior to commencing the assessment you will need to select a venue to assess. If you currently work in a hospitality venue, then it is recommended to choose this because of ease of access. Otherwise, you can choose a venue you are familiar with and have relatively easy access to. It is beneficial if you are able to speak with the proprietors/managers to gain proprietary information.

There are two parts to this Assessment which assess the learning in Topics 2-5.

Part 1: Case History

You are required to write a brief case history of your chosen venue, and this should be considered as a prelude to Assessment 2. The case history should include;

- A description of the venue, its location, size and purpose.
- A history of the site, including any refurbishments or improvements. Providing values for these will add context and value.
- Current operating condition and maintenance schedule of the venue.
- A floor plan for the relevant Venue Condition Assessment

Part 2: Design a blank Venue Condition Assessment form

A VCA form is a record that allows the assessed condition of a venue to be measured. Its format is open to interpretation, however, a standard format may include;

- A table or spreadsheet in landscape format.
- A vertical menu on the LHS that covers critical components of the venue. Section headings may include, for example, structure, fixtures and fittings, equipment, services. Details of each section should then be listed.
- A horizontal menu across the top will list how the venue will be assessed/evaluated and must include at least one theoretical framework.

NB: There is no need to undertake the actual assessment now. You are designing the form that will be used in Assessment 2 when the
actual VCA will be conducted. You will have the chance to adjust the form between Assessments 1 and 2 after you received feedback.

NBB: There is no need for Recommendations in this report.
