Background Numerous qualitative and quantitative assessment methods for assessing components of intercultural capacity have been developed over the years including self-evaluations, surveys and questionnaires.

Contribution This commissioned report was completed in two separate components. The first was an environmental scan of all state and territory policy approaches on ICU within Australia and relevant international jurisdictions and agencies. A scan is a method used to get a sense of the field that is being investigated (Thompson 2012). The key method in the scan was an analysis of webpages and associated documents from the websites of these authorities. This analysis allowed the researcher to get an overview of what information is available on assessment in intercultural capability in order to define the research terms and objectives. The scan examined definitions, policy Significance Informing the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority on assessment of intercultural capability.Publication classification
