List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 Read and interpret job requirements and locate materials | 1.1 Material requirements and quantities are correctly identified from documentation 1.2 Materials are located and checked according to enterprise procedures 1.3 Required quantities of material are confirmed and shortages and/or defective materials are reported and recorded |
2 Prepare materials | 2.1 Weighing and measuring devices are checked for accuracy and reset if required 2.2 Bowls, vats, tanks and pots are selected according to job specifications and checked to ensure they are free from contamination 2.3 Quantities of material are weighed or measured 2.4 Materials are prepared according to enterprise procedures 2.5 Quality checks are undertaken according to enterprise procedures 2.6 Materials are adjusted to conform to job specifications |
3 Transfer prepared materials to production area | 3.1 Prepared materials are stored, transferred or located according to enterprise and legislative requirements 3.2 Documentation is accurately completed according to enterprise procedures |
Evidence of the ability to:
locate, interpret and use information from various sources required to carry out tasks
select, measure, prepare and store TWO batches of materials for use in the production of ink or chemicals, according to manufacturer’s and job specifications and enterprise procedures
complete required documentation for each batch of materials according to enterprise procedures.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
list relevant information sources and for each source briefly outline why it is needed
summarise the health, safety and environmental considerations when completing ink production tasks including:
relevant enterprise procedures
potential hazards in the selection and preparation of materials for ink production
potential environmental issues when working with raw materials
safety equipment requirements
specify the details needed for selection of materials for ink production
briefly summarise the enterprise procedures for:
determining whether a material is defective
preparing materials and containers for ink production
recording the quantities and formulations
dealing with a shortage of materials
approving prepared materials prior to commencement of production
outline the checks needed during the preparation of materials required for ink production
summarise the methods or procedures for checking accuracy and resetting measuring devices used in the work area including at least:
scales
flow meters
graduated vessels
describe the purpose and correct use of equipment and machinery used to transfer materials to the preparation area.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the ink manufacture field of work and include access to:
enterprise documents and policies and procedures
raw materials, packaging materials, containers and consumables
machines or equipment for weighing, measuring and moving materials.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
