Evidence Required
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.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Knowledge and Skills, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package. | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency | Evidence of the following is essential: Assessor must be satisfied that sufficient knowledge and understanding of multimedia and related production processes (as outlined in each Element) have been demonstrated so that job procedures, requirements and modifications can be intelligently discussed in some detail with a tradesperson, programmer, technician, production manager or client Successful assessment of Certificate III level multimedia units of competency Evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | Assessment must ensure: assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of these. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment |
Method of assessment | A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate. |
Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended. |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Required Knowledge and Skills |
The following knowledge must be assessed as part of this unit: This unit underpins all Certificate III level multimedia units of competency. |
The following skills must be assessed as part of this unit: OHS in relation to operating machinery such as safely switching off machinery before cleaning is started Communication of ideas and information by accurately using correct printing industry terminology and vocabulary Collecting, analysing and organising information by monitoring trends within the multimedia sector on an ongoing basis to inform personal work practices Planning and organising activities by considering and implementing, where required, basic principles of efficient production management Teamwork when implementing procedures that ensure effective colour management Mathematical ideas and techniques by understanding and using as required different output settings eg screen rulings and angles, shapes Problem-solving skills by considering and implementing, where required, ways of maximising efficiency of capital and human resources during different jobs Use of technology by understanding and applying to the development process, where applicable, multimedia platforms and computer systems requirements for different multimedia products |
The Range Statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Italicised wording in the Performance Criteria is detailed below. | |
Level of knowledge | Knowledge required to intelligently discuss job procedures, requirements and modifications with a tradesperson, programmer, technician, production manager or client |
Degree of autonomy | Working in consultation with others |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
