Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to apply digital workflow from concept stage to completion and delivery. It focuses on a basic knowledge and application of digital work processes, where another person is responsible for overall planning.

It applies to individuals working under supervision in any type of digital production area.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


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.

ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Prepare for digital workflow

1.1 Job requirements are obtained, correctly interpreted and confirmed

1.2 Digital work processes required for completing the job are identified and recorded

1.3 Equipment and materials are selected to meet job requirements

1.4 Software appropriate to the work application is selected

1.5 Safety requirements are followed according to safety plans and policies

2. Follow digital workflow

2.1 Work is performed in a logical and efficient sequence

2.2 Problems are identified and solutions found within scope of role based on knowledge of digital process

2.3 Tasks are completed and checked for compliance against work instructions

3. Maintain the workplace

3.1 Work area is cleared and materials disposed of or recycled in accordance with environmental management plan

3.2 Equipment is cleaned, checked, maintained and stored according to manufacturer's recommendations and standard work practices

Evidence of the ability to:

produce at least TWO products by following correct processes in a digital workflow:

correctly interpret requirements

select appropriate equipment and software

complete tasks according to job requirements

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:

describe the different aspects of a digital workflow:

content confirmation

scheduling

communication processes

file management – naming, storage, saving, archiving

editing processes

distribution

discuss the order procedures are undertaken within a digital workflow

discuss different problems that may occur in a digital workflow and ways these may be avoided or addressed

identify types of equipment used in a digital workflow

explain types of software used in a digital workflow, their key features and purpose

describe printing and other publication processes used within a digital workflow

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 printing field of work and include access to:

special purpose tools, equipment and materials

high-end graphics and layout software

digital output devices.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Submission Requirements

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.
