Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task.

Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

OHS in relation to operating machinery such as safely switching off machinery before cleaning is started

communication of ideas and information by setting baselines for the production and budget estimation

collecting, analysing and organising information by reviewing reports and identifying possible process improvements

planning and organising activities by identifying resources required for the current and future steps and confirming availability

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

mathematical ideas and techniques by assigning each new job a unique identification number

problem-solving skills by evaluating job progress and identifying any improvement modifications to the workflow

use of technology by using equipment to monitor workflow, assess job steps and evaluate work progress

Required knowledge

setting baselines

business/production workflows

process improvement

job assessment

scheduling

resource allocation

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Nature of the actions may include:

ordering, coordinating, modifying.

Technical guidance may include:

the competencies relate to personnel who provide technical guidance and assistance to work teams.

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.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice Yes No Comments/feedback
Each new job is assigned a unique identification number 
Baselines are set for the production and budget estimation 
The number of actions or steps are identified for each job 
The nature of the actions are identified 
The job step is identified using business workflow tools 
The current step is compared against any baselines set for the job 
The number of steps and iterations are identified and any corrective action undertaken if necessary 
Actions within each step are logical to the step 
Resources required for the current and future steps are identified and availability confirmed 
Job progress is evaluated and any improvement modifications to the workflow are identified 
Parallel activities have been fully utilised to meet baselines and quality standards 
Reports are reviewed and possible process improvements identified
