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. Design documents to meet organisational needs

1.1 Determine basic design guidelines and requirements

1.2 Select appropriate application software

1.3 Use application software to design and configure document templates for use in a business environment

2. Use application software to develop documents

2.1 Use application software as per specifications to develop documents

2.2 Access, retrieve, manipulate and save document files

2.3 Amend designs according to organisational requirements

2.4 Store documents for wider access and editing as required

3. Evaluate and incorporate feedback

3.1 Obtain document sign-off from appropriate person

3.2 Incorporate feedback and update document

Evidence of the ability to:

produce a workplace document using a range of features

develop several workplace documents with minimal instruction on their design from end user or supervisor.

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:

identify features of application packages

explain current business practices related to preparing organisational documents

recognise industry standard input and output devices

identify organisational documentation and style guides

identify organisational storage and retrieval procedures.

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 general information and communications technology (ICT) industry, and include access to:

organisational requirements and a template for the documents

a personal computer (PC), scanner and laser printer

word-processing facilities

presentation software applications.

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.
