Resource implications | Frames, glass, fixing material, sealants, workplace operating procedures and work orders, personal protective equipment and an appropriate work area/site. |
Method of assessment | Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts. Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge. Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other relevant units of competency. |
Context of assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant glazing equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines. |
