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 skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

plan the fabrication and installation of shower screens and wardrobe doors

interpret work order/job instruction and locate and apply relevant information to fabricate and install shower screens and wardrobe doors

apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required product quality

as a minimum:

measure for fabrication and installation of two (2) of the following in accordance with AS 3740:2010 Waterproofing of domestic wet areas:

sliding shower door

pivot shower door

semi-frameless and frameless shower screens

measure for installation of wardrobe doors:

work from product specification data sheets identifying and selecting product materials

select glass in accordance with AS 1288:2006 Glass in buildings - Selections and installation

fabricate frame and sash components, including cutting, tooling and drilling

identify, select and install component hardware, including weather seals, wheels, hinges, guides and handles

assemble frames, including glass and gaskets

install shower screens and wardrobe doors

calculate the cost of shower screens and wardrobe doors

work effectively with others.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace.

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context.

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standard requirements.

The following resources should be made available:

shower screen/wardrobe door glass and mirror

aluminium framing material

fixtures

waterproof sealant

workplace operating procedures

personal protective equipment

an appropriate work area.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 Furnishing Industry Training Package.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge.

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.
