This unit applies to work conducted in the on-site installation of cabinets within a kitchen, bathroom or ancillary residential environment. Application of components includes all fixtures and fittings required to complete the cabinet installation.

Cabinets may be custom made or mass manufactured and include complete components such as doors, shelves and drawers.

This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to install cabinets according to specifications and design plans, including the application of selected components to achieve a quality finish. This unit requires an ability to access and apply information and instruction for the use of components and cabinet products.

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.

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

Access and apply information on installation requirements of cabinet components

Interpret installation requirements

Apply problem solving techniques to determine and address installation techniques or issues

Complete range of operations to install cabinets

Use hand and power tools safely and efficiently

Conduct quality checks

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 Standards requirements

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

tools required for measurement and completing installation

plans, drawings and manuals relating to cabinet installation

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the 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
