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.

Critical aspects of evidence

Recognise the basic categories of art and the medium used in their production

Recognise frames and the medium used in their production

Identify defects in artwork and frames and determine appropriate restoration/conservation techniques

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment, safety and environmental protection 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 production output and product quality

As a minimum, from five items of artwork representing various media and era, recognise:

era

artwork medium and material

any historical/monetary/sentimental significance

handling and storage requirements

impact on techniques

materials to be used for framing

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Resource implications

Historical information, workplace procedures, work area and artwork for conservation framing.

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 should be conducted over time and may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency which form a part of the job role.

Context of assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant framed artwork, equipment, simulated work instructions and deadlines.

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

plan and organise activities, including the preparation and layout of the work area and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate quantities and estimate material requirements

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate cutting problems, avoid re-working and wastage

use the workplace technology related to the recognition of artwork and its restoration/conservation

Required knowledge

major categories of art media

liabilities and obligations relating to framing artwork

framing materials and techniques

materials used in artworks

chemical reactions between artworks and framing materials

restoration/conservation techniques for artwork and frames

operation requirements of equipment and work systems in work area

understand the effect of this process on the artwork

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.

Unit context

Work requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the recognition and handling of artwork, and in identifying restoration/conservation techniques

OHS requirements may include legislation, standards, material safety management systems and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, environment legislation, manual handling procedures and relevant regulations and organisation insurance requirements

Work may be performed in workplaces which are involved in the framing of artwork and documents of sufficient value to require the application of conservation framing techniques

Recognise artwork

the identification of all forms of artwork in order to determine appropriate presentation and/or restoration/conservation techniques

Artwork may include, but is not limited to:

original works of art (oil and watercolour)

original prints

reproductions

needlework

textiles

photographs

certificates and memorabilia (including 3D objects)

Damage to artwork may be caused by but is not limited to:

light

temperature

humidity

physical damage

insects

pollution

Personal protection equipment

Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices

Information and procedures

Historical and/or monetary value

Legal implications

Industry conservation standards and requirements

Work instructions, including job sheets, plans, drawings and designs

Literature relating to the history and conservation of artwork

Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication

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.
