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.
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Prepare for the task | 1.1 | Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work |
1.2 | Purpose and operational characteristics of object to be drawn are identified |
1.3 | Production materials and methods are identified |
2 | Establish design requirements and limitations | 2.1 | Type of drawing to be completed is identified |
2.2 | Design concept requirements are established and documented identifying dimensions, angles, shapes and finished size |
2.3 | Drawing conventions and specifications to be noted on the drawing are identified |
2.4 | Appropriate medium for drawings is identified and selected |
3 | Quantify and draft initial drawing | 3.1 | Dimensions are plotted from prototype sketch and documented specifications |
3.2 | Dimensional points are connected to match appropriate drawing view |
3.3 | Any production notes or special requirements are noted |
3.4 | Drawing conventions and specifications are noted on the documentation |
4 | Complete drawing | 4.1 | Angles, shapes and dimensions are checked against specifications and concept prototype drawing |
4.2 | Adjustments are made to the drawing within scope of authority |
4.3 | Drawing is checked for compliance with workplace documentation requirements |
Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information
Identify materials used in the work process
Interpret specifications and measurements in two and three-dimensional form
Satisfy ergonomic criteria during the drawing process
Present relevant information within the production drawing using both manual and computer-aided processes and techniques
Use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements
Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage
Manual and computer-aided drawing processes and techniques
Ergonomic principles for furniture design and manufacture
Presentation standards
Enterprise or equivalent operating procedures, including procedures for preparing drawings and presenting information
Relevant regulatory requirements, recognised standards and codes, and industry practices
Assessors must:
hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
Access is required to design concept, specifications, dimensions and drawing equipment.
