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 | Determine design requirements | 1.1 | Client requirements for ancillary cabinetry are identified and verified with the client |
| | 1.2 | Design parameters are determined |
| | 1.3 | Site measurements are taken and recorded |
| | 1.4 | Design requirements and client information are documented |
2 | Develop design options | 2.1 | Drawings are completed to visually represent cabinet design ideas |
| | 2.2 | Cabinet design ideas and options are discussed with client |
| | 2.3 | Client preferences are determined and design option selected with the client |
3 | Develop design proposal | 3.1 | Measurements and dimensions are documented |
| | 3.2 | Structural features and components are identified |
| | 3.3 | Construction and installation requirements are determined |
| | 3.4 | Labour requirements are determined |
| | 3.5 | Costs involved to implement design are calculated |
| | 3.6 | Design proposal is developed and specifications documented |
| | 3.7 | Design documentation and quote is provided for client consideration |
Liaise with client to establish design requirements for ancillary residential cabinetry
Inspect the installation site to take measurements, identify available services and structural features and develop cabinetry design options to discuss with the client
Calculate trade and associated labour costs such as plant/equipment and overheads for completing the design brief work to specifications
Produce and present to the client a quote that documents cabinetry fabrication, installation and design costs in a manner that informs the client of their choices and the details of the inclusions
Confirm client choices for the cabinetry and complete design documentation, including drawings, costing and specifications for client approval
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 and the reporting of work outcomes and problems, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage
Work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity
Processes used for the construction and installation of cabinets
Features and limitations of cabinets and components
State or territory WHS legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to cabinets and components
Relevant information resources
Costing techniques
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, supervisor’s reports and completed design and quotation documentation for residential cabinetry.
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 work-related information resources.
