2 | Plan conservation processes | 2.1 | Conservation sequence is identified and a work plan is developed |
| | 2.2 | Tools and equipment required for the conservation are identified |
| | 2.3 | Approval of conservation plan is obtained as required by agreed procedures |
3 | Prepare for the conservation process | 3.1 | Tools and equipment are positioned and checked prior to use to ensure they are appropriate for the task, serviceable and in a safe condition |
| | 3.2 | Plans and other documents are positioned to allow for confirmation of the panel structure |
| | 3.3 | Outline charcoal rubbings are made to confirm design during the process |
| | 3.4 | Photographs are taken of the panel for later reference |
4 | Conduct the conservation process | 4.1 | Components requiring conservation are cleaned or disposed of |
| | 4.2 | Decisions on conservation methods are confirmed |
| | 4.3 | Replacement materials are selected and prepared |
| | 4.4 | Measurements and tests are conducted to confirm conservation plan |
| | 4.5 | Panel is assembled and checked against original data |
5 | Finalise and report on the conservation process | 5.1 | Conserved leadlight and stained glass panel is inspected for quality of work and problems rectified |
| | 5.2 | Tools and equipment are removed, cleaned and stored appropriately |
| | 5.3 | Conservation area is cleaned and rubbish disposed of, as appropriate |
| | 5.4 | Panel is packaged and stored prior to movement and installation |
| | 5.5 | Conservation report is prepared and provided, as required |
Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information
Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment
Identify materials used in the work process
Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes to:
minimise the risk of injury to self or others
prevent damage to goods, equipment and products
maintain required production output and product quality
Identify and interpret heritage legislation as it applies to leadlight and stained glass panels
Identify historical leadlight and stained glass panel construction methods
Assess and make decisions on conservation methods
Identify faults and problems with leadlight and stained glass panels, and their remedial methods
Conserve at least two (2) different heritage leadlight and stained glass panels in accordance with industry best practice
Comply with legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and procedures for the assessment of conservation requirements of leadlight and stained glass panels
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
State or territory WHS legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to the full range of processes for leadlight and stained glass operations

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 a panel, materials, equipment and specifications relevant to the conservation of heritage leadlight and stained glass panels.
