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 job requirements | 1.1 | Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs) |
| 1.2 | Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times |
| 1.3 | Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs |
| 1.4 | Identify job requirements from specifications, drawings, job sheets or work instructions |
|
2 | Prepare work pieces | 2.1 | Receive work bundle, check against ticket information and assess any follow-up action |
| 2.2 | Assess quality of received component parts |
| 2.3 | Lay out work pieces in correct sequence |
|
3 | Prepare workstation | 3.1 | Set up workstation according to work requirements and to achieve operator comfort and minimise fatigue |
| 3.2 | Clean and check tools and carry out minor maintenance to ensure they are ready for operations |
| 3.3 | Maintain records |
|
4 | Carry out table-based activities | 4.1 | Perform table-based operations, appropriate to production task, to quality specifications |
| 4.2 | Use tools according to WHS practices to achieve specifications |
| 4.3 | Use appropriate materials according to workplace procedures to achieve specifications |
| 4.4 | Maintain records |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include:
reading and following work instructions, standard operating procedures and safe work practices
applying relevant standards
checking work against ticket information and workplace standards
preparing workstation and work before commencing operations
applying techniques for at least five (5) table-based operations, according to workplace requirements
using processes and hand tools associated with table-based operations
carrying out minor tool maintenance
applying work health and safety (WHS) practices in work operations, with particular reference to adhesives and use of tools
applying workplace procedures
maintaining accurate records.
Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:
safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
relevant Australian Standards
characteristics of materials used in product construction
processes used to prepare or construct components and pieces
operating procedures for table-based production machines
quality standards and practices
workplace procedures
recording and reporting practices.
Assessors must:
satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment, as set by the VET regulator
have vocational competency in performing table-based operations for footwear, at least to the level being assessed, with relevant industry knowledge and experience.
Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
