Evidence Required

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria Required Skills and Knowledge the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Evidence of the following is essential

location interpretation and application of relevant information standards and specifications

compliance with organisation safety policies and procedures and OHS legislationregulationscodes of practice applicable to operations

compliance with organisation policies and procedures including quality requirements

safe and effective operational use of tools and equipment

communication and working effectively and safely with others

completion of the diagnosis rectification and reassembly to specification covering a minimum of five significant assembly faults including those requiring

the removal and reassembly of the instrument

panel

the disassembly and reassembly of door

components

the replacement of upholstery

the replacement of trimming

completion of diagnosis and rectification to specification of sealing system faults on a minimum of five separate vehicles including a minimum of

one involving a door

one involving a windscreen seal

one involving a boot seal fault and

one involving the forward passenger

compartment floor

Context of and specific resources for assessment

assessment of the competency should take place in a safe working environment in a passenger motor vehicle manufacturing plant or simulated environment using toolsequipmentmachinery required for the production process without undue disruption to the production process

assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices safety requirements and environmental constraints

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge The following examples are appropriate for this unit

assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance over time and in a range of organisation relevant contexts together with application of underpinning knowledge

assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application

assessment may be applied under project related conditions real or simulated and require evidence of process

assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance but is able to be transferred to other circumstances
