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	The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to workplace operations and satisfy all of the requirements of the performance criteria and required skills and knowledge A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to source interpret and apply VSB specifications ADRs workplace policies and procedures and manufacturer requirements to heavy vehicle construction and modification check compliance of engineering drawings and working drawings against VSB specifications ADRs workplace policies and procedures and manufacturer requirements record compliance checks and report nonconformances
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated workplace environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting Assessment is to occur using standard workplace practices and procedures following safety requirements applying environmental constraints Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory requirements Australian standards industry codes of practice The following resources must be made available for the assessment of this unit computer with internet access engineering drawings and working drawings workplace policies and procedures
Method of assessment	Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of this Training Package Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts together with the application of required skills and knowledge Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on required skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other units which together form part of a holistic work role Where applicable reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate the needs of diverse clients Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally sensitive and appropriate to the language literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed
