Overview of assessment

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

Evidence of the following is essential

Produce a basic fastened product that meets job specifications production timeframes and quality standards

Demonstrate an ability to find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources

On TWO occasions produce adhesive OR mechanical OR thermal fastened products using different weights and sizes of substrate according to manufacturers and job specifications enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria

Demonstrate use of computerised control monitoring and data entry systems if available and appropriate

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure

Assessment may take place on the job off the job or a combination of these

Assessment off the job must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

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

direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of onthejob performance by the candidate

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector workplace and job role is recommended for example
