Evidence Required

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package

Overview of assessment

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply without error legislative and regulatory requirements relating to the certification of aeronautical product maintenance

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

It is essential that airworthiness compliance requirements are interpreted and fully applied without error

Evidence is required of underlying knowledge and skills associated with the application of airworthiness legislation and compliance requirements along with evidence of appropriate levels of literacy and oral expression associated with presenting clear and concise information

A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the unit of competency are being achieved under supervision without intervention on a range of tasks fully representative of Groups to in the Range Statement The body of evidence for this unit may be collected and logged during simulated activities at the CASR Part MTO andor performance during supervised workplace activities

Knowledge must also be demonstrated of the concept of airworthiness that underpins the legislative framework and compliance requirements

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency should be assessed in the work environment under supervision but without intervention for the purpose of Journal entries andor by use of simulated activities in a CASR Part MTO covering the interpretation and application of airworthiness control and certification requirements

Method of assessment

This unit must be linked in its assessment and application to those that apply to the performance of maintenance on the applicable items of aeronautical product
