Resource implications

Physical resources assessment of this competency requires access to

a real event or program in order to develop and implement a risk management plan

Human resources assessment of this unit of competency will require human resources consistent with those outlined in the Assessment Guidelines That is assessors or persons within the assessment team must

be competent in this unit but preferably be competent in the unit at the level above

be current in their knowledge and understanding of the industry through provision of evidence of professional activity in the relevant area

have attained the mandatory competency requirements for assessors under the Australian Quality Training Framework AQTF as specified in Standard of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations

Consistency in performance

Due to issues such as dealing with different venues with differing layouts this unit of competency must be assessed over a number of eventsprograms in order to ensure consistency of performance over the Range Statements and contexts applicable to managing spectators at an event

Context for assessment

This unit of competency must be assessed in the context of a sport or recreationeventprogram with a range of real clients For valid and reliable assessment the sport or recreation eventprogram should closely replicate the work environment The environment should be safe with the hazards circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a real workplace

This unit of competency must be assessed in the context of a sport or recreationevent/program with a range of real clients. For valid and reliable assessment the sport or recreation event/program should closely replicate the work environment. The environment should be safe with the hazards, circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a real workplace

Assessment of this unit of competence will usually include observation of processes and procedures oral andor written questioning on required knowledge and skills and consideration of required attitudes

Where performance is not directly observed andor is required to be demonstrated over a period of time andor in a number of locations any evidence should be authenticated by colleagues supervisors clients or other appropriate persons
