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

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency

Evidence of the following is essential

a minimum of three training sessions involving demonstrating and instructing of particular work skills for different groups Each session must address different learning objectives a range of techniques and effective communication skills appropriate to the audience

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure

access to an actual workplace whenever possible Where no workplace is available a simulated workplace must be provided

assessment must be conducted at different points in time and in a learning and assessment pathway these must be separated by further learning and practice

Resources required include

the necessary materials for instructiondemonstration

access to required technology for instruction demonstration

developed learning activities

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

analysis of responses to case studies and scenarios

analysis of responses for identifying processes for checking learning achievement

learner evaluations

analysis of responses for selecting learning techniques

peer evaluations

analysis of responses to the provision of practice opportunities for learners

questioning oral or written

analysis of responses to reasons for selecting learning resources and their organisation

review of testimony from team members colleagues supervisors or managers
