Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
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 | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Locate, interpret and apply information. Apply safety requirements throughout the work sequence, including the use of personal protective clothing and equipment. Identify and itemise steps and stages in procedures. Complete a significant operational procedure, incorporating safety obligations, and covering: a full analysis of the topic area a step-by-step operational procedure supporting documents to the procedure. Complete or review and update a specification for a significant system or sub-system covering: system/sub-system description components materials construction circuitry related information sources legal, regulatory or intellectual property law requirements. Modify products to cater for variations in workplace cultures and environment. Work effectively with others. |
Context of, and specific resources for assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility. Access to systems requiring specification, activities requiring procedural coverage, related, technical information and a work environment. |
Method of assessment | Assessment of this unit of competence is most likely to be project related and require portfolios or other forms of indirect evidence of process. Direct evidence will include certification of compliance of the final outcome/product or authorisation for use by a competent authority. Assessment must confirm the inference that competence is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstances, but is able to be transferred to other projects. Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role. |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Required skills |
collect, organise and understand technical information related to the specifications and procedures, testing processes, diagnostic methods and options and safety procedures. communicate ideas and information to ensure the completeness, clarity and comprehension of the specifications and procedures by the target audience. plan and organise to avoid backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage. work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity. use mathematical ideas and techniques to incorporate measurements, calibration and test requirements into specifications and procedures. establish processes which anticipate and allow for risks, cater for both direct and indirect causes, avoid or minimise reworking and avoid wastage in the preparation and content of procedures. use the workplace technology related to document preparation, including calculators and measuring devices, computing systems and information management systems. |
Required knowledge |
technical writing and presentation techniques. enterprise (or equivalent) technical procedure formats, content rules, preparation and management techniques. |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. | |
Specifications | Specifications are technical criteria for an object, item, system or sub-system describing the components, materials, construction, circuitry and associated legal, regulatory or intellectual property issues. |
Procedures | Procedures contain detailed descriptions of the tasks, activities, sequences, materials, tooling, rules and safety requirements leading or guiding an individual through an authorised work practice. |
Function | The function is undertaken in accordance with established enterprise procedures and practices may include requirements recommended by manufacturer. |
Unit context | OH&S requirements include legislation, safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods codes and safe operating procedures. Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, health regulations, authorised handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements. |
Workplace environment | Specifications and procedures may be used in established workshops or under external site conditions. |
Personal protective equipment | Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices. |
Information and procedures | Workplace procedures relating to the use of tooling and equipment. Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication. Manufacturer/component supplier specifications and application procedures for testing equipment and materials. Manufacturer/component supplier specifications, schematics and operational procedures related to systems. Australian Design Rules. Vehicle industry regulations. Vehicle industry publications related to emerging system technology and technology changes. |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
