Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Determine project schedule
  • Develop work breakdown structure with sufficient detail to enable effective planning and control
  • Estimate duration and effort, sequence and dependencies of tasks, to achieve project deliverables
  • Use project scheduling tools and techniques to identify schedule impact on project time management, resource requirements, costs and risks
  • Contribute to achieving an agreed schedule baseline and communication of the schedule to stakeholders
       
Element: Implement project schedule
  • Implement mechanisms to measure, record and report progress of activities according to agreed schedule
  • Conduct ongoing analysis to identify baseline variance
  • Analyse and forecast impact of changes to the schedule
  • Review progress throughout project life cycle and implement agreed schedule changes
  • Develop responses to potential or actual schedule changes and implement them to maintain project objectives
       
Element: Assess time management outcomes
  • Review schedule performance records to determine effectiveness of time management activities
  • Identify and document time management issues and recommend improvements
       


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.

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.

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.
