Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Prepare to make sketches and drawings.
  • Types of drawings requiredand key features to be recorded are identified through consultation and reference to relevant job documentation and in conformity with the scope and standard practice of the relevant industry sector.
  • Work health and safety (WHS) requirementson site are identified and followed.
  • Tools and equipmentrequired for inspection and measurement and for producing the drawings are gathered and checked for safety and serviceability.
       


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

This unit of competency could be assessed in a workplace or closely simulated workplace environment, provided that simulated or project-based assessment techniques fully replicate construction workplace conditions, materials, activities responsibilities and procedures.

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

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to provide evidence of:

producing clear and effective drawings and sketches with appropriate notations and labelling by creating a set of sketches and drawings for a small work project in the relevant field of expertise, including:

application of sustainability principles and concepts

measurements and details of components, sub-assemblies, products and models

correct calculations of required dimensions

other drafting details based on measurements and other relevant information

notations and labelling.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This competency is to be assessed using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge will usually be conducted in an off-site context.

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian standards' requirements.

Resource implications for assessment include:

an induction procedure and requirement

realistic tasks or simulated tasks covering the minimum task requirements

relevant specifications and work instructions

tools and equipment appropriate to applying safe work practices

support materials appropriate to activity

workplace instructions relating to safe work practices and addressing hazards and emergencies

material safety data sheets

research resources, including industry-related systems information.

Reasonable adjustments for people with disabilities must be made to assessment processes where required. This could include access to modified equipment and other physical resources, and the provision of appropriate assessment support.

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must:

satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package

include direct observation of tasks in real or simulated work conditions, with questioning to confirm the ability to consistently identify and correctly interpret the essential underpinning knowledge required for practical application

reinforce the integration of employability skills with workplace tasks and job roles

confirm that competency is verified and able to be transferred to other circumstances and environments.

Validity and sufficiency of evidence requires that:

competency will need to be demonstrated over a period of time reflecting the scope of the role and the practical requirements of the workplace

where the assessment is part of a structured learning experience the evidence collected must relate to a number of performances assessed at different points in time and separated by further learning and practice, with a decision on competency only taken at the point when the assessor has complete confidence in the person's demonstrated ability and applied knowledge

all assessment that is part of a structured learning experience must include a combination of direct, indirect and supplementary evidence.

Assessment processes and techniques should as far as is practical take into account the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate in relation to the competency being assessed.

Supplementary evidence of competency may be obtained from relevant authenticated documentation from third parties, such as existing supervisors, team leaders or specialist training staff.

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

confirm job specifications and requirements orally and in writing

enable clear and direct communication, using questioning to identify and confirm requirements, share information, listen and understand

use language and concepts appropriate to cultural differences

use and interpret non-verbal communication, such as hand signals

creative design, drawing and drafting skills, including use of drafting equipment

literacy skills to:

read and interpret a range of documents, such as design briefs, sketches, drawings and plans

read, interpret and apply relevant standards and codes

numeracy skills to apply measurements and make calculations

planning and organising skills to:

plan and set out work

ensure coordinated development of sketches and drawings

teamwork skills to work with others to action tasks and relate to people from a range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds and with varying physical and mental abilities

technology skills to access and understand site-specific instructions

Required knowledge

drawing conventions and features, including direction, scale, key, contours, symbols and abbreviations

drawing techniques

requirements of relevant codes, standards and statutory requirements

safe work methods

other services and penetrations to be considered

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.
