  • Check and finalise plans prior to implementation
       


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

Evidence of the ability to:

create a work space plan that meets objectives

integrate safety and sustainability requirements into the planning of space.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

a space to be planned.

Method of assessment

Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:

evaluation of plans developed by the candidate

problem solving and case studies to assess ability to adapt planning to meet different industry circumstances

review of portfolios of evidence

review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners.

Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties, such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.


Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

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

communication skills to:

consult with others about work space requirements

provide clear information in plans for work space

literacy skills to interpret a range of planning and design documentation

numeracy skills to work with measurements and other spatial elements

planning and organising skills to organise the planning process

problem-solving skills to resolve issues associated with competing demands for space

Required knowledge

context in which the space is to be used, including user group requirements and commercial considerations

options for planning of space, including advantages and disadvantages of different approaches

sustainability considerations for the creation of the work space

OHS requirements as they apply to use of space within the specific industry context, including specific equipment requirements

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.

Information may include:

architectural plans

artist and installation instructions and requirements

business plans

concept sketches

design concepts

equipment specifications

floor plans.

Work space may include:

exhibition space

performance space

office and administration space

studio

workshop.

Safety and sustainability issues may relate to:

access limitations

equipment to be installed

ergonomics

hygiene

materials to be used

numbers of people using the space

specific equipment requirements

waste disposal.

Key objectives may relate to:

access issues

balancing of competing demands for space

commercial viability

requirements of other users.

Fixtures and fittings may include:

furniture

heating

hanging equipment

lighting

permanent fixtures

storage equipment

technical equipment.

Appropriate format for plans may be:

annotated floor plans

computer drawings

sketches.

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.
