Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to monitor the implementation of a system pilot, and to evaluate its performance through testing and review.It applies to individuals who are senior programmers and systems analysts who implement systems.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the programming and software development industry, and include access to the:

pilot plan

acceptance criteria

system to be piloted.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

2.3 Identify and areas of success, and those needing improvement

2.4 Prioritise, implement and assess, the impact of required improvements

2.5 Document the review process and submit to the appropriate person

Evidence of the ability to:

review documentation to identify pilot objectives, client requirements and relevant procedures

observe and support testing and document findings

evaluate the pilot's success using acceptance criteria and stakeholder feedback

document the evaluation process, including successes, improvements and impact of changes.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

describe the current industry-accepted system of piloting methodologies including their general features and capabilities, with particular emphasis on acceptance criteria

describe current industry system development and design methodologies

explain three or more current industry information-gathering methodologies

outline the role of stakeholders and the degree of stakeholder involvement

describe the system's current functionality, with a specific emphasis on:

system integration

system response and recovery times

user interfaces

the validation of inputs and outputs.

2.5 Document the review process and submit to the appropriate person

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.
