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.
Overview of assessment requirements | A person who demonstrates competency in this unit will be able to perform the outcomes described in the Elements to the required performance level detailed in the Performance Criteria. The knowledge and skill requirements described in the Range Statement must also be demonstrated. For example, knowledge of the legislative framework and safe work practices that underpin the performance of the unit must be demonstrated. |
Critical aspects of evidence to be considered | Appropriate materials are selected for the construction and maintenance of the works. Appropriate construction methods and processes are used. Plans and specifications are adhered to. Safety on work site is ensured. Australian standards are met. |
Context of assessment | May be assessed: on the job simulated workplace environment written assignment short-answer test oral questioning observation or any combination of the above |
Relationship to other units(prerequisite or co-requisite units) | To enable holistic assessment this unit may be assessed with other units that form part of the job role. |
Method of assessment | The following assessment methods are suggested: observation of the learner performing a range of workplace tasks over sufficient time to demonstrate handling of a range of contingencies written and/or oral questioning to assess knowledge and understanding completion of workplace documentation third-party reports from experienced practitioners completion of self-paced learning materials including personal reflection and feedback from trainer, coach or supervisor |
Evidence required for demonstration of consistent performance | Evidence will need to be gathered over time across a range of variables. |
Resource implications | In accordance with a range of variable requirements. |

Required Knowledge |
OHS requirements work site traffic management materials technology related to drainage systems appropriate drainage options work scheduling, inspection and testing working in a team state and local environmental 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 in the Performance Criteria is detailed below. | |
Pipeline rehabilitation may include: | folded and formed liners cured in-place resin liners spiral wound liners slip liners pipe grouting machines |
Drainage systems may include: | above and in-ground stormwater wastewater fittings culverts traps drains access holes geofabric strip drains and cloth |
Pipe types may include: | concrete polyvinyl chloride (PVC) steel and fibre concrete corrugated PVC and steel pipes recycled plastics |

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.
