Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Identify document type and purpose
  • Key information is identified, such as title, version, scale, legend and keys
  • Any relevant explanatory or additional information needed to interpret the document is located
       
Element: Clarification is sought to confirm the intention of information
       
Element: Read and interpret the document
  • Information such as symbols, abbreviations, acronyms and technical terms are identified and interpreted in terms of:
       
Element: the work to be completed
       
Element: any Australian Standards requirements
       
Element: the equipment and tools to be used
       
Element: the items to be produced or repaired
  • Document information is compared to component or supplier advice for use of the materials and, where relevant, Australian Standards
  • Design and style features shown in drawings are identified by industry recognised terms
       
Element: Plan own work sequence
  • Work sequence, required tools and equipment and tasks to be performed are identified from the documents
  • Work sequence is planned, identifying stages where checks against specifications must be made
  • Specifications noted in the work plan are checked for accuracy against the drawings and specifications, and any errors are rectified
       
Element: Maintain document files
  • Plans and documents are handled carefully and maintained intact
  • Any explanatory documentation, additional information and/or modification information is kept with the work plan and original documentation according to workplace procedures
  • All documentation is replaced in workplace filing or storage system for retrieval by others as required
       


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.

Critical Aspects of Evidence

Recognise and explain the meanings of symbols, technical terms and conventions of specifications and plans

Check accuracy of copied specifications

Maintain condition of documentation

Locate, read and interpret a minimum of 10 selected/specified work documents which must include:

Australian Standards relevant to the sector

manufacturer technical instructions and specifications

real or simulated local work documents including:

work plans

material safety data sheets

relevant building codes

job procedures

safe work instructions or equivalent

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace context and environment

Resource Implications

Access to a range of drawings, standards, plans, specifications and cutting lists relevant to the work.

Method of Assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment should be conducted over time and generally be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.

Context of Assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.


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

collect, organise and understand information related to the range of work documents relevant to the sector

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications

plan and organise activities to avoid any back tracking, work flow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise information management

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly interpret the content of work documents

identify alternative methods of accessing and sources of work information

use workplace technology related to work documentation, its access and storage

Required knowledge

different types of work documents used in the furnishing industry, and their function

conventions and symbols of plans, drawings and specifications

workplace procedures for maintenance of documentation

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.

Unit context

OHS requirements include legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods codes and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements

Work requires individuals to demonstrate some discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the reading of work documents and the preparation of work plans

Competency may be determined in workplaces involved in the manufacture and or installation of musical instruments, domestic furniture, commercial furniture, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, furniture components, picture frames, soft furnishings, floor covering and finishing, and glass and glazing

Work documents to be considered are to include but may not be limited to:

standards

drawings

cutting lists

job specifications and architect/builder plans or equivalent and manufacturer specifications and/or operating instructions

Work documents are to include hard copy and may include computerised versions

Information and procedures

Workplace plans, drawings and specifications applicable to all sectors of the industry

Australian Standards applicable to the industry sectors

Workplace procedures relating to the preparation of own work plans and the maintenance of work documentation

Supplier and manufacturer technical data and information

Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication

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.
