  • Work area is cleaned and returned to approved condition
  • Workplace documentation is completed
       


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

Identify frames to be finished, the finish to be applied and the means by which this is to be achieved

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment, safety and environmental protection equipment

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

As a minimum, demonstrate the following to the given timber, timber/compound, plain, ornamental frames:

hand staining

hand finishing

washed finishing

mechanical finishing

faux finishing

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Resource implications

Finishing equipment, work area, finishes and frames to be finished.

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 may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency which form a part of the job role.

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 work orders, basic plans, and safety procedures

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, coordination of work with work supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities, including the preparation and layout of the work area and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any back tracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate quantities and estimate material requirements

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate finishing problems, avoid re-working and damage

use the limited workplace technology related to the finishing of picture frames, including tools, equipment and finishes

Required knowledge

picture frame finishes

methods, characteristics and problems of application

workflow in relation to spraying operations

identification of equipment, processes and procedures

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

Work requires individuals to demonstrate some discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the application of finishes to frames

OHS requirements may include legislation, standards, material safety management systems and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, environment legislation, manual handling procedures and relevant regulations and organisation insurance requirements

Work may be performed in workplaces which are involved in the manufacture or repair of picture frames

Apply frame finishes

Addresses the application of finishes to picture frames by mechanical means or by hand

Finishes may be paint, stain, powder, foil, lacquer, synthetic or faux

Picture frames may be of timber, metal/alloy or synthetic material

Tools and equipment are to include:

air spray gun

airless spray gun

air compressor and hoses

paint and brushes

finish containers and scrapers

Tools and equipment may include:

a custom spray booth and fume extraction/ventilation system

Materials may include but is not limited to:

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.
