Evidence of Performance
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least two separate occasions and include: |
applying ethical standards to all professional interactions and activities contributing to periodic review of relevant industry standards monitoring work outcomes and ensuring compliance with relevant standards, community and relevant industry standards obtaining advice on applying relevant industry standards planning and managing work reviewing and applying ethical standards seeking advice on engineering issues and adopting technologies from relevant person/s in accordance with relevant industry standards. |
Evidence of Knowledge
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of: |
relevant ethical standards, including: application of ethical standards common tenets of ethical standards ethical standards of professional bodies in the engineering industry purpose of ethical standards purpose of standards and how they are applied standards development organisations and compliance systems standards development process and community involvement relevant industry community standards relevant industry standards relevant job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements relevant workplace documentation relevant workplace quality policies and procedures. |
Assessment Conditions
Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment. Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment. Assessment must occur in suitable workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated suitable workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions. Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate. Resources for assessment must include access to: a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations relevant and appropriate materials, tools, facilities and equipment currently used in industry resources that reflect current industry practices in relation to industry and community standards expected of engineers applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, equipment specifications, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals. |
