Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

AHCSAW302A - Implement erosion and sediment control measures

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare for implementation and construction

  1. Erosion and sediment control plan and schedule of works match site conditions.
  2. Survey pegs and site indicators are identified on site.
  3. Equipment and tools are matched to program works and terrain on site.
  4. Work readiness of selected equipment and tools are verified in line with contractor policy.
  5. Materials are selected to complete proposed works in line with construction schedule.

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

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.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to workplace operations and satisfy holistically all of the requirements of the performance criteria and required skills and knowledge and include achievement of the following:

select and prepare equipment

confirm the details of work

identify survey pegs and site indicators

construct earthworks in line with the plan

install erosion and sediment control products and materials

carry out repairs and maintenance procedures.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency requires the application of work practices under work conditions. Selection and use of resources for some worksites may differ due to the regional or enterprise circumstances.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

identify hazards and implement safe work procedures

prepare for implementation and construction

carry out implementation and construction

carry out repairs and maintenance procedures

use literacy skills to read, interpret and follow organisational policies and procedures, follow sequenced written instructions, record accurately and legible information collected and select and apply procedures for a range of tasks

use oral communication skills/language competence to fulfil the job role as specified by the organisation, including questioning techniques, active listening, clarifying information and consulting with supervisors as required

use numeracy skills to estimate, calculate and record routine workplace measures

use interpersonal skills to work with and relate to people from a range of cultural, social and religious backgrounds and with a range of physical and mental abilities.

Required knowledge

materials cartage pollution control

sequence of working and timing/duration

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) issues relating to the equipment and the site

equipment used

construct, install and maintain includes materials, quantity and where to source them on site

construction/installation techniques for all measures on the plan

limitations of structures including timing of maintenance, structure life cycle, specifications and standards

environmental impacts and procedures for erosion and sediment control.
