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!

AHCSHG402A - Conduct equipment experting for machine shearing

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

Trim and finish combs

  1. Signs of non-optimal equipment performance are identified and acted upon.
  2. The trim and finish meet the requirements of the current shearing task.
  3. Control of comb and tools is maintained throughout the experting process in accordance with Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) requirements.
  4. Comb is adapted in a form that meets individual shearing style.
Signs of non-optimal equipment performance are identified and acted upon.

Scallop comb

  1. The principles and method of scalloping are recognised and applied.
  2. The interrelationship between correctly scalloped combs and shearing performance is determined in terms of density of wool, time of year, and breed.
  3. Combs are scalloped to meet the shearing style of individual shearers.
The principles and method of scalloping are recognised and applied.

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:

trim and finish combs

scallop combs.

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

trim and finish combs

scallop combs

identify hazards and implement safe work practices

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

use oral communication skills/language competence to fulfil the job role as specified by the organisation including questioning, active listening, asking for clarification, negotiating solutions and responding to a range of views

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

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

Required knowledge

types of combs and cutters

trimming and finishing techniques

tools and equipment used in experting

OHS legislation and enterprise procedures related to experting

scalloping techniques

assessing relationship of comb preparation to shearing performance.

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole.

Equipment may include:

all shearing and experting equipment available for use in the industry.
