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!

use industry standard terminology.

The candidate must demonstrate knowledge of:

enterprise standards for presentation of buildings, structures and surroundings

the effect of outdoor climatic conditions (including rain, hail, extreme heat and wind, and very high ultraviolet radiation), which may prevent or impede maintenance activities, or influence the selection of tools, equipment and safety equipment to minimise the hazards presented

the relationship between specific maintenance activities and the external environment, and reasons for procedures that help to minimise the impact that these activities may have on the environment

workplace hazards and work health and safety symbols, signs and practices in the context of own work

sustainability practices in the context of own work.
