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!

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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.

Overview of assessment

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

Evidence of the following is essential:

Compliance with relevant legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and organisation policies and procedures for maintaining of plant, tooling, equipment, product, or systems

Maintaining a working knowledge of current organisation inventory procedures

Working and communicating effectively and positively with others involved in the work

Applying, within authority, the requirements of the job or work role in relation to:

maintaining plant, tooling, equipment and/or systems effectively

preparing reports of results

achieving work quality goals

completing work area housekeeping requirements including the documentation of project activity and process outcomes.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

assessment of the competency should take place in a safe working environment in a passenger motor vehicle manufacturing plant or simulated environment using tools/equipment/machinery required for the production process without undue disruption to the production process

assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of organisation relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge

assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application

assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process

assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.

Required Skills and Knowledge

This section describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.

Required skills

speak clearly and directly in order to communicate the condition of tools and equipment

apply teamwork to a range of situations, including the servicing of systems

access, interpret and apply information on relevant organisation policies, procedures and instructions, particularly to ensure tools and equipment are maintained to required levels of functionality

manage time when planning, preparing and organising work priorities

take responsibility for organising own work priorities.

Required knowledge

relevant Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice and organisation policies and procedures needed to carry out work in a manner which ensures the safety of people, equipment and the environment.

interpreting performance results

procedural manuals

quality assurance guidelines

quality and continuous improvement processes and standards

recording and reporting guidelines.

Maintenance of plant, tooling, equipment or systems may include:

the preventative and remedial maintenance of plant or components thereof, tooling, equipment or systems, which are required in the design, development and production of motor vehicles.

Instructions may include:

organisation procedures relating to the use and operation of tools and equipment

departmental requirements

organisation instructions, including job sheets, plans, specifications, drawings and designs

organisation procedures relating to reporting and communications

manufacturers' instructions for the use of equipment and materials.

Preventative maintenance may include:

the maintenance undertaken daily, weekly, monthly, annual or on other schedules, designed to provide regular systematic inspection and servicing thereby facilitating reliable operation.
