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 legislative, regulations, standards, codes of practice and establish safe practices and enterprise policies and procedures for managing personal work priorities

maintaining a working knowledge of current work systems and practices

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:

achieving production goals

achieving work quality goals

responding positively to changing work requirements

contributing effectively to cost reduction initiatives

effectively applying problem solving techniques

modify activities to cater for variations in workplace context and environment

interpret drawings/specifications/materials lists

identify materials

mark out materials

prepare materials for fabrication

employ distortion control techniques

check for squareness and alignment to work order specifications

produce work flow records - written / electronic

apply enterprise OHS policy and procedures.

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 workplace 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

Required knowledge

relevant Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental regulations and enterprise policies and procedures needed to carry out work in a manner which ensures the safety of people, equipment and the environment. The specific regulations will vary according to the area of operation

enterprise technical work documentation covering procedures, specifications, schedules and work plans or equivalent

enterprise quality system documentation covering instructions, procedures, performance indicators and review processes or equivalent

enterprise cost minimisation/waste avoidance policies, procedures and practices

environmental protection requirements relating to the disposal of waste material

established communication channels and protocols

problem identification and resolution techniques.

materials lists codes

marking out and fabrication preparation techniques - straight line, template, geometric.
