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, 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

Plan and manage safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment.

Plan and manage environmental protection procedures in the business.

Identify materials used in the repair and service process and assess and manage their environmental impact.

Effective recycling processes are in place.

Plan and manage work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes are followed to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

maintain a clean workplace

prevent damage and wastage of goods, equipment and products

dispose of waste in accordance with legislative requirements and best practice

maintain required production output and product quality.

Report significant environmental damage or spills.

Plan and manage operator maintenance on tools and equipment to ensure environmental efficiency.

Plan and manage operator maintenance on spray booth and spray equipment is conducted where applicable, to ensure environmental efficiency.

Manage effective planning and teamwork related to environmental best practice.

Develop/implement or audit an existing business environmental policy which covers at a minimum:

waste, recycling, hazards to stormwater, air quality, noise, energy minimisation and costs.

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace context and the environment.

Context of, and specific resources for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with process equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Access to a marine repair and service workshop with access to marine or components requiring repair, maintenance, testing or installing of components and/or systems, parts washers, recycling bins, bunded/graded wash bays, oil water separator liquid, sludge and solid wastes.

Resources may include, pressure washing and facilities for the use of recycled water.

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment should be conducted over time and may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.

Assessment of this competency is most likely to be project related under real or simulated conditions and require portfolios or other forms of indirect evidence of process. Direct evidence may include, certification of compliance of the final outcome/product or authorisation for use by a component authority.

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

Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role.
