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

It is essential that competence is fully observed and there is ability to transfer competence to changing circumstances and to respond to unusual situations in critical aspects of:

observing safety procedures and requirements

communicating effectively with others involved in or affected by the work

selecting methods and techniques appropriate to the circumstances

completing preparatory activity in a systematic manner

selecting and using relevant tooling and equipment

identification of application, purpose and operating principles

conducting inspection, servicing and operational testing in accordance with workplace and manufacturer/component supplier specifications

servicing pressure regulators and air lines to workplace and manufacturer/component supplier requirements

completing workplace/equipment documentation

Context of, and specific resources for assessment

Application of competence is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated worksite

Assessment is to occur using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment is to comply with regulatory requirements, including Australian Standards

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

materials relevant to servicing of air compressors and air lines

equipment, hand and power tooling appropriate to servicing of air compressors and air lines

activities covering mandatory task requirements

specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy endorsed assessment guidelines of the automotive industry's RS&R Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance together with application of underpinning knowledge

Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks, with questioning on underpinning knowledge and it must also reinforce integration of key competencies

Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competence is able not only to be satisfied under particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

It is preferable that assessment reflects a process rather than an event and occurs over a period of time to cover varying quality circumstances. Evidence of performance may be provided by customers, team leaders/members or other persons subject to agreed authentication arrangements

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

Guidance information for assessment

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to work orders, plans and safety procedures for servicing air compressors, pressure regulators and air lines

plan and organise activities, including preparation and layout of worksite and obtaining of equipment and material to avoid backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

establish safe and effective work processes which anticipate and/or resolve problems and downtime, to systematically develop solutions to avoid or minimise reworking and wastage

use mathematical ideas and techniques to calculate time, assess tolerances, apply accurate measurements, calculate material requirements and establish quality checks

use workplace technology related to servicing of air compressors and air lines, including use of specialist tooling, measuring equipment, use of communication devices and reporting/documenting of results

Required knowledge

A working knowledge of:

OH&S regulations/requirements, equipment, material and personal safety requirements
