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

Competency is to be demonstrated by the safe and effective excavation and installation of support for different types of excavations listed in the range of variables statement.

(1) Critical Aspects of Evidence

It is essential that competence is observed in the following aspects:

compliance with Occupational Health and Safety regulations and State/Territory legislation applicable to work place operations

compliance with organisational policies and procedures including Quality Assurance requirements.

correct procedures during construction

safe and effective operational use of tools, plant and equipment and communications to enable safe excavation and support installation

(2) Pre-requisite Relationship of Units

This unit of competency is dependent upon acquiring the relevant pre-requisite competencies in basic industry and basic stream skills.

(3) Underpinning Knowledge and Skills

Knowledge

A knowledge of:

workplace and equipment safety requirements including relevant legislation regulations and codes

measurements

hand tools and equipment

materials and handling methods

Quality Assurance

workplace communication

Skills

The ability to:

work safely to instructions

use hand tools

handle material

select material

measure

apply Quality Assurance

communicate effectively

(4) Resource Implications

The following resources should be made available:

general construction materials relative to civil construction works

hand and power tools, plant and equipment appropriate to the civil construction activity

plant and equipment appropriate to the relative construction activity

suitable work area appropriate to the construction activity

suitable plan/specifications relative to the work orientation

(5) Method of Assessment

Competency should be assessed through direct observation and questions related to underpinning knowledge.

Competency in this unit may be determined concurrently, based upon project work.

Competency shall be assessed while work is undertaken under general guidance, checking at various stages of the process and at the completion of the activity against the performance criteria and specifications.

(6) Context of Assessment

Competency shall be assessed in the normal or simulated workplace environment and in accordance with safe work procedures.

Assessment shall include those aspects that are consistent with the work environment of this unit.

Competency shall be assessed while work is undertaken autonomously, within a team environment.

Assessment may be intermittent checking at various stages of the job application with the performance criteria, or may be at the completion of the process.

Guidelines will be in line with statutory requirements, enterprise specific policies and procedures and codes of practice.
