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!

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Identify project, location and surrounds.

  1. Location and nature of the restoration work to be undertaken are identified and recorded following consultations with the architect and site inspections.
  2. Site access and egress for work location are noted and recorded.
  3. Area to be disturbed is determined and surrounding areas are noted for possible work application effects and cover protection requirements.
  4. Nature of the work is assessed and noted for possible use of heavy or bulky equipment.
  5. Effect on public access is assessed and recorded to ensure protection of the public and the environment is undertaken.

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

This unit of competency could be assessed by completion of relevant processes and activities essential prior to the commencement of a heritage restoration project.

This unit of competency can be assessed in the workplace or a close simulation of the workplace environment, provided that simulated or project-based assessment techniques fully replicate construction workplace conditions, materials, activities, responsibilities and procedures.

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

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to provide evidence of the ability to:

apply conservation considerations and consultative processes associated with preservation of historic structures

demonstrate understanding of preservation of fabric

comply with OHS regulations applicable to workplace operations

apply organisational quality procedures and processes within the context of initiating the heritage restoration process

identify job-specific requirements and inherent risks associated with heritage restoration

select and use appropriate processes to analyse and identify particular needs for projects

communicate and agree on expectations and timeframes for the work to be undertaken

apply appropriate techniques to cross-reference interlocking or overlapping operations

demonstrate techniques to check and ensure relevant information and stages of preparation are fully covered

interactive communication with others to ensure all factual information is gathered and shared with relevant stakeholders.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This competency is to be assessed using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge will usually be conducted in an off-site context.

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian standards' requirements.

Resource implications for assessment include:

restoration project appropriate to competency

appropriate documentation and data related to project.

Reasonable adjustments for people with disabilities must be made to assessment processes where required. This could include access to modified equipment and other physical resources, and the provision of appropriate assessment support.

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must:

satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package

include direct observation of tasks in real or simulated work conditions, with questioning to confirm the ability to consistently identify and correctly interpret the essential underpinning knowledge required for practical application

reinforce the integration of employability skills with workplace tasks and job roles

confirm that competency is verified and able to be transferred to other circumstances and environments.

Validity and sufficiency of evidence requires that:

competency will need to be demonstrated over a period of time reflecting the scope of the role and the practical requirements of the workplace

where the assessment is part of a structured learning experience the evidence collected must relate to a number of performances assessed at different points in time and separated by further learning and practice, with a decision on competency only taken at the point when the assessor has complete confidence in the person's demonstrated ability and applied knowledge

all assessment that is part of a structured learning experience must include a combination of direct, indirect and supplementary evidence.

Assessment processes and techniques should as far as is practical take into account the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate in relation to the competency being assessed.

Supplementary evidence of competency may be obtained from relevant authenticated documentation from third parties, such as existing supervisors, team leaders or specialist training staff.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

Required skills for this unit are:

analytical skills to analyse operations and develop procedures

communication skills to:

communicate with team

consult with technical specialists, client and other stakeholders

enable clear and direct communication, using questioning to identify and confirm requirements, share information, listen and understand

facilitate discussions

read and interpret:

documentation from a variety of sources

plans, specifications and drawings

use and interpret non-verbal communication

use language and concepts appropriate to cultural differences

written skills to record relevant information

organisational skills, including the ability to plan for and set out work

time management skills and prioritisation skills to enable work to be completed within agreed timeframes.

Required knowledge

Required knowledge for this unit is:

Australian standards relevant to the work

conservation processes, including good conservation practice arising from principles of Burra Charter

dispute resolution processes

methods and processes relating to historic building construction, including the range and use of building materials, structure of buildings and drafting techniques

relevant architectural knowledge, including orders of architecture and the characteristics and features of period architecture

trade-specific techniques used in restoration work

workplace and equipment safety requirements, including relevant statutory regulations, codes and standards.

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Access includes:

access to structures and storage facilities or space, which may be limited.

Protection requirements include:

environmental protection

protection for the public.

Heavy or bulky equipment includes:

compressors

cranes

excavators

mobile scaffold or working platforms.

Contractual requirements include:

materials to be used

performance standards

timeframes.
