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!

CPCCCO3036A - Plan concrete work and brief team

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

Assess concreting site and scope of work.

  1. Site plans are reviewed and size and complexity of concreting tasks are evaluated.
  2. Site access and egress information and traffic management plan are assessed and additional provisions or changes negotiated as required.
  3. Provisions for site storage and amenities are assessed and additional provisions or changes are negotiated as required.
  4. Concurrent work of other construction teams is assessed and communication channels established or confirmed.
  5. Work specifications are assessed and project stages identified and sequenced to meet project timelines for completion.
  6. Work health and safety (WHS) and environmental requirements are confirmed and applied to planning.
Site plans are reviewed and size and complexity of concreting tasks are evaluated.

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 performing the mandated tasks 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 should demonstrate the ability to:

predict the number of resources and time required to complete three separate concrete projects, each measuring a minimum of 100 square metres, and identify skill requirements for each project

identify and source appropriately skilled workers to complete the concreting work

brief the concreting team on the work to be completed and quality requirements of the finished work.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment of this unit:

must be in the context of the work environment

may be conducted in an off-site context, provided it is realistic and sufficiently rigorous to cover all aspects of workplace performance, including task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills

must meet relevant compliance requirements.

Resource implications for assessment include:

an induction procedure

realistic tasks or simulated tasks covering the mandatory task requirements

relevant specifications and work instructions

support materials appropriate to activity.

Method of assessment

Assessment for this unit must verify the practical application of the required skills and knowledge, using a combination of the following methods:

direct observation of tasks in real or simulated work conditions

questioning to confirm the ability to consistently identify and correctly interpret the essential underpinning knowledge required for practical application

review of relevant authenticated documentation from third parties, such as existing supervisors, team leaders or specialist training staff.

Guidance information for assessment

This unit could be assessed on its own or in combination with other units relevant to the job function.

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.

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.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

learning skills to develop and build understanding of:

types of concrete materials

properties and behaviour of concrete in different environmental conditions

numeracy skills to calculate dimensions of pour and resource requirements

oral communication skills to:

brief team members on work specifications and requirements

liaise with site personnel

reading skills to interpret site plans and work specifications

writing skills to develop or adapt SWMS

Required knowledge

project management principles and strategies relevant to concrete work

regulations and standards relevant to concrete work:

AS 3600 Concrete structures

environmental

WHS

risks, hazards and contingencies relevant to concrete work and effective management strategies

role and responsibilities of construction site personnel

skills, plant, tools, equipment and materials required for concrete work

terminology used on construction sites in relation to concreting and other trades

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.

Work specifications may include:

instructions issued by authorised organisational and external personnel

regulatory and legislative requirements relating to concrete work, including Australian standards

safety data sheets (SDS) for substances to be used

verbal, written and diagrammatic instructions, including manufacturer specifications and instructions where specified

fitting personal protective equipment (PPE)

selecting and checking tools and equipment

site preparation:

excavation

formwork

subgrade

delivery
