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

This unit of competency could be assessed by undertaking a range of 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:

conduct concrete boom delivery truck system operations over not less than three shifts at two different sites, which will include demonstration of:

positioning of the vehicle

preparation and positioning of the booms and lines

preparation of the pump and hopper

coordination of maintenance of hopper levels

delivery of concrete to required location on work site

variation of boom delivery system positioning to meet changing requirements

withdrawal of the boom delivery system

application of emergency procedures

authorised operator maintenance

locate, interpret and apply relevant information, standards and specifications relating to concrete boom delivery operations

comply with site safety plans and procedures

comply with organisational policies and procedures, relating to concrete boom delivery operations, including quality requirements

communicate and work effectively and safely with others during each stage of the concrete boom delivery operation.

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

tools and equipment appropriate to applying safe work practices

support materials appropriate to activity

workplace instructions relating to safe work practices and addressing hazards and emergencies

safety data sheets.

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:

evaluate own actions and make judgments about performance and necessary improvements

respond to change, such as differences in work site, and environmental and quality requirements

numeracy skills to check levels of lubricants in tools

oral communication skills to:

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

report work site hazards to appropriate personnel, including faults in tools, equipment or materials

use language and concepts appropriate to cultural differences

reading skills to:

interpret documentation, including drawings and specifications

understand written instructions, procedures and signage

interpret manufacturer instructions for safely handling tools and equipment

writing skills to complete pre-operational checklists and equipment fault forms

Required knowledge

boom and line establishment techniques

characteristics, technical capabilities and limitations of concrete boom delivery vehicle systems:

operational, maintenance and basic diagnostic procedures

pumps and pumping system operations

safe operating techniques in all terrain

construction activity sequences relating to bulk concreting operations

general construction terminology

quality requirements relating to concrete boom delivery operations

requirements and methods for safe materials handling

site and equipment safety requirements:

knowing when and how to activate emergency shut-down procedures

overhead safety requirements relating to boom operations

site isolation and traffic control responsibilities and authorities

state or territory regulatory requirements relating to boom delivery system operations

types, location and usage of relevant safety information:

job safety analyses (JSA) and safe work method statements (SWMS)

safety data sheets(SDS)

safety manuals and instructions for plant, tools and equipment

signage

environmental and work site safety plans

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.
