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 performing 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:

supervise team members conducting a minimum of three concreting projects in a residential, commercial or industrial setting, ensuring timely completion of each project to required quality standards and specifications

locate, interpret and apply relevant information, standards and specifications to supervised concreting work

communicate to team members and comply with:

site safety plan and WHS requirements, regulations and codes of practice applicable to workplace operations

organisational policies and procedures relating to supervising concreting work while maintaining quality requirements outlined in job specifications

monitor and direct team members to:

safely and effectively operate and use plant, tools and equipment

safely handle concreting materials and components.

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

specifications and work instructions relating to supervising concrete work

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 (SDS).

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 and supply volumes required for different types of concreting work

effects of weather conditions on progress of concrete work

numeracy skills to assess and calculate resources required for different stages of concrete work in various weather conditions

oral communication skills to lead and motivate team members

reading skills to interpret plans, specifications and concrete manufacturer information

writing skills to complete equipment fault forms

Required knowledge

concreting procedures for different types of projects and safe work methods for different conditions

principles of task management

regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to concreting work

team leadership strategies

tools, equipment and materials required for concreting work and safe operating and maintenance procedures

types, properties and limitations of different types of concrete

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 health and safety requirements must include:

assistance of others or the use of manual or mechanical lifting devices with handling activities where size, weight or other issues, such as disability, are a factor

emergency procedures, including extinguishing fires, organisational first aid requirements and evacuation

hazard control

hazardous materials and substances

personal protective equipment (PPE) prescribed under legislation, regulations and workplace policies and practices

safe operating procedures, including the conduct of operational risk assessment and treatments associated with:

earth leakage boxes

lighting

power cables, including overhead service trays, cables and conduits

signage and restricted access barriers

surrounding structures

traffic control

trip hazards

work site visitors and the public

working at heights

working in confined spaces

working in proximity to others

working outdoors in warm climates

use of firefighting equipment

use of tools and equipment

workplace environmental requirements and safety.

Environmental requirements may include:

clean-up management

dust suppression

noise management

stormwater management

vibration management

waste management.

Materials, tools and equipment must include combinations of the following relevant to the particular type of project:

agitators

brooms

floats

grinders

hoses

rollers

screeds

shovels

PPE

trowels, including power trowels

water blasters
