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!

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, the range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.

Overview of assessment

This unit of competency could be assessed on its own or as part of an integrated assessment activity involving other competencies relevant to the job function.

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:

recognising the needs and desires of people with disabilities to engage fully in all aspects of society, and their right to do so

interpreting accurately the impacts of the full range of disabilities and the limitations that each disability places on the individual's ability to access the environment

interpreting accurately how the full range of environmental barriers impact on any of the impairments that people with disabilities might have

assessing a building approval application for access and documenting the findings

evaluating the plans, specifications and detail drawings for compliance with access legislation

negotiating with other members of the building development team for the resolution of access non-compliance issues

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Resource implications for assessment include:

a registered provider of assessment services

competency standards

assessment materials and tools

cost and time considerations.

Validity and sufficiency of evidence requires:

competency will need to be demonstrated over a period of time reflecting the scope of the role

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 of competence only taken at the point when the assessor has complete confidence in the person's competence

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

where assessment is for the purpose of recognition (RCC/RPL), the evidence provided will need to be current and show that it represents competency demonstrated over a period of time

assessment can be through simulated project-based activity and must include evidence relating to each of the elements in this unit.
