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!

Use control techniques for set-out.

  1. Horizontal control points are located throughout the work area and coordinates are set out according to plans and specifications.
  2. Design points are set out from base lines by offsetting, and positions are checked to ensure correct tolerances according to specifications.
  3. Primary and secondary controls are used and accuracy is checked according to plans and specifications.
  4. Set-out pegs or markers are used to indicate base lines and offsets relative to the work area.
  5. Vertical control points are established to ensure design points are positioned at correct levels according to plans and specifications.
  6. Offsets and profiles are put in place to define the main lines of stormwater works and provide vertical controls.
  7. Measured surveying data is reduced and calculations, including fall of land and volume, are conducted according to industry-accepted standards and organisational requirements.
Horizontal control points are located throughout the work area and coordinates are set out according to plans and specifications.
