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 in combination with other units relevant to the job function, for example unit CPPSIS6008A Conduct design and set out survey.
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: matching objectives with resources to ensure project proceeds in an organised and timely manner ensuring that achievement of required accuracy has been attempted by: accessing and interpreting design information to identify the components to be measured and monitored applying solutions to a range of problems documenting and reporting managing contingencies organising and prioritising activity performing measurements planning resources reducing and manipulating spatial data ensuring that non-conformity aspects are recorded and reported taking responsibility for team outputs in work and learning.
Specific resources for assessment	Resource implications for assessment include access to: assessment instruments, including personal planner and assessment record book assignment instructions, work plans and schedules, policy documents and duty statements registered training provider of assessment services relevant guidelines, regulations and codes of practice suitable venue and equipment. Access must be provided to appropriate learning and assessment support when required. Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities.
Context of assessment	Holistic: based on the performance criteria, evidence guide, range statement, and required skills and knowledge.
Method of assessment	Demonstrated over a period of time and observed by the assessor (or assessment team working together to conduct the assessment). Demonstrated competency in a range of situations, that may include customer/workplace interruptions and involvement in related activities normally experienced in the workplace. Obtained by observing activities in the field and reviewing induction information. If this is not practicable, observation in realistic simulated environments may be substituted.
Guidance information for assessment	Assessment requires that the clients' objectives and industry expectations are met. If the clients' objectives are narrowly defined or not representative of industry needs, it may be necessary to refer to portfolio case studies of a variety of spatial information services requirements to assess competency. Oral questioning or written assessment and hypothetical situations (scenarios) may be used to assess underpinning knowledge (in assessment situations where the candidate is offered a preference between oral questioning or written assessment, questions are to be identical). Supplementary evidence may be obtained from relevant authenticated correspondence from existing supervisors, team leaders or specialist training staff. All practical demonstration must adhere to the safety and environmental regulations relevant to each State or Territory. Where assessment is for the purpose of recognition (recognition of current competencies [RCC] or recognition of prior learning [RPL]), the evidence provided will need to be authenticated and show that it represents competency demonstrated over a period of time.
	In all cases where practical assessment is used it will be combined with targeted questioning to assess the underpinning knowledge. Assessment processes will be appropriate to the language and literacy levels of the candidate and any cultural issues that may affect responses to the questions, and will reflect the requirements of the competency and the work being performed.

Required Skills and Knowledge


This section describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.
Required skills: ability to relate to people from a range of social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds and with a range of physical and mental abilities analytical skills ability to translate requirements into design communication skills to: consult effectively with clients and colleagues impart knowledge and ideas through oral, written and visual means computer skills (high technical user level) to develop business documentation information management instrument use (high level) literacy skills to: assess, develop and use workplace information locate and interpret legislation and other written documentation prepare and manage documentation and information flow read and write key performance reports, including technical reports research and evaluate (high level) in order to source spatial information services educational information negotiation skills numeracy skills to: analyse errors conduct image analysis estimate costs interpret and analyse statistics perform mental calculations record with accuracy and precision undertake high level computations organisational skills to: plan and coordinate technical and human resource inputs to research activities plan and prioritise activities to meet contractual requirements planning project management skills spatial skills to: exercise precision and accuracy in relation to complex engineering set out survey techniques perform spatial data archival and retrieval and train others in this task perform spatial data management and manipulation and train others in this task perform file management and train others in this task solve problems relating to height, depth, breadth, dimension, direction and position in actual operational activity and virtual representation understand implications of height, depth, breadth, dimension and position to actual operational activity and virtual representation working in a team.
Required knowledge and understanding: abilities of work teams accuracy and precision requirements calibration of specialised surveying equipment data formats data management data reduction and manipulation techniques guidelines of projects high-level, relevant engineering-related tasks and associated computations legislative, statutory and industry requirements and standards limitations of the guidelines relating to equipment, measuring and analysis organisational policies and guidelines, such as OHS guidelines planning and control processes project review procedures safe work practices surveying reference systems surveying data capture and data set out methodologies use of surveying equipment for data capture and data set out.
