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!

CPPWMT4022A - Monitor waste disposal sites

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Organise for monitoring.

Monitoring requirements to be undertaken on waste site are identified from organisational requirements and legislation and codes.
Special testing requirements are determined and incorporated into job requirements.
Required tools, equipment and materials are obtained and checked to ensure safe and efficient operation.
Monitoring requirements and work tasks are communicated to relevant personnel.
Equipment and materials are allocated to appropriate personnel.
Supervisory processes and checks and measures are implemented to ensure work is completed within time available.
Potential hazards and risks are identified and managed according to organisational requirements, and occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations and other legislation and codes.
Emergency and personal protective equipment (PPE) is selected and fitted according to job requirements, manufacturer specifications, organisational requirements and legislation and codes.

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 observing practical demonstration in the workplace, or in a simulated environment, of the monitoring of a waste disposal site.
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 the required skills and knowledge specified in this unit. In particular the person should demonstrate the ability to: identify monitoring requirements, including special tests recognise potential hazards and risks to monitoring activities monitor landfill cells, drainage systems and landfill environment observe OHS requirements.
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge may be conducted in an off-site context. It is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian standards’ requirements. Resource implications for assessment include: work plans and approved specifications forms and procedures manuals.
Method of assessment	Monitoring a disposal site must comply with industry expectations in the particular client environment. If the environment is narrowly defined or is not representative of industry needs, it may be necessary to refer to portfolio case studies to assess competency in the monitoring of a disposal site. Assessment methods must: satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the Property Services Training Package include direct observation of tasks in real or simulated work conditions, with questioning to confirm the ability to consistently identify and correctly interpret the essential underpinning knowledge required for practical application reinforce the integration of employability skills with workplace tasks and job roles confirm that competency is verified and able to be transferred to other circumstances and environments.
Guidance information for assessment	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. This unit could be assessed on its own or in combination with other units relevant to the job function, for example: CPPCMN3001B Participate in environmentally sustainable work practices CPPCMN4007A Manage workplace safety arrangements CPPWMT3023A Maintain waste disposal sites.
