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

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit:

safe and correct use of painting techniques which result in scenic art which meets production requirements

knowledge of the properties of paints and equipment used in scenic art and the associated safety issues.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The assessment context must provide for:

practical demonstration of skills through the production of a piece of scenic art using nominated painting techniques.

Method of assessment

Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:

direct observation of the candidate using particular techniques

evaluation of scenic art pieces produced by the candidate

oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of applications of different techniques

review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.

Guidance information for assessment

Assessment of this unit requires access to:

painting materials, tools and equipment used for scenic art

a workspace in which scenic art can be produced.

Required Skills and Knowledge
