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, 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	Evidence of the following is essential: safe execution of hazardous action sequences using fights and falls that demonstrate: compliance with all licensing, regulatory and industry codes of practice and safety regulations safe work practices understanding of screen production processes in relation to performing hazardous action sequences ability to follow correct procedures in relation to setting up, performing and evaluating hazardous action sequences involving fights and falls ability to make judgements based on the degree of risk associated with hazardous action sequences effective verbal and written communication skills in the context of executing hazardous action sequences using fights and falls.
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment must ensure that a sufficient range of hazardous action sequences are covered that address all aspects of stunt performance (falls, fights and combat) as determined by MEAA requirements. Assessment should occur wherever possible in an integrated manner with similar hazardous action sequence units that support learners to meet relevant licensing and regulatory requirements. Assessment must also ensure: access to a real or simulated workplace environment that reproduces all the elements of a production requiring hazardous action sequences involving fights and falls access to regulatory information as listed in the range statement access to appropriate learning and assessment support when required use of culturally appropriate processes and techniques appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of learners and the work being performed.
Method of assessment	A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third-party workplace reports of on-the-job performance direct observation and questioning of the candidate on location as he/she prepares for and performs hazardous action sequences involving fights and falls written or oral questioning to test knowledge as listed in the required skills and knowledge section of this unit.
Guidance information for assessment	Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example: BSBPMG407B Apply risk management techniques CUFHAZ401A Perform hazardous action sequences using vehicles CUFHAZ403A Perform hazardous action sequences involving natural elements CUFHAZ404A Perform hazardous action sequences involving animals.
