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.

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

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

application of planned strategies to develop appropriate skills in photoimaging practice

demonstration of work practice which develops own style through exploring and experimenting with new ideas in making and/or interpreting work.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The assessment context must provide for:

the opportunity to use a range of strategies and resources to develop own practice

assessment conducted over a period of time to reflect the ongoing nature of skills in this unit.

Method of assessment

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

oral questioning and/or discussion about the candidate's intentions and work outcome

written reports or presentations

review of folios, which may include photographic images (including digital construction) in artist's books, boxed sets, print folios, exhibitions, through electronic media presentation devices, and installations

third party workplace reports of performance by the candidate.

Assessment methods should reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities and people who have literacy or numeracy difficulties such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling).

Assessment of this unit requires access to equipment for photoimaging practice and to information about photoimaging.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills:

literacy skills sufficient to read and interpret a broad range of information pertaining to the photoimaging industry

numeracy skills sufficient to interpret technical charts/diagrams for the photoimaging industry.

Required knowledge:
