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

Evidence of the ability to:

produce multiple proof sheets, work prints and digital files that demonstrate the application of selected techniques consistent with concept or brief.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

materials, resources and equipment needed to safely process, and enhance analog or digital photo images.

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 observation of the candidate’s skills in using equipment and materials required for the production of proof sheets, work prints and digital files

evaluation of proof sheets, work prints and digital files produced by the candidate

discussion and questioning about the candidate’s intention and the work outcome

review of portfolios of evidence

review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners.

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

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:

CUVDIG301A Produce digital images.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

communication and literacy skills to:

read and interpret written instructions

read and interpret technical data, and material safety data sheets (MSDS)

identify and label source images and copies

numeracy skills to:

interpret technical charts and diagrams relating to photo imaging processing procedures and techniques

calculate and measure materials required for image processing

planning and organising skills to set up equipment in a logical sequence

self-management skills to plan work tasks

technical skills to use a range of software in the context of processing photo images.

Required knowledge

work space requirements for photo imaging

capabilities of digital and/or wet darkroom equipment and their applications

characteristics of different materials under different treatments and the potential of these characteristics to achieve different effects

elements and principles of design and how they may be used and adapted for image processing

traditions that inform photo imaging practice and how they may be used to inform own practice

intellectual property issues and legislation associated with photo imaging work

environmental issues associated with the equipment and materials used in photo imaging work

organisational and legislative OHS procedures in relation to photo imaging work, including manual handling and chemicals.
