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:

apply knowledge of materials, processes and techniques for a particular art form

manage specialised resources for the particular art form

originate and realise a coherent body of creative work in a particular art form

create work of a professional standard for sale, promotion or use in the public domain

evaluate and discuss work in a professional context.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

appropriate resources for the production of work, including work space, tools, equipment and materials.

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:

evaluation of a body of work produced by the candidate

evaluation of processes used by the candidate to independently conceive, plan and realise the work

direct observation of work in progress

evaluation of a candidate’s visual diary or other forms of documentation showing the development of the work, including research and ideas development

group peer review of the work

questioning and discussion about candidate’s intentions 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:

CUVPRP601A Originate a body of independent creative work

CUVPRP605A Evolve ideas for professional creative work.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

communication skills to engage with others at a professional level

critical thinking and analytical skills to independently analyse and evaluate ideas to inform original work

initiative and enterprise skills to independently generate new ideas and work opportunities

learning skills to evaluate own skills against professional practice strategy

literacy skills to:

interpret information dealing with complex or abstract ideas

document work in ways that communicate processes and ideas

numeracy skills to calculate resource costs

problem-solving skills to:

challenge, adapt and refine work projects

creatively resolve conceptual and technical issues that arise within the work

self-management and planning skills to plan and coordinate creative work from initial concept to realisation

technical skills to apply and adapt specialised skills related to particular art form

Required knowledge

scope of research potential for professional artists in a specialised area of creative work

relationship between ideas, technique, materials and process in the relevant art form

cultural, sociological, philosophical, aesthetic, political and commercial influences on chosen area of work, in historical and contemporary contexts

typical problems that occur during the production of a body of creative work, and how to avoid or resolve them

resource management options relevant to the chosen art form

specialised finishing techniques in the chosen art form

intellectual property issues and legislation associated with creative professional practice

sustainability issues associated with the tools and materials used in the chosen art form

organisational and legislative OHS procedures in relation to chosen art form
