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 wood objects or a single major work that show some technical proficiency in chosen techniques

work with ideas and techniques and bring them together in finished work

adapt the capabilities of woodworking techniques and resources.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure access to:

tools, equipment and materials used to produce wood objects.

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 technical execution of work pieces produced by the candidate

direct observation of woodworking in progress

questioning and discussion of the candidate’s intentions and work

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:

CUVPRP301A Produce creative work.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

communication skills to discuss ideas for wood items with others

learning skills to:

improve techniques to produce wood objects through practice and some experimentation

respond constructively to feedback

literacy skills to interpret information about historical and contemporary wood practice

numeracy skills to calculate quantities of materials

planning and organising skills to organise resources required to produce wood objects

self-management skills to take responsibility for the process of creating work.

Required knowledge

ways of exploring techniques and materials to achieve different effects in woodworking

physical properties and capabilities of a range of materials, tools and equipment used in woodworking

work space requirements for woodworking, including ways of organising and maintaining space

cleaning, maintenance and storage procedures for woodworking tools, materials and equipment

historical and theoretical contexts for woodworking

elements and principles of design and their particular application to woodwork

intellectual property considerations for any person making creative work

sustainability considerations associated with the use of woodworking tools, materials and equipment

OHS procedures that apply to woodworking.

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Ideas may be influenced by:

current capability with techniques

historical and theoretical contexts

subject matter or theme for the work, such as:
