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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.

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

Assessment must confirm the ability to:

adhere to relevant WHS requirements and operational safety procedures

calculate net explosive quantity

apply compatibility and security procedures

use correct entry procedures

Consistency in performance

Competency should be demonstrated in a range of actual or simulated explosive ordnance contexts.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Context of assessment

Competency should be assessed in the workplace or under conditions, which accurately simulate a realistic workplace in accordance with all relevant legislation and organisational requirements.

Specific resources for assessment

Access is required to:

facilities and resources used in the packaging, storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance, including a licensed explosive site.

Method of assessment

In a public safety environment assessment is usually conducted via direct observation in a training environment or in the workplace via subject matter supervision and/or mentoring, which is typically recorded in a competency workbook.

Assessment is completed using appropriately qualified assessors who select the most appropriate method of assessment.

Assessment may occur in an operational environment or in an industry-approved simulated work environment. Forms of assessment that are typically used include:

direct observation

interviewing the candidate

journals and workplace documentation

third party reports from supervisors

written or oral questions.

Required Skills and Knowledge

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.

Required Skills

access, read, interpret and apply technical information

apply compatibility

apply emergency procedures

apply safety procedures

apply security procedures

calculate net explosive quantity

read and interpret job instructions, workplace forms and reports

Required Knowledge

alarm systems

basic static electricity

building signs and symbols

building types, categories and classes

compatibility requirements

earthing procedures

emergency procedures

firefighting equipment

licensing limitations

net explosive quantity calculations

personal protection equipment requirements

security procedures

written communication to a level required to complete workplace forms, reports and update records

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 in the Performance Criteria is detailed below.

Explosive ordnance storage areas/facilities may include:

Explosive ordnance storage areas on board ships

Field storage equivalents or temporary storage areas/facilities

Home base or remote areas

Magazines

Purpose designed structures

Warehouses

Workshops

Organisation may include:

Defence organisation

Enterprises that work with explosive ordnance

Other government departments or instrumentalities that work with explosive ordnance

Security and safety of explosive areas/facilities may include:

Exiting

Inspections

Opening and venting the facility

Updating records and display boards

Tests may include:

Earthing

Static electricity tests

Net explosive quantity includes:

Explosive capacity calculated in a wide range of activities related to the storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance

Compatibility is:

Assessed in a wide range of activities related to the storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance and other hazardous materials
