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!

DEFEO501D - Conduct explosive ordnance inspection

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare for inspection

  1. Requirement for explosive ordnance inspection is identified from work requests/instructions and confirmed
  2. WHS requirements, including those contained in organisational procedures, are applied throughout the operation
  3. Technical references, tools and equipment required for the inspection are identified, acquired and prepared in accordance with organisation procedures
  4. Explosive ordnance is acquired, identified and accounted for, moved or pre-positioned in preparation for inspection
  5. Net explosive quantities and compatibility are identified, calculated, assessed and applied throughout the operation

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

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

Assessment must confirm the ability to comply with:

organisational safety requirements

appropriate legislative and regulatory requirements.

Assessment must also confirm the ability to work safely within an explosive ordnance environment and to:

calculate and apply net explosive quantity

assess and apply compatibility

process explosive ordnance

maintain documentation

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 in a simulated work environment, in accordance with all relevant legislation and organisation requirements.

Specific resources for assessment

Access is required to:

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

Method of assessment

This unit may be assessed with the following unit:

DEFEO101D Work safely with explosive ordnance.

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

apply compatibility constraints

apply safety policies and structures

apply WHS requirements

calculate net explosive quantity

communicate orally and in writing

maintain documentation

read, access, interpret and apply technical instructions and drawings related to explosive ordnance inspections

use relevant tools and equipment

Required Knowledge

assessment of compatibility

calculation of net explosive quantity

characteristics and limitations of explosive ordnance to be inspected

inspection procedures

organisational documentation requirements

organisational WH&S requirements

organisational safety policies and structures

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 inspections may be conducted:

As part of a work program

On direction

On receipt

Prior to maintenance

Prior to or post any activity

And may include inspection to confirm free from explosives, the use of special measuring devices, gauges and locally patented tools

Organisation may include:

Defence organisation

Enterprises that work with explosive ordnance

Other government departments or instrumentalities that work with explosive ordnance

Technical references may include:

Technical drawings

Technical reference pamphlets

Orders and instructions

Other publications

Net explosive quantities include:

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

Inspection may result in explosive ordnance being:

Passed for use

Recommended for sentencing

Rejected

Explosive ordnance defects or damage may include:

Non-compliance with technical specifications

Corrosion

Surface damage

Processing may include:

Disposal, including:

jettisoning

ditching
