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!

DEFEO715C - Gauge explosive ordnance

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

Prepare for gauging of explosive ordnance

  1. Requirement for explosive ordnance gauging is identified from work requests/instructions and is confirmed
  2. Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including those contained in organisational procedures, are applied throughout the operation
  3. Technical references, tools and equipment required for the gauging are identified, acquired and prepared in accordance with organisational procedures
  4. Explosive ordnance to be gauged is acquired, prepared, moved and positioned in preparation for the task
  5. Net explosive quantities and compatibility are identified, calculated, assessed and applied throughout the operation
  6. Environmental conditions are monitored and maintained in accordance with organisational policy

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:

ensure the item is compliant upon completion of gauging task

comply with organisational safety requirements and appropriate legislative and regulatory requirements

Assessment must also confirm the ability to:

work safely within an explosive ordnance environment

calculate and apply net explosive quantity

assess and apply compatibility

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 workplace environment, in accordance with all relevant legislation and organisational 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 environmental constraints

apply safety policies and structures

calculate net explosive quantity

conduct housekeeping

maintain documentation

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

use tools and equipment

Required Knowledge

assessment of compatibility

calculation of net explosive quantity

characteristics and limitations of explosive ordnance to be gauged

effects of environmental conditions

gauging procedures

operations, characteristics and limitations of tools and equipment required for the breaking down of explosive ordnance

organisational documentation requirements

organisational safety information sources

organisational safety policies and structures

Range Statement
