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!

following logical, complex analysis techniques

using appropriate information technology and software

identifying, reviewing and analysing information that may impact on the simulator operational testing including mathematical outcomes

identifying simulator test abnormalities

determining simulator testing remedial action
