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

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to implement and review production standards and procedures for the processing of market milk and related products.

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

Critical aspects of assessment must include evidence of the ability to: implement process control procedures and data collection to process milk and related products; carry out sensory evaluation and product testing; diagnose and report problems for manufacturing; and review the production system for food safety and quality and environmental impact.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment of performance requirements in this unit should be undertaken within the context of food technology. Competency is demonstrated by performance of all stated criteria, including the critical aspects and knowledge and skills elaborated in the Evidence Guide, and within the scope as defined by the Range Statements applicable to the workplace environment.

Assessment must occur in a real or simulated workplace where the assessee has access to:

Production process and related equipment, manufacturers’ advice and operating procedures

Methods and related software systems as required for collecting data and calculating yields, efficiencies and material variances appropriate to production environment

Tests used to report relevant product/process information and recorded results.

Method of assessment

The following assessment methods are suggested:

Written and/or oral questioning to assess knowledge and understanding

Observation of candidate conducting a range of processes and tests

A report on a review of the production system.

Guidance information for assessment

Evidence should be gathered over a period of time in a range of actual or simulated environments.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills include:

Ability to:

implement handling and storage procedures for market milk and related products
