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

Evidence is required in manufacturing stockfeeds containing micronutrients and additives to required specification and quality including correct identification of risk factors and risk mitigation procedures.

Assessment must be carried out in a manner that recognises the cultural and literacy requirements of the assessee and is appropriate to the work performed. Competence in this unit must be achieved in accordance with food safety standards and regulations.

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

Evidence of ability to:

identify and interpret micronutrients and additives requirements from stockfeed recipes and production schedules

relate micronutrients and additives to correct stockfeed

follow correct contamination, quality and sequencing procedures

liaise with nutritionist and other professional and technical staff on micronutrients and additives requirements of stockfeed.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The candidate is to be assessed on micronutrients and additives relevant to the stockfeed products and processes in the workplace.

Method of assessment

Evidence may include direct observation, third party report, portfolio, work documentation, response to questions, and so on that address the performance criteria and critical aspects for assessment.

Guidance information for assessment

Performance against this standard must be assessed in an industry context. For valid and reliable assessment the activity should closely replicate the work environment, circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a workplace.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

Ability to:

identify scheduled additives (S4)

store and handle micronutrients and additives

follow mixing and addition procedures for micronutrients and additives

read labels to identify:

target and non-target species

dose /addition level

withholding period

expiry dates

storage and handling requirements

manufacturer's name

product and active ingredient name

use oral communication skills/language competence to fulfil the job role as specified by the organisation, including questioning, active listening, asking for clarification and seeking advice from supervisor

work cooperatively within a culturally diverse workforce

Required knowledge

Knowledge of:

contamination avoidance, quality and sequencing procedures

risk factors for cross transference

withholding periods

OHS procedures for micronutrients and additives

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, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Micronutrients and additives

Micronutrients and additives may range from common proprietary products to specific micronutrients and additives prescribed by veterinarians or covered by legislative requirements

Hazards and risks

The range of hazards and risks associated with micronutrients and additives use includes:

Cross-contamination of micronutrients and additives for different feeds and recipes

wrong formula and other errors especially failure to read formula correctly

incorrect volume/measurement/proportion

Stockfeed

Stockfeed includes feed commercially produced and branded by enterprises as well as customer provided formulations.

The range of stockfeed can include:

pellets

liquids

mashes

blocks

Target species

Target species may include:

land and marine animals raised commercially for meat, skin products and milk
