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

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.

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

Evidence of ability to:

identify planing and shaping requirements

select, fit and use personal protective clothing and/or equipment

confirm status of equipment

collect and position materials according to job and equipment requirements

set up, operate and shut down equipment

monitor and adjust process and equipment during operation

confirm that components meet specification

Context of and specific resources for assessment

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

Planing and shaping equipment

Relevant measuring instrumentation

Materials for planing and/or shaping

Drawings, templates and specifications as required

Operating procedures and related advice on equipment/instrumentation operation

Personal protective clothing and equipment

Housekeeping standards and procedures

Method of assessment

Other units of competency relevant to the work role should be assessed in conjunction with this unit.

Guidance information for assessment

To ensure consistency in one's performance, competency should be demonstrated on more than one occasion over a period of time in order to cover a variety of circumstances, cases and responsibilities, and where possible, over a number of assessment activities.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills include:

Ability to:

identify planing and shaping requirements - this may require interpretation of technical drawings or sketches

select, fit and use personal protective clothing and/or equipment

confirm status of equipment, that safety guards are in place, equipment is fit for operation and required services are available

collect and position materials according to job and equipment requirements

set up, operate and shut down equipment according to workplace procedures to meet job specification

monitor and adjust process and equipment during operation to stay within specification

confirm that components meet specification - this may involve the use of measuring instruments

maintain work area to meet housekeeping standards

Required knowledge includes:

Knowledge of:

relevant state OHS legislation, standards and codes of practice relating to work responsibilities

relevant site operating procedures and practices

purpose and basic operating principles of planing and shaping equipment and accessories - this includes awareness of equipment operating capacities

care, maintenance and storage of tool parts and accessories

scope to adjust machining parameters and related effect on outcome

the impact of machining parameters and materials used on tool life

safe work procedures including awareness of health and safety hazards related to the operation of the planing and shaping equipment

housekeeping standards for the work area

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.

Policies and procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with company policies and procedures, licensing requirements, manufacturer's recommendations, legislative requirements, codes of practice and industrial awards and agreements.

Codes of practice

Codes of practice include the Sugar Milling Operations Industry Code of Practice.

Planing and shaping operations

Work is undertaken to predetermined specifications

Planes and shapers are not CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines.

Typical operations include slotting, planing and cutting flats.

Machining parameters

Machining parameters are typically given and include speeds, feeds, stops, coolant and cutting lubricants

Measuring instrumentation

Measuring instrumentation may include

callipers

dividers

verniers

micrometers

rulers.

Pre-operational checks

Pre-operational checks may include

confirming that safety guards are in place

equipment is operational

other pre-start checks as required by workplace procedure.

Routine maintenance

Basic routine maintenance includes cleaning and lubrication.

Teamwork

Work may require the ability to work within a team environment.
