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 provide evidence that they can prepare and advise on a broad range of timber wall frame details using computers

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

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements of this unit and include demonstration of:

following applicable Commonwealth, State or Territory legislative and regulatory requirements and codes of practice relevant to preparing and advising on a broad range of timber wall frame details using computers

following organisational policies and procedures relevant to preparing and advising on a broad range of timber wall frame details using computers

the ability to prepare and advise on a broad range of timber wall frame details using computers

preparation of wall frame layouts and production documentation for each wall frame type identified in the range statement

preparation of wall frame layouts and production documentation where interaction between wall frame types is required

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment of required knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standards requirements

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

materials and equipment relevant to undertaking work applicable to this unit

specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the FPI11 Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of required knowledge

Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks, with questioning on required knowledge and it must also reinforce the integration of employability skills

Assessment methods must confirm the ability to access and correctly interpret and apply the required knowledge

Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency

The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate

Assessment practices should take into account any relevant language or cultural issues related to Aboriginality, gender or language backgrounds other than English

Where the participant has a disability, reasonable adjustment may be applied during assessment

Language and literacy demands of the assessment task should not be higher than those of the work role

Required Skills and Knowledge

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level required for this unit.

Required skills

Technical skills sufficient to accurately prepare wall frame drawings, production documents and installation instructions and test designs and specifications using custom software

Communication skills sufficient to interact with and provide production and installation advice to a range of stakeholders

Literacy skills sufficient to interpret design requirements, research evaluate and communicate design concepts, interpret workplace documents and technical information, prepare accurate and detailed advice and instruction to a range of stakeholders

Numeracy skills sufficient to evaluate areas, volumes, loads, pressures, mass and grades, analyse qualitative and quantitative information and data

Problem solving skills sufficient to identify problems and appropriate response procedures

Required knowledge

Applicable Commonwealth, State or Territory legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices relevant to the full range of processes for preparing and advising on a broad range of wall frame drawings, production documents and installation instructions using custom software

Organisational and site standards, requirements, policies and procedures relevant to interpreting plans and designs to prepare a broad range of timber wall frame drawings and production documents using computers

Environmental protection requirements, including the safe disposal of waste material
