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!

FWPCOT4222 - Plan for and supervise timber treatment plant operations

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Plan for implementing treatment plant operations

  1. Confirm workplace health and safety, environmental protection, containment, quality and operational practices and/or procedures for chemical treatment of timber
  2. Identify hazards, assess potential risks and confirm risk mitigation measures, including use of personal protective equipment, associated with timber treatment operations
  3. Confirm legislation, standards and codes of practice relevant to timber treatment plant operations
  4. Confirm type, components, operating parameters, capability and capacity of treatment plant
  5. Inspect raw materials, identify possible production and quality implications and communicate variations to production methods to team members
  6. Assess preservative type and formulation, treatment process, treatment suitability of wood and estimate solution absorption
  7. Apply timber treatment schedules according to workplace procedures and environmental protection practices and/or procedures
  8. Plan and prescribe waste minimisation and control measures
  9. Check serviceability of plant control and product testing equipment
  10. Establish and maintain communication with others according to workplace procedures and workplace health and safety requirements

Supervise treatment plant operations

  1. Check and interpret charge sheets and reconciliation statements to ensure accuracy
  2. Check and analyse process trends for optimum performance
  3. Monitor treatment operations and output to record possible process improvements and to ensure maximum cost effectiveness
  4. Control non-conforming treated timber according to workplace procedures and environmental protection practices and/or procedures
  5. Investigate causes of solution imbalance and implement appropriate possible corrective actions
  6. Investigate, record and report treatment operations, operational problems and equipment faults according to workplace requirements
