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!

FWPTMM4201 - Construct prototypes and samples

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

Prepare for construction

  1. Review prototype or sample purpose, work order and construction plans and where required clarify requirements with appropriate personnel.
  2. Obtain type and quantity of material to be assembled and hardware in line with prototype construction plan and specifications.
  3. Select appropriate tools and equipment and check for operational effectiveness in line with manufacturer's recommendations.
  4. Plan and document stages of the construction process.
Review prototype or sample purpose, work order and construction plans and where required clarify requirements with appropriate personnel.
