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

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

Evidence of the following is essential:

correctly set up machinery for basic flat bet cutting according to job specifications and within the production timeframe

demonstrate an ability to find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources

demonstrate all safety devices on the machine

competency must be demonstrated on any THREE different processes. For each process set up TWO jobs changing the type and size of substrates and design of finished patterns according to manufacturer's and job specifications, enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria

demonstrate use of computerised control, monitoring and data entry systems if available and appropriate.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of these

off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:

ICPSU201C Prepare, load and unload reels and cores on and off machine

ICPSU202C Prepare, load and unload product on and off machine

ICPSU207C Prepare machine for operation (basic)

ICPCF220C Produce basic converted or finished product.

Since the component processes often occur as in-line processes they may also be assessed at the same time as virtually any printing, converting, binding and finishing or corrugating set up.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

OHS in relation to operating machinery

communication skills to read and interpret job specifications and to complete workplace documentation

planning and organising by setting up the machine for basic flat-bed cutting

teamwork by conducting the shutdown with fellow workers

using technology by setting up the sheet delivery system

problem solving by removing substrate from the process according to job specifications

Required knowledge

information concerning flat-bed hole punching/indexing/creasing and scoring that you would expect to find in the job documentation or production control system

checks needed when cutting devices are mounted on a cylinder

checks needed when the cutting devices are attached to the machine

OHS concerns that are there when setting up reel transportation systems

adjustments to the unwind reel that may be needed to suit various jobs?

webbing procedure considerations

OHS concerns that are there when setting up sheet transportation systems

important areas to check when the feeder unit is set up

important areas of the reel delivery system that may need to be adjusted according to job specifications

steps that should be taken to ensure that the delivery system operates effectively

OHS factors that must be considered when setting up and/or operating machine delivery systems

checks needed when substrate is removed from the machine

ways in which the finished product can be secured for dispatch

OHS factors that must be considered when setting up cutting devices

determining machine pressure

determining machine cutting depths

the need to adjust in-line units

details of the completed sample that should be examined to ensure conformance to the client's requirements

cutting tools and equipment storage to guard against damage and deterioration

machine manuals, safety and other documentation that are relevant to this task and where they are kept

information that is included in these documents

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.

Cutting process may include:

perforating, sprocket hole punching, slotting, sheeting, slitting, creasing, scoring.

Substrate handling may include:

wide or narrow reel or large or small sheet handling systems.

Flat-bed cutting units may include:

a range of machines with dies or cutting formes and manual, semi-automated, fully automated or computerised process control.

In-line processes may include:

minor processes that are integral to this competency can include basic in-line operations such as numbering, date coding. Where a major in-line process is defined as a separate competency (eg folding) it should be assessed as such.

Substrate types may include:

range of substrates within the major categories of paper, pressure sensitive material, board, plastics and related films, corrugated board or metal.
