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!

Maintain quality

  1. The locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known
  2. A sample from the machine is selected and checked to ensure it matches the required standards
  3. Adjustments are made when the standards are not met
  4. Each in-line process is monitored and minor adjustments are made during production, if required
  5. Samples are continuously monitored for defects and defects are removed
  6. The efficiency, quality and output rate of the production run are monitored for problems and any deficiencies resolved
  7. Wastage is monitored, kept to a minimum and correctly disposed of according to enterprise quality standards

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:

maintain the throughput of sack or bag machines consistently over a period of time

demonstrate all safety devices on the machine

for valid and reliable assessment of this unit, evidence should be gathered over a period of time through a range of methods for assessment to indicate consistent performance

evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of both of theses. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

machinery used to produce sacks and bags.

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.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

OHS in relation to operating machinery such as safely switching off machinery before cleaning is started

communication skills when checking and confirming all details required for the job against job specifications

planning and organising by monitoring wastage, keeping it to a minimum and correctly disposing of it

teamwork when maintaining the production process by working in association with others

using technology by monitoring and running sack and bag machines

problem solving when selecting and checking a sample from the machine to ensure it conforms to the required quality standards

Required knowledge

common faults associated with sack or bag manufacturing machines, what causes them and how to correct them

enterprise documentation procedures

enterprise quality standards

enterprise faults procedures

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.

Job specifications may include:

job sheets, batch processing orders, job specs.

Substrate types may include:

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