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 machine for complex rotary die cutting or embossing 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 EITHER rotary die cutting OR embossing. For either process set up TWO complex jobs (including in-line processes) with different substrates, sizes and 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

The following assessment method is 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:

ICPCF320C Produce complex converted or finished product.

checked to ensure the suitability of in-line process

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

common faults that can occur with the rotary cutting process

factors that indicate a need for the replacement of knives/blades/cutting edges

cutting edges and counter knives (anvils) should be stored to guard against damage and deterioration

items that must be checked against the client's sample

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

rotary die and forme cutting, embossing.

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.

Rotary 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 perforating, numbering, date coding, slitting that do not in themselves constitute another defined unit of competency. Where a major in-line process is defined as a separate competency (eg flat-bed cutting, folding) it should be assessed as such.

Shapes may include:

simple, multiple shapes.

Substrate handling may include:

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