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 and produce a hand-made box 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

produce TWO boxes in different styles and materials, at least ONE of which must have a lid, according to manufacturer's and job specifications, enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria.

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.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

OHS in relation to using tools and operating equipment

communication skills when discussing options and styles with the client

planning and organising when determining the final job specifications and selecting materials

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

using technology when cutting the board, cover material and lining to size

problem solving when selecting board weight, covering and lining to meet job specifications

Required knowledge

OHS concerns that are there when making boxes

necessary board calliper for a box

maximum calliper for a folded box

inconspicuous corner reinforcements

appropriate covering material and style

style of box that is appropriate

recommended allowances in a book box

in slip cases, techniques that can be used to reduce scuffing of a book cover

need to cover the edge of a board before attaching the main covering

consequence of adhesives that are too thick or too thin

open time of an adhesive affect on the covering process

criteria that are used to evaluate a finished box

ensuring a clean finished job

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.

Materials may include:

range of materials including board, paper, bookcloth, buckram.

Types of boxes may include:

range of boxes including loose lid, hinged lid, drop front, clamshell, book box, cruciform box, slip case, solander box.
