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 ability to:

manage and adjust the digital data to conform to print requirements prior to digital printing and produce personalised digital print runs that involve setting the data files and ensuring the correct sequence

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

digital printer.

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 of ideas and informationby placing data in the correct sequence required for the run

collecting, analysing and organising information by identifying the requirements of the job

planning and organising activities by correctly identifying post-printing requirements

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

mathematical ideas and techniques by checking data, where relevant, to ensure it is uncorrupted

problem-solving skills by making adjustments to the machine when production standards are not met

use of technology by setting up a digital printing press for variable data printing

Required knowledge

job requirements

information sources

workflow

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.

Correct materials may include:

glues, papers, coated and uncoated, pre-printed.

Printing machine may include:

production speeds, at least 30 duplex pages per minute, and quality of at least600 dpi.

Personalised may include:

involves the recipient's name and/address at least once.
