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:

produce a complex coated product on either a reel- or sheet-fed machine ensuring an efficient production flow that maintains product quality standards. Any production problems are anticipated and rectified with minimum downtime. The machine is correctly shut down and cleaned according to OHS guidelines

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

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

produce THREE complex coating jobs (one spot coating, one overall coating and one fine detail, using THREE different coatings one of which must be metallic and if possible including at least ONE in-line process) according to job specifications, enterprise procedures and the Performance Criteria

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

a print machine or a dedicated coating machine.

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:

ICPPR471C Set up for complex coating.

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 information by providing feedback to internal and external clients about printing, in-line processes and job specifications

collecting, analysing and organising information by collating details of job and machine specifications and coating processes to ensure efficient production

planning and organising activities by coordinating sequences for coating and wash-up

teamwork when communicating with work team members and workers involved in prior and subsequent processes to ensure efficient production

mathematical ideas and techniques by calculating consumables and personnel requirements to meet production schedules

problem-solving skills by identifying coating problems and correcting during print run

use of technology by using monitoring systems, understanding their output and feeding into production management systems

Required knowledge

action if vital information were missing from the job ticket

checks that should be undertaken prior to set up (availability of materials etc)

major OHS concerns when setting up the sheet or reel transportation system

effect of fanning the sheets before loading into the press

setting and checking the double sheet detector during the print run

effect on the print of excessive tension on the rewinding reel

effect if the web is not spliced correctly

precautions that should be taken to ensure that the rewound product is of consistent acceptable quality

if sheeted, components that can be adjusted to ensure correct delivery

identifying printed material that is not of an acceptable standard

major OHS concerns when coating

action that could be taken if the aqueous coating was smudging on the delivery section of the machine

effects anti set off spray could have on the finished job

level the coating should be maintained in the pan

effect the UV lamp has on the UV coating

varying the temperature and volume of hot and cold air knives

use of IR radiation (including choice of medium or short wave lamps) and its effect when using coatings

dangers that exist from solvents and solutions used to clean the coating system, plates, cylinders and the press

parts of the machine that should be thoroughly cleaned following the coating of the job

components that are to be inspected for wear following the print run

records that are important for following or repeat prints

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

Substrate handling may include:

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

Machines may include:

a range of dedicated coating and printing machines with manual, semi-automated, fully automated or computerised process control.

Coatings may include:

a range of carbon, carbonless, latex, wax, resin and metallic coatings, aqueous and UV varnishes and machine varnishes.

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.

Colour matching systems may include:

use of visual colour assessment and densitometry to match basic standard tints under controlled lighting conditions.

Design may include:

spot coating, overall coating and fine detail coating.

Substrate types may include:

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