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!

Evidence of the ability to:

analyse job specifications and develop practical solutions to printing a non-standard product

safely set up and use a raster image processor (RIP) and digital printing machine for a specialised job on TWO occasions according to manufacturer's and job specifications and enterprise procedures.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

name who to discuss any production problems with

describe all functions and settings available on a particular RIP or front-end processor

explain advanced RIP settings, such as dynamic variables to select stock

explain where to source information on complex raster image processor RIP usage

discuss types of substrates suitable for various digital processes

explain the theory behind several digital processes and how this impacts substrate usage

outline problem-solving methodologies, including empirical, ishikawa and brainstorming

name online forums and networks which might be useful points of reference for this role

list work health and safety (WHS) issues in relation to each digital process

show where documentation or other information can be found on specialised digital processes.
