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:

produce TWO complex impositions that best meet job specifications including identification of printing process, substrate surface and size

transfer the underlying skill of solving complex technical problems of imposition across the design and pre-press sectors to conform to brief specifications

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:

identify using examples of how subsequent printing processes or electronic output affect imposition

Purpose of imposition marks principles of imposition

describe the difference between saddle stitch and perfect binding

explain the purpose of head margins

explain the difference between sheetwise and work and turn

Preparation of data

explain trapping requirements that apply to specific jobs

list considerations when saving a PostScript file

name requirements of an imposition set up document

Use of imposition program

describe installation of fold and cut marks

explain how creep settings are nominated

explain creep and bottling

Output techniques

explain the need for a server signature to be available to the output station

identify the technique used to verify pictures and fonts are available

explain the purpose of a mock-up

Information sources

identify manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task, their location and the information included in them

identify other sources of available information.
