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 prepare substrates for screen printing according to job specifications

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

select and process TWO substrates commonly used within the industry sector 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 both of theses. 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 operating machinery such as safely switching off machinery before cleaning is started

communication of ideas and information by implementing user maintenance requirements

collecting, analysing and organising information by inspecting substrates and assessing their print capacity

planning and organising activities by selecting substrate to ensure best yield according to job specifications

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with fellow workers

mathematical ideas and techniques by appropriately storing materials and substrate

problem-solving skills by disposing of waste and offcuts according to enterprise procedures

use of technology by using basic tools to prepare substrates

Required knowledge

safe handling of processing equipment and tools

OHS concerns when preparing substrates

safe practices for handling substrates and equipment

identification of chosen substrate

identity of each of the chosen substrates

final application of each of the substrates after printing

choosing the grade/thickness of substrate

preparation and pre-treatment of substrate before printing

defects and irregularities of the substrate

pre-treatment of the surface that is required before printing

tests that should be undertaken to determine the suitability of the substrate for printing

ensuring the best yield from substrate sheet/roll to prevent wastage

substrate cutting to obtain the least wastage

processing substrate according to job specifications

equipment/tools you use for preparing substrate

substrate preparation and the quality of preparation monitoring

proper stacking and storage of processed substrate

handling and storage procedures that are there to prevent damage to substrate prior to printing

substrate preparation according to job specifications

proper disposal of offcuts and environmental implications

correct procedures for the disposal of offcuts of substrate

environmental and conservation procedures that should be carried out

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.

Type of substrate may include:

substrates commonly used within the industry relative to industry sectors.

Quality standards may include:

should meet client requirements and enterprise and industry standards.

Enterprise procedures may include:

tasks must be performed according to enterprise procedures.

Conversion methods may include:

variety of methods of converting substrate of a type commonly used in the industry relative to industry sectors.

Degree of autonomy may include:

performing work under supervision to defined procedures to ensure production requirements are met.
