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!

ICPSP222C - Prepare and cut screen print substrate

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare substrate

  1. Substrates selected are of suitable quality according to job specifications and the end use of the product
  2. Substrate is inspected and print capability assessed, including the need for any special preparation requirements
  3. Necessary preventive action is taken to avoid wastage and to ensure best yield with respect to grain direction and the type of substrate selected
  4. Substrate is suitably pre-treated, where required
Substrates selected are of suitable quality according to job specifications and the end use of the product

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:

inspect and cut substrate according to job specifications

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

guillotine and associated equipment.

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 ensuring substrate quality standards

collecting, analysing and organising information by inspecting the substrate and its print capability, including the need for any special preparation requirements

planning and organising activities by taking necessary preventive action to avoid wastage and to ensure best yield with respect to grain direction and the type of substrate selected

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

mathematical ideas and techniques by setting clamping pressures and adjusting them according to job specifications

problem-solving skills by checking quality of cuts to ensure quality standards are met

use of technology by using guillotines and other equipment to prepare and cut screen print substrate

Required knowledge

information contained in job specifications

process for checking guillotine knives

guillotine set up and operation

safe guillotine handling and operation

proper stacking and storage of processed substrate

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.

Substrates may include:

range of substrates in categories of paper, paperboard, corrugated board, plastics.

Cut may include:

single knife, manual guillotines.
