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:

reclaim screens, preferably of different mesh and stencil types commonly used in the industry, using manual techniques, according to job specifications

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

reclaim THREE screens, preferably of different mesh and stencil types commonly used in the workplace, using manual techniques, according to manufacturer's and job specifications, enterprise procedures and the listed 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:

skills and knowledge are demonstrated in a range of situations and in an environment that realistically reflects the workplace

access to a range of relevant tools, equipment, materials, resources and documentation used when reclaiming screens in the printing industry

application of the most current workplace procedures, processes and techniques used in the printing industry.

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 correctly identifying and labelling screens

collecting, analysing and organising information by correctly identifying ink and stencil type

planning and organising activities by selecting and preparing chemicals and solvents before washing and storing screens

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with fellow workers

mathematical ideas and techniques by preparing the reclamation chemicals

problem-solving skills by rectifying damage to screens according to enterprise procedures

use of technology by using a pressure gun with associated safety equipment

Required knowledge

significance of mesh count

treatment of screens with different mesh counts

mesh and frame faults

common faults that could occur in meshes and frames

ink/stencil types

ink removal procedures for THREE different inks

stencil removal procedures for TWO stencil types

chemical selection and preparation

chemicals available for screen reclamation

reasons for selecting chemicals and method for screen reclamation

chemical handling and disposal

main considerations when handling and disposing of chemicals

reclamation techniques

various screen reclamation techniques available in the industry

reasons for selecting and applying a specific technique for screen reclamation

OHS constraints

hazards to be aware of in reclaiming screens

enterprise material handling policies?

enterprise policies on management of waste?

personal protective clothing that should be worn when reclaiming screens

manuals, safety and other relevant documentation and the information 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.

Ink, stencil and frametypes may include:

ink systems, stencil and frame types in common use in specific industry sectors.

Chemical type may include:

chemicals and solvents commonly used for the reclamation of screens.

Enterprise procedures may include:

tasks must be performed according to enterprise procedures and OHS requirements.

Mesh type may include:

all types of mesh material, thread counts, thicknesses, colours and weaves used in specific industry sectors.

Tension measurement techniques may include:

various different tension measurement techniques in common use in specific industry sectors.

Degree of autonomy may include:

working under supervision to previously defined procedures to ensure production requirements are met.
