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:

scan, electronically combine and attribute outputs to designated devices according to job specifications and client standards

produce TWO separate images on film and /or stencil according to manufacturer's and job specifications, enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria

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 both of these. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

access to appropriate equipment and materials.

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:

directquestioning 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 interpreting the job specifications

collecting, analysing and organising information by scanning the image and combining it with data

planning and organising activities by preparing the correct sequence of operations for the combining tasks

teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with others

mathematical ideas and techniques by working with layout size during combining data

problem-solving skills by maintaining quality standards during the production process

use of technology by using relevant hardware and software to produce computer images for screen printing

Required knowledge

tolerance that is allowed when scaling the original

common scanner DPI for graphic line images

use of original angling

resolutionthat is used for optical character recognition in scanning

format that the scan is saved in

retaining formatwhen OCR scanning

access to external files

most appropriate software for this combining task

procedure if required files are not readily accessible

responsibility for determines the page layout size

type of elements that can be used

application of trapping

amount of step and repeats in a job

first step in configuring the output menu

type of output devices used in screen printing

range of substrates that are used in output devices

filing the file prior to the output device

checks made of techniques used to maintain quality standards

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.

Original may include:

line graphic or text.

Job specifications may include:

job sheets, work tickets or processing orders.

Elements may include:

text, headings, rules, pictures, graphics, tints, vignettes, components and shapes.

Material may include:

electronic storage, film, papers, fabric or other substrates.
