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!

3.4 Monitor implementation and make adjustments as required

3.5 Determine new/revised process capability

3.6 Implement revised process capability regime

Evidence of the ability to:

implement and review either ONE complex process capability system or SEVERAL smaller systems and make process improvements using process capability as a tool for monitoring and improvement or a suitable project

provide a portfolio of evidence to show that the implementation and review has included process capability studies, the improvement to process capability, and how the improvements were implemented.

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:

outline data collection and processing methods and techniques

describe concepts of variability and normal distribution

describe three sigma or six sigma processes

explain how to recognise assignable causes (random and non-random results)

outline causes of random variation

identify causes of different types of non-random results

understand process capability sufficiently to translate data into variations in the process and determine methods of controlling them.
