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!

ICTTEN403 - Assign a transmission path

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

Collect data to evaluate capability of transmission path

  1. Determine service details from service request
  2. Use transmission medium plans to locate customer position relative to the access network provisioning
  3. Evaluate existing transmission mediums in close proximity to assess their capability to deliver service to customer
  4. Specify equipment to be used on the service from service request
  5. Specify line interface type to be used, according to enterprise guidelines
