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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the relevant Training Package.

Critical aspects of evidence

Locate, access and interpret relevant information

Apply safety requirements throughout the work sequence, including the use of personal protective clothing and equipment

Manage design within an enterprise, including:

identify design objectives and goals

plan design activities

implement the design work plan

monitor and respond to design performance

Communicate effectively with design team and customers

Maintain accurate records

Resource implications

Access to real or appropriately simulated situations involving the management of design activities

This includes real or simulated work areas, materials, equipment, and information on work specifications, customer requirements and quality standards, organisation procedures and relevant safety procedures and regulations

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency, or the potential for consistency, of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of work, evidence portfolios and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment should be conducted over time and may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.

Context of assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant workloads, staff, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Required Skills and Knowledge

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.

Required skills

research, collect, organise and understand information related to design management, including the relevant legal, technical, regulatory, fiscal, cultural, environmental and safety requirements

communicate ideas and information to enable clarification of the management requirements, coordination of work and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities to optimise the use of resources and avoid any back tracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and foster the team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly determine resource and cost requirements

create and apply systematic problem solving techniques to anticipate problems, avoid reworking and avoid wastage

use the workplace technology related to management, including computing/ computer-aided information management systems

Required knowledge

intellectual property law provisions

design and production issues:

fundamentals of the elements and principles of design

the industry, trends and knowledge of product design

product construction techniques and processes

detailed knowledge of a range of materials

research sources

management issues:

contemporary management and leadership practices

enterprise resource management policies and procedures/practices

enterprise fiscal management policies and procedures/practices

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 in the Performance Criteria is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation

Unit scope

The management of design involves clarification and confirmation of design objectives and goals, the resourcing and management of design activities and the processing of outcomes for acceptance by the client

Activities may include:

liaising with client and/or other functional areas

identifying constraints to the design or proposal requirements

compiling information

preparing/confirming proposal and terms/ conditions

Unit context

OHS requirements include legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods codes and safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, organisation insurance requirements, OHS legislation, environmental legislation, manual handling procedures and relevant health regulations

Work requires individuals to demonstrate leadership and organisational abilities, sensitivity, judgement and problem solving skills

Workplace environment

The competency can refer to enterprise and client design ideas or requests

The competency is used independently within routine and non-routine situations

Information and procedures
