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.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Comply with legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and establish safe practices and procedures for preparing and applying moisture barriers

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

Complete a minimum of two moisture suppressant/barrier preparations which are to include:

a hydrostatic and a capillary moisture problem to Australian standards

modify activities to cater for variations in workplace context and environment

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Context of, and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standards requirements

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

materials and equipment relevant to moisture suppressant/barrier activities

specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the Furnishing Industry Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application

Assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to work orders, basic plans and safety procedures

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, coordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate concrete sub-floor preparation problems, avoid re-working and wastage

recognise and respond to circumstances outside instructions or personal competence

plan and organise activities, including the preparation and layout of the worksite and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any back tracking, work flow interruptions or wastage

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate other material requirements

clarify and confirm work instructions

plan work within given task parameters

accept responsibility for given tasks

set, monitor and satisfy personal work goals

satisfy the competency requirements for the job

maintain current knowledge of:

tools and materials

installation techniques

seek learning opportunities

use the limited workplace technology related to the selection, preparation and application of moisture barriers and damp proof membranes to concrete sub-floors including tools, equipment, calculators and measuring devices.

Required knowledge

State or Territory OHS legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to moisture suppressants and barrier systems

organisational and site standards, requirements, policies and procedures for moisture suppressant and barrier systems

environmental protection requirements

established communication channels and protocols

problem identification and resolution

types of tools and equipment and procedures for their safe use, operation and maintenance

characteristics of materials, products and defects

set up and operation of equipment

procedures for the recording, reporting and maintenance of workplace records and information

appropriate mathematical procedures for estimation and measurement

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.

OHS requirements

are to be in accordance with Commonwealth, State or Territory legislation and regulations, organisational safety policies and procedures. Requirements may include but not be limited to the use of personal protective equipment and clothing, fire fighting equipment, First Aid equipment, hazard and risk control and elimination of hazardous materials and substances, manual handling including lifting and carrying

Legislative requirements

are to be in accordance with applicable legislation from all levels of government that affect organisational operation. Requirements may include but not be limited to award and enterprise agreements, industrial relations, Australian Standards, confidentiality and privacy, OHS, the environment, equal opportunity, anti-discrimination, relevant industry codes of practice, duty of care and heritage

Organisational requirements

may include but not be limited to legal, organisational and site guidelines, policies and procedures relating to own role and responsibility, quality assurance, procedural manuals, quality and continuous improvement processes and standards, OHS, emergency and evacuation, ethical standards, recording and reporting, access and equity principles and practices, equipment use, maintenance and storage, environmental management (waste disposal, recycling and re-use guidelines)

Instructions

Workplace procedures relating to the use and operation of tools and equipment

Workplace instructions, including job sheets, plans, drawings and designs

Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication

Manufacturer instructions for the use of equipment and materials

Treatment system

may be one of two moisture treatments, a Construction Moisture Suppressant System or a Moisture Barrier. The Moisture Suppressant System is designed for new concrete with low moisture content or capillary moisture. The Moisture Barrier is designed for concrete with hydrostatic pressure, capillary moisture or new concrete with a high moisture content
