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 established safe practices and procedures for planning and costing flooring operations

Interpret specifications and instructions for products and materials to be used

Interpret work orders

Document and communicate work-related information including: customer requirements, products, materials and labour required, costing calculations for products, materials and labour, and special conditions

Use of calculators, computer programs and other aids in the estimation and cost calculation processes

Estimate and cost three varied jobs including:

estimate quantities of material required

determine the types and amount of labour required to complete the work

estimate time required to complete the work

estimate overheads associated with the job

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

a realistic planning and costing requirement

a customer requiring technical, planning and costing advice

specific information covering materials, equipment, labour and overheads required for the planning and costing work

specifications and work instructions

details of the work requirements and options

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 other related units of competency e.g. Inspect sub-floors

Required Skills and Knowledge
