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 of Evidence

Interpret glass and glazing requirement and accurately determine solutions to meet work situations/customer queries

Identify and confirm requirements/customer expectations

Locate, interpret and apply information for situation to be assessed

As a minimum, demonstrate the ability to:

apply the requirements of AS1288 (requires an understanding of scope, definitions, abbreviations and symbols)

determine thickness limits for standard nominal thickness of glass

identify and calculate aspect ratios

identify regional boundaries, terrain categories and their description

determine minimum nominal glass thicknesses for various glazing situations using wind loading design charts and tables

identify types of safety glazing materials

determine the safety glazing materials for various glazing situations

determine safety glazing material thicknesses from flow charts

identify basic installation details for glazing

identify the design considerations and glazing techniques for toughened glass assemblies

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace cultures and environment

Resource Implications

Work requirements, workplace operating procedures, personal protective equipment and an appropriate work area.

Method of Assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

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

Context of Assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a simulated workplace facility with relevant glass and glazing requirements, simulated work instructions and commitments.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

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

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

plan and organise activities including the preparation and layout of the work area and the obtaining of information and reference materials to facilitate assessment, avoid workflow interruptions and assist efficacy of solutions

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

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate work requirements, optimise glass sizes for application and assemble required resources

apply knowledge, analytical skills and tools to assist in the assessment of glass and glazing requirements to plan work, providing effective and acceptable solutions

use the workplace technology related to the assessment of glass and glazing requirements

Required knowledge

workplace operating procedures and AS1288

the qualities and characteristics of glass, including types, qualities, applications and limitations

products and processes and current trends and developments in glass and glazing techniques/applications

workflow and operating requirements of work systems in own work area

workplace safety system requirements related to the handling and installation of glass

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.

Unit context

OHS requirements may include legislation, standards, building codes, material safety management systems and local safe operating procedures

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

Work requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the planning, setting up and freefalling of glass from a rack to a table

Work may be performed in workplaces which are involved in the manufacture, processing and/or installation of sheet glass

Work is generally performed individually and may be on a one-to-one basis with a customer/supervisor, with only limited supervision and may be part of a production process

Glass and glazing assessment

Glass and glazing assessment involves the assessment required for all glass and glazing tasks. It may be a formal and documented process or an informal on-the-job assessment of a situation/requirement.

Factors which may influence the assessment include:

residential and commercial applications

building height/limitations

wind loading considerations

regional boundaries/zones

terrain description/categories

human impact considerations

Tools and equipment may include:

tape measures

calculators

glass thickness and glazing material indicators

product data and samples

relevant standards/codes

stationery and calculator

Personal protective equipment

Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise practices and procedures. It may include:

gauntlets

gloves

safety glasses

hard hats

safety footwear

aprons and overalls

Information and procedures

Work procedures/instructions relating to assessment of glass and glazing requirements

Regulatory/legislative requirements, particularly those pertaining to building codes, OHS and environmental requirements

Manufacturer specifications and instructions, particularly those pertaining to new products/developments

Organisation work specifications and requirements

Authorised organisational or external personnel

Australian standards: AS1288, 2208, 1170.2, HB125
