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 work orders and plan processing operations

Identify the materials, patterns/plans, processes, machines, equipment and settings to undertake a glass processing task

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

Set up for and prepare to process glass

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others
