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!

LMFGG3005C - Process glass by semi-automatic and automatic machines

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Identify work requirements

  1. Work requirements, including glass, types of cuts, shapes and edges, processes and quantities required, are identified from work instructions or job order in accordance with workplace procedures
  2. Occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including personal protective equipment, are observed throughout the work
  3. Tools, equipment and materials are selected and checked prior to use to ensure they are appropriate for the work, of the appropriate quality, serviceable and in a safe condition
  4. Cutting list and quality standards are determined and procedures identified in accordance with workplace requirements and industry standards
  5. Glass to be cut, shaped, drilled or edged is selected using information from the work order, including the type of glass, thickness, colour and dimensions
  6. Semi-automatic and automatic machines, related equipment and settings required to perform the work are identified, and information required to be entered into machine to match work requirements or job order is calculated
Work requirements, including glass, types of cuts, shapes and edges, processes and quantities required, are identified from work instructions or job order in accordance with workplace procedures

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.

Overview of assessment

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

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

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

interpret work orders and plan processing operations

identify the materials, patterns/plans, processes, machines, equipment and settings to undertake a glass cutting, drilling, shaping and/or edging task with semi-automatic or automatic machines

apply safe handling requirements for machines, 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

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

as a minimum:

process and upload computerised cutting data from optimisation software programs

load and position sheets onto semi-automatic and automatic cutting machines and/or tables

perform pre-cutting tool and machinery checks

cut given dimensions from stock sheets with minimal wastage/off-cuts

cut shapes from optimisation data

remove, pack and store cut glass, including labelling for despatch

calculate the cost of glass and edgework

work effectively with others.

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 Standard requirements.

The following resources should be made available:

semi-automatic, automatic or computerised glass processing equipment

optimisation software programs

an appropriate work area

standard operating procedures

work orders

unprocessed materials

appropriate safety and personal protection equipment.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 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 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.

Guidance information for assessment

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills include:

collecting, organising and understanding information related to work orders, basic plans and safety procedures

using communication skills to the level required to confirm work requirements and specifications; communicate effectively regarding work requirements with supervisors, other workers and customers; report work outcomes and problems; and relate to people from a range of social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and of varying physical and mental abilities

using literacy skills to the level required to understand information related to work orders, including common industry terminology, plans and safety procedures; prepare reports; and interpret technical information and specifications

planning and organising activities, including the preparation and layout of the work area, and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

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

using mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and weight, estimate glass requirements and minimise waste

using pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate processing problems, and avoid re-working and wastage

using developing workplace technology related to the processing of glass by semi-automatic and automatic machines, including computers, handling aids, tools and equipment

modifying activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Required knowledge includes:

the qualities and characteristics of glass, including hazards and handling requirements
