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!

Apply evaluation criteria

  1. Drawings, mood boards and all associated documentation is examined to identify all features of the finished design
  2. Finished design is evaluated against original design concept
  3. The design and all specifications are evaluated against project brief to check consistency
  4. The design is evaluated to identify how well elements and principles of design have been applied
  5. The design is evaluated for consistency with current industry trends and influences
  6. The design is evaluated to ensure client suitability including adherence to time and budget requirements
  7. The design is evaluated for quality and innovative elements
  8. Processes engaged to develop finished design are evaluated for effectiveness in achieving final outcomes

Suggest design improvements

  1. Factors affecting the outcome of the project are examined and documented
  2. Suggestions are made for adjustments to design to increase its ability to meet criteria
  3. Technical design skills are used to reflect evaluation outcomes and communicate improvements
  4. Potential design improvements are identified and tested for viability
  5. Selection, adaptation and introduction of materials, tools, technology and design processes are applied to design improvements
  6. Compliance with intellectual and copyright requirements is observed when incorporating ideas from others
  7. Evaluation report is compiled and produced

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

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

Effectively evaluate three design project outcomes including one residential and one commercial design, against project brief and additional evaluation criteria listed in the range statement

Effectively apply design elements and principles in evaluating design project outcomes

Comply with legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and procedures for evaluating design project outcomes

Communicate effectively and work safely with others in the work area

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 evaluating design project outcomes

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
