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!

LMFPF2005B - Cut mat boards

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

Prepare for cutting

  1. Patterns, dimensions, materials and quantities are identified from work/job instructions
  2. Workplace health and safety requirements relevant to the operation of cutting basic mat boards, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
  3. The process for obtaining materials/components and moving completed work to the next process is identified
  4. Work area, tools, equipment and materials are selected and checked prior to use to ensure that they are appropriate for the work in terms of quality, serviceability and safety
  5. Appropriate mat cutting machines are selected for the required cut and suitable blades are selected, fitted and adjusted for angled, circular or oval cuts
  6. Cutting equipment components and controls are identified
  7. Board material is selected following work order or specification and laid out to meet requirements and minimise waste
  8. Work sequence is planned to suit the job

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 order and locate and apply relevant information to set up, operate, adjust and monitor equipment used to cut mat boards

Identify materials, ensuring quality and aesthetics, to be used in the work process

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

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, demonstrate the ability to:

cut single and double ovals and squares

cut multiple hole and reverse bevels in each of 2 ply, 4 ply and 8 ply up to 1524 x 1017 mm

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Resource implications

Mat cutting equipment, mat boards, work orders, workplace procedures and 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 should be conducted over time and may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency which form a part of the job role.

Context of assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant mat board cutting machines/devices, work instructions and deadlines.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to 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 worksite and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

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 quantities and estimate material requirements

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate cutting problems, avoid re-working and wastage

use the limited workplace technology related to the cutting of mat boards, including drawing aids, tools, equipment, calculators and measuring devices

Required knowledge

the type, characteristics, uses and limitations of mat board materials

workflow in relation to the cutting and storing of mat boards

the types, characteristics and operation of mat cutting machines

identification of equipment, processes and procedures

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
