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!

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

Confirm custom made footwear requirements

  1. Client requirements and design specifications are reviewed and confirmed
  2. Materials required for production are determined, availability is confirmed and special or 'one-off' materials ordered from appropriate suppliers
  3. Pattern is reviewed to ensure compliance with design requirements
  4. Design features are clarified with pattern maker, if required and technical aspects of production are identified
