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!

LMTTX4002A - Understand and apply textile science

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

Identify the physical and chemical properties of textiles materials

  1. The textile material is identified using specifications, work sheets or documentation
  2. Unknown textile material is referred to appropriate personnel for identification
  3. The physical properties of the textile material are identified using product specifications, work sheets or documentation and research techniques
  4. The chemical properties of the textiles or textile material are identified using product specifications, work sheets or documentation and research techniques
  5. Where required, standard tests are undertaken according to OHS practices to establish or validate physical and chemical properties

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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Critical aspects of evidence

Demonstrates skills and knowledge to:

identify relevant textile processes and production procedures

identify physical and chemical properties of textile materials and the effects of textile processing on these properties

determine potential impact of textile processes and production procedures on textiles and associated materials

interpret impact of textile processes and production procedures on textiles and associated materials accurately

apply OHS practices in work operations

Consistency in performance

Consistently applies skills and knowledge when:

organising work

working systematically with attention to detail

identifying unacceptable deviations in production results

identifying improvements and avoiding damage

using workplace practices

using OHS practices

recording and reporting accidents and incidents

recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions

Resource implications

Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Context for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment

Interdependent assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.

Required Skills and Knowledge

This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit.

Demonstrates knowledge of:

textile industry terminology

physical properties of textiles and associated materials

chemical properties of textiles and associated materials

standard textile processing techniques

proofing techniques (eg water, flame)

standard textile test procedures

textile test equipment

international, Australian or workplace specification standards

quality practices

workplace practices

practices for recording and reporting

production processes

enterprise lines of authority

Demonstrates skills to:

read, interpret and follow specification information, standard operating procedures and work instructions, and other reference material

undertake textile tests

identify specification information

recognise, rectify and report deviations from specifications

maintain accurate records

communicate within the workplace

sequence operations

clarify and check task-related information

carry out work according to OHS practices

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. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts.

Legislative/regulatory requirements

All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements.

Textile materials may include

fibre ( natural and Man made )
