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!

MARN4001A - Manage seaworthiness of a vessel up to 80 metres

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

Supervise weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel

  1. Principal structural components of vessel are identified from vessel drawings to understand the function of these components in relation to conventional vessel design
  2. Pumping and pipeline systems of vessel are investigated to establish survivability of vessel in case of flooding and mage control
  3. Procedures for maintaining weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel are interpreted and implemented according to vessel safety management plan and regulations
  4. Crew are instructed on requirements of plan and their responsibilities
  5. Actions are instigated to confirm weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel at all times

Take action to meet changed sea and weather conditions

  1. Weather forecasts and observations of sea and weather conditions are used to predict situations that may jeopardise vessel weather tight and watertight integrity
  2. Effect of severe wind and rolling in associated sea conditions on vessel weather tight and watertight integrity is recognised
  3. Effect of water on deck on vessel weather tight and watertight integrity is ascertained
  4. Appropriate action is taken to maintain vessel weather tight and watertight integrity according to organisational procedures

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, the required skills and knowledge, the range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

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

The evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the Elements, Performance Criteria, Required Skills, Required Knowledge and include:

attention to appropriate level of detail in recordkeeping

attention to detail when completing documentation.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Performance is demonstrated consistently over time and in a suitable range of contexts.

Resources for assessment include access to:

industry-approved marine operations site where managing seaworthiness of a vessel up to 80 metres can be demonstrated

tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

relevant regulatory and equipment documentation that impacts on work activities

range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulated practical and knowledge assessments

appropriate range of relevant operational situations in the workplace.

In both real and simulated environments, access is required to:

relevant and appropriate materials and equipment

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.

Method of assessment

Practical assessment must occur in an:

appropriately simulated workplace environment and/or

appropriate range of situations in the workplace.

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate to this unit:

direct observation of the candidate managing seaworthiness of a vessel up to 80 metres

direct observation of the candidate applying relevant WHS/OHS requirements and work practices.

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.

In all cases where practical assessment is used it should be combined with targeted questioning to assess Required Knowledge.

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

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required Skills:

Appropriately use bilge and other pumping arrangements

Assess damage control measures

Complete required records

Maintain weather tight and watertight integrity of vessel

Read and interpret vessel specifications, drawings and operational manuals

Required Knowledge:

Bilge pumping arrangements

Different vessel types

Effects of adding and removing weights, water on deck, slack tanks, rolling period, stiff and tender vessel, additions or alterations to vessels

Principal parts of vessel and their various functions

Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and work 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.

Structural components must include:
