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!

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

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to remove and install the components of aircraft basic communication and navigation systems while observing all relevant safety and component handling precautions.

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

It is essential that cleanliness requirements and safety precautions applicable to the system being maintained are fully observed, understood and complied with, as well as work practices associated with electrostatic sensitive devices.

Evidence of transferability of skills and knowledge related to removal and installation is essential. This is to be demonstrated by application across a range of radio communication and navigation system components as listed in the Range Statement.

An understanding of the attachment methods, connection of hardware, and the need for adjustment or calibration and system operation as they relate to the work must be demonstrated before undertaking any action. The work plan should take account of applicable safety and quality requirements in accordance with the industry and regulatory standards.

A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the Unit of Competency are being achieved under routine supervision on at least one item from each of Groups 1 to 3 listed in the Range Statement. This shall be established via the records in the Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement or, where appropriate, an equivalent Industry Evidence Guide.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency should be assessed in the work environment, using tools and equipment specified in maintenance manuals. It is also expected that general-purpose tools, test and ground support equipment found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate.

Method of assessment

Guidance information for assessment

Individuals being assessed who have already attained MEA207C Remove and install aircraft electronic system components, will have covered a significant amount of the skill and knowledge requirements for this unit plus part of the Performance Criteria for Elements 1 and 2 and associated Range Statement items. Those who have attained MEA276A Maintain basic light aircraft communication and radio navigation systems and components, or MEA289A Maintain basic light aircraft avionic systems and components, will have fully covered the requirements for this unit in common Range Statement variables. Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement records relating to MEA207C Remove and install aircraft electronic system components, MEA276A Maintain basic light aircraft communication and radio navigation systems and components and MEA289A Maintain basic light aircraft avionic systems and components, may be accepted as also meeting the evidence requirements for this unit in the applicable areas.

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

locating and identifying radio communication and navigation system components comprising:

HF and VHF communications

VOR and ADF navigation systems

ELT systems

locating and identifying applicable radio system antennas

removing and installing communication and navigation system components, including antennas

applying relevant OHS practices

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

component attachment methods

connection of hardware, and plugs
