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 maintain, repair and modify aircraft basic hydraulic and pneumatic components under qualified person guidance while observing all relevant safety precautions.

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

The underlying skills inherent in this unit should be transferable across a range of maintenance and repair applications associated with aircraft components. It is essential that the relevant enterprise procedures are interpreted and applied to ensure quality and safety standards are achieved.

Evidence of transferability of skills and knowledge related to maintenance/repair standard operating procedures is essential. This may be demonstrated through application across a number of different aircraft components. Ability to assess component serviceability under qualified person guidance and interpret parts requirements will be necessary 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 qualified person guidance on a representative range of components or parts from each of Groups 1 to 4, as 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 or simulated work environment, using tools and equipment specified in maintenance documentation. It is also expected that general and special purpose tools found in most routine situations would be used where appropriate.

Method of assessment

Guidance information for assessment

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

applying relevant OHS procedures

using relevant maintenance documentation, specifications and aircraft/component manuals to:

recognise state of serviceability and standard/routine repair requirements for the range of hydraulic and pneumatic components listed in the Range Statement

identify requirements under the guidance of a qualified person and complete routine repairs and/or modifications

adjust components under expert guidance, as required

where post-assembly testing is applicable, set up components for testing and have a basic understanding of the test procedures

correctly tag, seal and package completed components

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

component operation at a basic level

standard/routine repair procedures and processes

relevant OHS practices

how to obtain MSDS

use of PPE

For the purpose of this unit of competency, basic knowledge is defined as the level of knowledge required to:

understand the instructions provided by qualified persons and relevant documentation for the disassembly, routine replacement of component parts and seals and reassembly of components

under guidance and in the training environment make post-assembly adjustments such as length of stroke or operating pressure

under guidance and in the training environment perform simple tests involving pressure and function

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.

Note

The Range Statements below are numbered to facilitate specification of the assessment requirements included in the Evidence Guide

Components to be maintained and/or repaired/modified

Components to be maintained and/or repaired/modified may include:

1. Hoses

2. Pipes

3. Simple check or shutoff valves

4. Basic hydraulic and pneumatic actuators and valves

Routine work

Routine work is carried out using basic operational knowledge and a defined range of skills ('routine' work is that which follows a customary or regular course of procedure)

Work outcomes

All work outcomes are achieved by applying known solutions chosen from a limited range of pre-determined options consistent with enterprise procedures. This includes accepting responsibility for own work in terms of quality of outcomes using pre-determined specifications of quality

Scope of work

Note that the scope of any repair or modification and the procedure to be followed will be provided by the qualified person, and be within the scope of the skills and knowledge included in the unit of competency MEA109B Perform basic hand skills, standard trade practices and fundamentals in aviation maintenance

Maintain

Maintain involves cleaning, inspection for wear or damage and consequent replacement of parts, and routine adjustment and lubrication where applicable in accordance with enterprise procedures

Work can relate to:

routine scheduled or unscheduled maintenance activities performed under qualified person guidance in accordance with enterprise procedures

tasks performed either autonomously or as part of a team and under the guidance of a qualified person

Procedures and requirements

Refer to procedures specified by manufacturers, regulatory authorities or the enterprise
