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 dismantle, inspect, maintain and assemble aircraft piston engine components or parts 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 engine components. It is essential that the relevant standard 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 enterprise procedures is essential. This may be demonstrated through application across a number of different engine 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 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 maintenance and repair requirements for the range of engine components listed in the Range Statement

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

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

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

remove, install and maintain components, such as hoses, pipes and ducts, and so on

dismantle and maintain engine assemblies and sub-assemblies

apply relevant hand skills to repair or modify components of sub-assemblies and systems listed in the Range Statement

relevant OHS practices

how to obtain MSDS

use of PPE

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.

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 or procedure)

Outcomes are achieved by:

Outcomes are achieved by applying known solutions chosen from a limited range of pre-determined options consistent with standard 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 will be within the scope of the unit of competency MEA109B Perform basic hand skills, standard trade practices and fundamentals in aviation maintenance

Maintain

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

Components to be maintained

Components to be maintained include hoses, pipes, ducts and components of:

cooling systems

engine head assemblies

engine block assemblies

accessory drives

lubrication systems

Work can relate to:

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