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!

MSFMB2003 - Cut mattress and base fabrics

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

Plan work operations

  1. Specification sizes are read and interpreted to identify required fabrics, number of items to be cut and required equipment
  2. Cutting requirements or other instructions are noted and required guides on the cutting table are identified
  3. Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
  4. Suitable work area is selected, tidied and cleaned of any contaminants
  5. Appropriate equipment and tools are selected for the fabrics and type of materials
  6. Scissors and any other cutting equipment appropriate for the fabric are selected and checked prior to use for sharpness, set operation and safe condition
