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!

MSFUP3004 - Lay out patterns and cut leather

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

Prepare for work

  1. Specifications, patterns and/or plans are read and interpreted to identify required colour and quality of materials, number of items to be cut and tools and equipment required
  2. Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
  3. Suitable work area is selected, prepared and cleaned of any contaminants
  4. Pattern pieces are identified to match shapes to final wear characteristics of the furnishing component
  5. Suitable scissors and/or blades are selected for the leather to be cut
  6. Scissors and any other tools and equipment are checked prior to use for appropriate sharpness, operation and safe condition
  7. Hide is selected, spread out and inspected to identify flaws and harder and softer wearing parts
  8. Direction of natural markings and finished side of the leather are identified
