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!

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and demonstrate the ability to:

set up and operate equipment according to procedures

identify hazards and apply relevant hazard controls

monitor equipment operation and product quality

identify and take action on problems in accordance with procedures

cut polymer materials to correct size, shape or pattern

factors which may affect product quality or production output and appropriate remedies

directional properties of polymers as relevant to the job

different types of materials and their behaviour when cut

different cutting equipment and suitability for materials

controls of cutting equipment.

Range Statement
