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:

observe and inspect service environment to identify:

type of corrosion present

likely causes of corrosion

vulnerability to corrosion

identify hazards and apply relevant hazard controls

read and interpret product specifications, job sheets, procedures, material labels and safety information

analyse proposed treatment for appropriateness

complete workplace forms/reports

communicate effectively with team/work group, supervisors and other personnel

apply operational knowledge to non-routine problems.

Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:

duty of care obligations

relevant organisational procedures

physics and chemistry relevant to corrosion in metals and non-metals

relevant coating/lining types and application methods

hazards that may arise in the job/work environment, including:

their possible causes

potential consequences

appropriate risk controls

costs and hazards of corrosion

impacts of preparation and coating variables, including:

blast media type/size/shape

temperature during/after application

pressure of spray

pH

non-routine problems that may arise, the range of possible causes and processes to develop solutions

major preparation and protection methods, their typical applications and how to troubleshoot problems.

Range Statement

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Regulatory framework

The latest version of all legislation, regulations, industry codes of practice and Australian/international standards, or the version specified by the local regulatory authority, must be used, and include one or more of the following:

legislative requirements, including work health and safety (WHS)

industry codes of practice and guidelines

environmental regulations and guidelines

Australian and other standards

licence and certification requirements

All operations to which this unit applies are subject to stringent health, safety and environment (HSE) requirements, which may be imposed through state/territory or Federal legislation, and these must not be compromised at any time. Where there is an apparent conflict between performance criteria and HSE requirements, the HSE requirements take precedence.

Procedures

All operations must be performed in accordance with relevant procedures.

Procedures are written, verbal, visual, computer-based or in some other form, and include one or more of the following:

emergency procedures

work instructions

standard operating procedures (SOPs)

safe work method statements (SWMS)

temporary instructions

any similar instructions provided for the smooth running of the plant

Hazards

Hazards include one or more of the following:

heat, smoke, dust or other atmospheric hazards

structural hazards
