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!

NWPHYD018 - Plan water resource management

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

Review and plan hydrometric data management processes

  1. Design and review hydrographic network and water resource management objectives in consultation with senior management.
  2. Review and analyse the data required to support the hydrographic planning and water resource management processes within the organisation.
  3. Review hydrographic network data management processes to collect, analyse, store and report hydrographic data to ensure they support the organisation’s short-, medium- and long-term planning needs.
  4. Identify, plan and report resource requirements to meet the hydrographic data management needs.
  5. Identify, plan, manage and report resource requirements to meet hydrographic network data management needs.
  6. Identify future and extended uses of data and monitoring networks as part of the planning process and to ensure the most effective use of data and network.
