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!

PPMRES340 - Troubleshoot and rectify primary resource operations

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

Identify and diagnose causes of process variation, plant or equipment faults

  1. Check and plan work within workplace health and safety (WHS) procedures, risks and hazards identification, environmental sustainability procedures and Standard Operating Procedures (SOP).
  2. Interpret visual assessments and machine alarms to determine fault type and location.
  3. Undertake routine physical inspections of plant and process to identify faults.
  4. Identify and locate causes and sources of process variation, plant or equipmentfaults, using appropriate techniques.
  5. Access and analyse relevant historical and operational data to confirm diagnosis.
