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!

  3. Identify key information and relationships between complex linguistic and non-linguistic elements and analyse factors affecting meaning.
  4. Identify complexities, key concepts and explicit and embedded cultural concepts.
  5. Apply detailed knowledge of specialised subject and context to anticipate purpose and intent of source and strategies used to develop ideas.
