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!

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessment must confirm the ability to:

conduct overall size-up operations of an aviation accident and incident

control firefighting tactics and strategies

appropriately select and use aviation firefighting equipment, firefighting agents and protective equipment under response conditions

implement action plans in accordance with standard operating procedures and regulatory requirements

Consistency in performance

Competency should be demonstrated in a range of actual or simulated aviation incidents.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Context of assessment

Competency should be assessed on-the-job and in a range of simulated aviation fires and incidents.

Specific resources for assessment

Access is required to:

specialised aviation firefighting equipment and mediums

appropriate protective clothing and equipment

aircraft or simulator

agency regulations

Method of assessment

In a public safety environment assessment is usually conducted via direct observation in a training environment or in the workplace via subject matter supervision and/or mentoring, which is typically recorded in a competency workbook.
