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 is required to be collected that demonstrates a candidate’s competency in this unit. Evidence must be relevant to the roles within this sector’s work operations and satisfy all of the requirements of the performance criteria of this unit and include evidence that the candidate:

locates and applies relevant documentation, policies and procedures

demonstrates completion of conducting skip operations that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including:

completing start-up and shutdown procedures

applying dust suppression and extraction methods

loading skip with materials ensuring the load:

does not exceed capacity

is appropriate to minimise spills

completing skip operations

identifying, confirming location and nature of blockages

completing removal of blockages

isolating skip prior to maintenance

maintaining, servicing and cleaning skip equipment

The candidate must demonstrate knowledge in conducting skip operations through:

hand and power tools

winder systems and operations

shaft configuration and construction

shaft services and installations (pipes, cables, ladders etc)

identification of defects relevant to skip operations through inspection or observation

trip and fault procedures and abnormal conditions

site emergency procedures
