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:
|
Environmental implications of the planned programs are identified and if necessary, reported to relevant personnel for further research. Completed |
Evidence:
|
A concept plan that reflects client preferences and requirements, takes into account site factors and any identified environmental requirements, is developed and presented to the client for discussion and approval. Completed |
Evidence:
|
Determine requirements of the plant establishment program
|
|
Plant species and cultivars that are appropriate to the site and consistent with the agreed concept plan are identified, and the required quantity calculated, costed, and availability confirmed with suppliers. Completed |

|
OHS hazards associated with the plant establishment program are identified, risks assessed and controls developed according to enterprise guidelines, costed and documented in the plan. Completed |
Evidence:
|
Staged implementation and development are outlined, where appropriate, with access for future works provided for according to client, enterprise and site requirements. Completed |
Evidence:
|
Timelines for preparations, planting and post-planting care are determined taking into account the needs of the plant species and cultivars, site conditions, and any other planning requirements. Completed |
Evidence:
|
Prepare and document the plant establishment program and specifications
|
|
Detailed plan, specifications and quotation are prepared based on the requirements of the plant establishment program, and presented to appropriate personnel and the client for acceptance. Completed |
Evidence:
|
Scaled site plan is produced which can be readily interpreted and understood by on-site personnel according to enterprise standards. Completed |
Evidence:
|
