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!

SFIDIV306 - Perform underwater work in the aquaculture sector

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

Enter and leave the water

  1. Consult crew and consider prevailing weather and water conditions when assessing the safety of diving operations, and make a judgement on whether to continue the dive
  2. Ensure that procedures during the dive, and when entering or leaving the water from the dive platform meet guidelines and are according to normal dive practices
  3. Use signals to the dive platform before descent and following ascent according to normal dive practices

Assist in lifting and handling

  1. Recognise the limitations and suitability of winches with hydraulic and air motors for use on the surface and underwater when undertaking winching operations
  2. Use correct signs and signals during winch operations to communicate effectively with crew
  3. Select and rig lifting equipment and ropes of the correct type and safe working load using the correct mechanical advantage for the load being lifted
  4. Use and secure lifting bags to raise loads
  5. Restrain the load so that ascent is controlled
  6. Inspect and maintain slings, ropes and lifting bags and carry out pre- and post-dive checks on lifting devices
