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!

  1. Determine expected work requirements of mortuary including the calculation of anticipated volume of work, number of staff and workflow.
  2. Assess physical characteristics of the space in relation to its capacity to meet operational mortuary requirements.
  3. Evaluate safety and environmental issues that may impact on the organisation of space.
  4. Establish available budget and any constraints to mortuary design.
