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, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

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

Evidence of the following is essential:

effectively interpreting the brief to client’s or commissioning organisational specifications

developing and refining hair design briefs for a hairdressing industry specific purpose

effective collaboration and communication skills to work with others to develop and refine the hair design brief

understanding the design process within the hairdressing industry context or design discipline.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure that competency is:

consistently demonstrated over a period of time and observed by the assessor or the technical expert working in partnership with the assessor as described in the Assessment Guidelines

demonstrated in a range of work situations which includes involvement in other related activities relevant to this environment.

Assessment must ensure access to:

appropriate equipment and media to communicate and present ideas and concepts

sources of information relevant to the industry context

interaction with and involvement of others to reflect the collaborative nature of the work, and the communication and negotiation skills required.

For further guidance on the use of an appropriate simulated environment, refer to the Assessment Guidelines in this Training Package.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

evaluation of reports detailing the processes undertaken for establishing and refining the design brief, including challenges faced and lessons learned for the future

observation of discussions and negotiations with client and other stakeholders

written or verbal questioning to assess knowledge of the process and issues surrounding legislation, industry context, sources of information

evaluation of candidate response to different scenarios to assess ability to adapt approach to different client requirements and contexts.
