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:

conducts regular monitoring of use and condition of aquatic facility plant and equipment and identifies potential problems and faults

responds to plant and equipment failures and faults and repairs within designated responsibility or makes arrangements for qualified contractors to carry out repairs as required

records details of failed or unsafe plant or equipment and corrective actions taken.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

implementation and review of aquatic facility and equipment maintenance program on multiple occasions to demonstrate competency and consistency of performance

access to an aquatic facility plant and equipment

access to resources to maintain facility and equipment and to keep records

access to qualified contractors

access to public health regulatory requirements, relevant legislation, and organisational policies and procedures.

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:

observation of the candidate assessing failed or unsafe facility plant and equipment

oral or written questioning to assess candidate's knowledge of procedures and processes for plant and equipment operation and maintenance

portfolio of written records detailing unsafe or failed plant and equipment and corrective action taken

third-party reports from a supervisor detailing candidate's performance on the job.

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:

SISCAQU303A Operate aquatic facility plant and equipment
