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:

plans and conducts intermediate unarmed self-defence programs in response to the needs and capabilities of participants, using safe and supportive teaching methods and strategies

monitors the progress of participants and makes adjustments in response to changing situations to improve skills development

applies effective contingency management techniques to deal with problems and issues that may arise during the program including motivation and participation levels and injuries to participants

evaluates and reflects on own performance to identify ways in which program outcomes and benefits to participants can be improved.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure candidate plans and conducts multiple intermediate unarmed self-defence sessions of sufficient duration to demonstrate techniques that build group cohesion and balance individual and group needs, and consistency of performance.

Assessment must also ensure access to:

a range of participants wishing to undertake an intermediate unarmed self-defence program

an environment or facility appropriate for the conduct of unarmed self-defence sessions

resources required for the delivery of the program including assistants and equipment

legislation and organisational policies and procedures relevant to the conduct of self-defence sessions.

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 candidate interacting with a range of participants, including conveying information about safe participation in programs, monitoring and evaluating programs

observation of candidate dealing with contingencies such as the changing availability of equipment or venues

oral or written questioning to assess candidate's knowledge of self-defence techniques and manoeuvres

portfolio containing evidence of intermediate self-defence program planning and modification

third-party reports from a supervisor detailing appropriate work performed by the candidate.

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