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!

Overview of assessment
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	Evidence of the following is essential: implement the principles and variables of training that underlie exercise planning interrelate the components of an exercise plan for specific adaptations write exercise plans for a variety of training conditions modify existing exercise plans for clients.
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Assessment must ensure access to: a real or simulated work environment a fitness venue with the appropriate facilities and equipment for the context of delivery such as a weights gym exercise to music room pool community fitness environment an outdoor environment such as a running track clients able to give information regarding progress in their fitness program human resources consistent with those outlined in the Assessment Guidelines.
