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:

utilises knowledge and interpretation of intermediate skills and tactics of canoeing and relevant rules, regulations and policies to perform these skills and tactics relevant to the canoeing discipline

determines observable body movements for each stage of the intermediate skills and tactics of the relevant canoeing discipline and links together and practices these during drills, activities, games and competitions

communicates appropriately with team members, coach and referees throughout drills, activities, games and competitions, and responds to feedback

reviews own and team's canoeing performance to identify strengths and areas requiring improvement and or modifications.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure performance of intermediate skills and tactics relevant to canoeing requirements and conditions on sufficient occasions to demonstrate competency and consistency of performance.

Assessment must also ensure access to:

canoeing training and competition facilities and a suitable body of water

groups or teams of canoeists to participate in intermediate flat water canoeing, white water canoeing or canoe polo

support personnel such as coaches and referees

equipment such as canoes or kayaks, paddles, and safety equipment

resources and information outlining the intermediate skills and tactics of flat, white water canoeing or canoe polo

rules, regulations and policies, legislation and organisational policies and procedures that impact on the conduct of drills, activities, games and competitions.

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 performance of intermediate skills and tactics during drills, activities, games and competitions

oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of the relevant biomechanical principles

third-party reports from coaches or referees detailing performance.

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

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

communication skills to:

discuss and clarify canoeing rules, regulations and policies,

determine other participant's intentions and movements

follow instructions and directions

Required knowledge

legislation and organisational policies and procedures to enable safe participation in all activities

rules, regulations and policies of flat water canoeing, white water canoeing or canoe polo

biomechanics related to acquisition of intermediate canoeing skills and tactics
