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

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

Evidence of the following is essential:

ability to organise and monitor infrastructure for an event in a location with minimal existing facilities and services

ability to manage the efficient, resource effective, environmentally protective and safe on-site operation of an event, including all aspects of preparation, set-up, operation and move-out

knowledge of the issues that specifically impact on the organisation of events in venues without infrastructure, including requirements of relevant authorities, Australian standards and OHS regulations

demonstration of skills through the organisation and monitoring of the infrastructure requirements for at least one event where the candidate plays a key management role.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

access to venues and sites that require infrastructure

access to all equipment required for the staging of a complex event

liaison with and involvement of suppliers and local authorities.

Methods 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 the infrastructure through attendance at an event managed by the candidate

review of documentation used to coordinate infrastructure prepared by the candidate

questioning of contractors to assess the organisational skills of the candidate

case studies to assess candidate's ability to determine infrastructure requirements for different events

questions to assess candidate's knowledge of infrastructure services and terminology

review of portfolios of evidence and third-party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.

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

SITXEVT012A Select event venues and sites.

Assessing employability skills

Employability skills are integral to effective performance in the workplace and are broadly consistent across industry sectors. How these skills are applied varies between occupations and qualifications due to the different work functions and contexts.

Employability skills embedded in this unit should be assessed holistically with other relevant units that make up the skill set or qualification and in the context of the job role.
