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!

TAEASS514 - Develop and implement plans for recognition of prior learning

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Determine candidate recognition needs

  1. Consult with individual candidate applying for recognition services and identify assessment needs and overview of candidate’s existing skills, knowledge and experience
  2. Explain nature and scope of the assessor-led RPL process, evidence requirements and assessor support to be provided, and confirm candidate understanding
  3. Inform candidate of expected roles of candidate, employer and assessors in collection of evidence for the RPL, and confirm understanding
  4. Discuss candidate’s suitability for an RPL option and confirm candidate decision to proceed
  5. Record decision regarding candidate suitability for recognition according to organisational procedures and VET regulatory requirements

Develop customised recognition plan

  1. Consult with candidate to identify evidence candidate can provide to meet requirements of nationally recognised training product/s
  2. Determine opportunities for clustering products, where evidence provided supports more than 1 training product
  3. Identify and interpret nationally recognised training products to be used as the basis for recognition and map to agreed evidence that candidate will provide
  4. Identify and document requirements of nationally recognised training product/s that can be met by available evidence and gaps in required evidence
  5. Document mapping adjustments required for alternative evidence and additional tasks for candidate to complete in order to meet evidence requirements of training products
  6. Discuss mapping outcomes and agree additional required evidence with candidate
  7. Determine requirements for reports from other parties, and the other evidence that must be supplied to validate those reports

Prepare RPL kit for applicant

  1. Set out options for collecting required evidence that meet the criteria of nationally recognised units of competency and assessment instruments and reflect candidate needs and skills, knowledge and experience
  2. Develop evidence guides and templates in consultation with assessors who undertake recognition assessments
  3. Document plain English exemplars and evidence checklists to support candidate in their application for recognition
  4. Identify and record required support for candidate and any employer/s
  5. Ensure that recognition tools are validated by peers and industry
  6. Finalise agreed, tailored and validated RPL assessment kit and seek required approval
  7. Provide advice to facilitate collection of evidence
  8. Confirm that required support for candidate and any employer/s is in place
  9. Monitor the evidence collection process to ensure that the rules of evidence are met and candidate privacy and confidentiality are maintained
