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

Assessment must address the scope of this unit and reflect all components of the unit. Arange of appropriate assessment methods and evidence-gathering techniques must be used to determine competency. A judgement of competency should only be made when the assessor is confident that the required outcomes of the unit have been achieved and that consistent performance has been demonstrated.

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

Evidence of the ability to:

facilitate group-based learning by preparing and delivering a series of training sessions, including:

at least two consecutive sessions, of a duration commensurate with a substantive training session (e.g. 40-60 minutes), that follow one of the learning program designs

at least one session delivered to a different learner group, with evidence of how the characteristics and needs of this group were addressed

identify and respond to diversity and individual needs

access and use documented resources and support personnel to guide inclusive practices.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Evidence must be gathered in the workplace wherever possible. Where no workplace is available, a simulated workplace must be provided.

Assessment must ensure access to:

training products, such as training packages and accredited course documentation.

Method of assessment

Guidance information for assessment

For further information about assessment of this and other TAE units, refer to relevant implementation guidance published on the IBSA website (www.ibsa.org.au).

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Learning program documentation may include:

competencies or other benchmarks to be achieved

for each chunk or segment of the learning program:

overview of content to be covered

learning resources, learning materials and activities

delivery methods

number and duration of training sessions or classes required, and overall timelines

OHS issues to be addressed in delivery

identification of assessment points to measure learner progress

assessment methods and tools to be used to collect evidence of competency, where assessment is required.

Session plans may include:

outline of objectives and content to be addressed

plan of delivery methods and learning activities to be used within the session

timelines and duration for each learning activity

formative assessment points and opportunities

learning materials required.

Inappropriate behaviour may include:

violent or inappropriate language
