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!

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

applying relevant workplace procedures

completing documentation related to basic track measurement

identifying job hazards and required action to minimise, control or eliminate identified hazards

implementing contingency plans

interpreting and following operational instructions

modifying activities depending on operational contingencies, risk situations and environments

reading and interpreting relevant instructions, procedures, information, technical data, standards and drawings

reporting and/or rectifying identified problems, faults or malfunctions promptly, in accordance with regulatory requirements and workplace procedures

selecting equipment used for basic track measurement

working systematically with required attention to detail without injury to self or others, or damage to goods or equipment.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

authorisation/approval processes and procedures

fundamentals of track layout and geometry

fundamentals of track structures

hazards that may exist when measuring track and ways of controlling the risks involved

problems that may occur when measuring track and action that can be taken to report or resolve these problems

relevant safeworking systems and procedures

relevant rail danger zones

relevant safety, work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) and environmental procedures and regulations

tools and equipment used in track construction and repair

track components including rails, rail connectors, sleepers, ballast, points, and crossings (and substitute devices, as required)

workplace procedures for measuring track.

Range Statement

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.
