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 knowledge and skills, the range statement and the assessment guidelines for this Training Package.

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

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria of this unit and include demonstration of applying:

the required knowledge and skills

relevant legislation and workplace procedures

other relevant aspects of the range statement

Assessment must include exercises which demonstrate competent performance of the following in a range of situations:

identify correct procedure for testing braking system

correctly conduct brake test

operate brake when driving on-track vehicle

identify possible brake faults that may occur

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Performance is demonstrated consistently over a period of time and in a suitable range of contexts

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulated practical and knowledge assessment, and/or

access to an appropriate range of relevant operational situations in the workplace

In both real and simulated environments, access is required to:

relevant and appropriate materials and equipment, and

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals

Method of assessment

As a minimum, assessment of knowledge must be conducted through appropriate written/oral tests

Practical assessment must occur on a track maintenance vehicle:

through activities in an appropriately simulated environment, and/or

in an appropriate range of situations in the workplace

Required Skills and Knowledge

This section describes the knowledge and skills required for this unit.

Required knowledge:

Appropriate sections of legislated rail safety requirements including acts and regulations from each applicable state and territory together with any nationally approved compliance codes and/or guidelines

Brake systems, their components and their operation

Relevant occupational health and safety (OH&S) and environmental procedures and regulations

Tools and equipment applications

Types of brake tests and their purpose

Required skills:

Apply precautions and required action to minimise, control or eliminate hazards that may exist during work activities

Assess brake system defects

Interpret and follow operational instructions and prioritise work

Modify activities depending on operational contingencies, risk situations and environments

Operate and adapt to differences in brakes and related equipment in accordance with standard operating procedures

Read and interpret instructions, procedures, information and signs relevant to operating a train braking system

Report any identified problems, faults or malfunctions when operating a train braking system in accordance with regulatory requirements and workplace procedures

Select and use required personal protective equipment conforming to industry and OH&S standards
