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:

anticipating problems, faults and malfunctions, in accordance with regulatory requirements and workplace procedures

applying relevant workplace procedures

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

working systematically with required attention to detail without injury to self or others, or damage to equipment in accordance with organisational procedures.

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:

ballast profile rail industry standards

functions of ballast

hazards that may exist when using a ballast regulator and ways of controlling the risks involved

problems that may occur when using a ballast regulator and action that can be taken to resolve and report these problems

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

workplace procedures for carrying out track ballasting using a ballast regulator.

Range Statement

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

Non-essential conditions can be found in the Companion Volume Implementation Guide.
