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

Required Skills and Knowledge

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least two separate occasions and include:

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including:

workplace procedures and practices

using of risk control measures

developing and testing structured programming instructions for microcontroller device

dealing with unplanned events/situations in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment

developing testing procedures/protocols

identifying problems and bugs/faults in program

rectifying problems and bugs/faults in program in accordance with workplace procedures

using all key features of an appropriate assembler language

writing and presenting work reports to relevant industry standards and protocols.

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

fundamental structured programming instructions for microcontroller device

memory organisation, operation and addressing methods

microcontroller architecture

microcontroller control system programming methods

microcontroller devices testing protocols
