The evidence guide describes the underpinning knowledge and skills that must be demonstrated to prove competence. It is essential for assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, the range statement and the assessment guidelines of the relevant Training Package. |
|
Overview of assessment A person who demonstrates competency in this unit of competency must be able to work in a team, seeking direction from a senior operator to apply temporary hair colour and remove residual hair colour products within designated workplace timeframes, whilst ensuring client and operator comfort and safety. |

Specific evidence requirements |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | consistently seeking and following direction from a senior operator with regard to application and removal of colour consistently implementing workplace procedures that ensure comfort and safety of client and operator consistently interacting appropriately with clients and senior operator consistently undertaking temporary colour application within designated timeframes consistently observing client and operator safety precautions. |
|
Context of assessment | For valid and reliable assessment of this unit, competency should be consistently demonstrated over a period of time and observed by the assessor and/or the technical expert working in partnership with the assessor. The technical expert may include the hairdresser and/or an experienced person at the workplace. Competency should be demonstrated in the workplace or a simulated workplace environment in a range of situations which may include client interruptions and involvement in other related activities normally expected in the workplace. For further guidance on the use of an appropriate simulated environment, refer to the Assessment Guidelines in this Training Package. |
| |
Specific resources for assessment | Competency for this unit should be assessed through access to: a salon or simulated salon environment temporary hair colouring products or simulated products, tools and equipment clients or simulated clients with a variety of requirements. |
| |
Relationship to other units | In the context of an assessment-only and/or a training delivery and assessment pathway, all units that relate to a job function may be integrated for assessment purposes. : none. : WRHCS201A Prepare clients for salon services WRHWP201A Assist colleagues providing multiple salon services as a team member. |

Evidence required for demonstration of consistent performance | For valid and reliable assessment of this unit, evidence should be gathered through a range of methods to indicate consistent performance. It can be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone, through an integrated assessment activity or through a combination of both. Evidence should be gathered as part of the learning process. |
