Formats and tools
- Unit Description
- Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
- Assessment Tool
- an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
- Assessment Template
- generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
- Assessment Matrix
- a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
- Wiki Markup
- mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
- Evidence Guide
- create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
- Competency Mapping Template
- Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
- Observation Checklist
- create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)
- Self Assessment Survey
- A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
- Moodle Outcomes
- Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
- Registered Training Organisations
- Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver MTMCOR402C, 'Facilitate Quality Assurance process'.
- Google Links
- links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
- Books
- Reference books for 'Facilitate Quality Assurance process' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)
Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1. Facilitate the ongoing implementation of the QA program in the workplace | 1.1. Regulatory basis for compliance with the company's HACCP-based QA program is identified. 1.2. Nature and importance of work instructions and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) is identified and workers are coached in their implications. 1.3. Work instructions and SOPs are written so that they comprehensively document the details required for competent performance. 1.4. Work instructions and SOPs are reviewed for accuracy. 1.5. Implementation of work instructions and operating procedures is monitored. |
2. Monitor inspection and test records | 2.1. Control and critical control points in the HACCP program are identified. 2.2. Procedures for monitoring products and processes are identified and implemented, where appropriate. 2.3. Critical limits and the causes for product or process not conforming are identified. 2.4. Inspection and test records are monitored to verify product quality and to identify performance trends. 2.5. Descriptions of proposals to introduce improved processes or procedures are contained in status reports. |
3. Respond to non-conforming product or processes | 3.1. Procedures for taking corrective action are identified. 3.2. Corrective and preventative measures are implemented to prevent recurrence. 3.3. Procedures are devised or revised to support control measures. 3.4. Processes or conditions which could result in a breach of meat safety procedures are identified and corrective action is taken. 3.5. Process changes are introduced and controlled so that QA requirements are accomplished. |
4. Review product samples and test results | 4.1. Product sampling procedures are identified. 4.2. Post-collection procedures are identified according to SOPs. 4.3. Test results are reviewed and responded to in accordance with workplace requirements. |
5. Calculate yield, wastage and productivity indicators | 5.1. Yield, wastage and productivity measures are calculated to determine performance outcomes. 5.2. Yield, wastage and productivity measures are compared with targets to determine variation of actual from planned performance. |
6. Calculate calibration adjustments | 6.1. Mathematical concepts associated with equipment calibration are used to determine adjustment to settings. 6.2. Calibration calculation is verified by checking the accuracy of the adjustment in the actual work performance. |
