Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Overview of assessment | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | It is essential that competence in this unit signifies ability to transfer competence to changing circumstances and to respond to unusual circumstances in the critical aspects of: observing safety procedures and requirements communicating effectively with others involved in or affected by the work selecting methods and techniques appropriate to the circumstances completing preparatory activity in a systematic manner analysing faults in complex systems, identifying the cause(s) of faults and establishing repair requirements within an established timeframe for faults incorporating at least three of the following single systems: mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical/electronic. |
Context of, and specific resources for assessment | Application of competence is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated worksite. Assessment is to occur using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints. Assessment is to comply with regulatory requirements, including Australian Standards. The following resources should be made available: workplace location or simulated workplace materials relevant to the diagnosis of complex system faults equipment, hand and power tooling appropriate to the diagnosis of complex system faults activities covering the mandatory task requirements specifications and work instructions. |
Method of assessment | Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the automotive industry's RS&R Training Package. Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance together with application of underpinning knowledge. Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks, with questioning on underpinning knowledge and it must also reinforce the integration of key competencies. Assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process. Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competence is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances. It is preferable assessment reflects a process rather than an event and occurs over a period of time to cover the varying quality circumstances. Evidence of performance may be provided by customers, team leaders/members or other appropriate persons subject to agreed authentication arrangements. Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Required skills |
apply research and interpretive skills sufficient to locate, interpret and apply manufacturer/component supplier procedures, workplace policies and procedures apply analytical skills required for identification and analysis of technical information apply plain English literacy and communication skills in relation to dealing with customers and team members apply questioning and active listening skills for example when obtaining information from customers apply oral communication skills sufficient to convey information and concepts to customers apply planning and organising skills to own work activities, including making good use of time and resources, sorting out priorities and monitoring own performance interact effectively with other persons both on a one-to-one basis and in groups, including understanding and responding to the needs of a customer and working effectively as a member of a team to achieve a shared goal the capacity to apply problem-solving strategies in purposeful ways, both in situations where the problem and desired solution are clearly evident and in situations requiring critical thinking and a creative approach to achieve an outcome use mathematical ideas and techniques to calculate time, assess tolerances, apply accurate measurements, calculate material requirements and establish quality checks use workplace technology related to the diagnosis of complex system faults, including the use of measuring equipment, computerised technology and electronics, communication devices and reporting/documenting of results |
Required knowledge |
A working knowledge of: OH&S regulations/requirements, equipment, material and personal safety requirements function and operation of the appropriate complex automotive systems symptom and cause differentiation diagnostic procedures and problem-solving techniques test procedures and test instrument application documenting and reporting procedures repair procedures enterprise quality procedures work organisation and planning processes |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. | |
Complex systems | A complex system is defined as one which integrates two or more automotive systems, or incorporates three or more of mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical or electronic media. Examples include hydraulically/ electronically controlled automatic transmissions, anti-lock braking systems, engine management systems integrating ignition, fuel and transmission control systems. Workplace example: Customer reports intermittent shifting into top gear on an electronically controlled automatic transmission. The customer is asked a number of questions about the conditions in which the problem occurs (e.g. frequency of the problem, speed, road conditions). A road test is conducted, and the technician detects intermittent speedometer operation. After testing of electrical connections, components and sensors, the intermittent speedometer operation is confirmed to be the problem. Repair requirements are determined to be securing the connections on the speedometer wiring. |
Diagnostic methods | Diagnostic methods are to include: questioning of customer road testing hydraulic testing (e.g. performance testing of power steering systems) electrical testing (e.g. performance testing of engine starting systems) electronic testing (e.g. electronic interface diagnostic equipment) mechanical testing (e.g. compression testing on engines) chemical testing (e.g. testing of cooling systems) technical/service manuals component/equipment service history body measurements |

Materials | Materials may include cleaning materials. |
Communications | Communications are to include, but are not limited to verbal and visual instructions and fault reporting and may include site specific instructions, written instructions, plans or instructions related to job/task, telephones and pagers |
Information/documents | Sources of information/documents may include: verbal or written and graphical instructions, signage, work schedules/plans/specifications, work bulletins, memos, material safety data sheets, diagrams or sketches safe work procedures related to diagnosis of complex system faults regulatory/legislative requirements pertaining to the automotive industry, including Australian design rules engineer's design specifications and instructions organisation work specifications and requirements instructions issued by authorised enterprise or external persons Australian standards |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts.
