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!

(1) Critical Aspects and Evidence

It is essential that competence is observed in the following aspects:

compliance with Occupational Health and Safety regulations and State/Territory legislation

applicable to work place operations.

compliance with organisational policies and procedures including Quality Assurance requirements.

correct procedures carried out prior to and during the application of construction process.

safe and effective operational use of tools, plant and equipment, and effective communication.

(2) Pre-requisite Relationship of Units

This unit of competency is dependent upon acquiring the relevant pre-requisite competencies in basic industry and basic stream skills.

(3) Underpinning Knowledge and Skills

Knowledge

A knowledge of:

workplace and equipment safety requirements and relevant OH&S legislation

portable power tools

hand tools and equipment

materials

materials handling whilst operating tools

Quality Assurance

Skills

The ability to:

work safely to instructions

apply appropriate hand eye coordination in the use of tools

handle material during operation of tools

suitable work area appropriate to the construction process

appropriate OH&S resources

(5) Method of Assessment

Competency should be assessed through direct observation and questions related to underpinning knowledge.

Competency of this unit may be determined concurrently, based upon project work.
