Employability Skills
This unit contains employability skills.
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. | |
Critical aspects of evidence | Interpret work order and determine test requirements Apply safety requirements throughout the work sequence, including the use of personal protective clothing and equipment Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to arrange/conduct a minimum of four different processes covering sampling, inspection and testing Analyse test results and interpret outcomes against requirements Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment Work effectively with others |
Resource implications | Production or product finishing facility, testing equipment and procedures. |
Method of assessment | Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts. Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and/or samples of work and questioning on underpinning knowledge. Assessment should be conducted over time and will generally be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency. |
Context of assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in a simulated workplace facility with relevant equipment, simulated work instructions and deadlines. |
Submission Requirements
List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

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 |
collect, organise and understand information related to quality checking processes, including the relevant technical, regulatory, environmental and safety requirements communicate ideas and information to enable clarification of the requirements, coordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of outcomes and findings plan and organise activities, including the obtaining of equipment, systems and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements and calculations required in quality checking processes and estimation of material requirements create and apply systematic problem solving techniques to anticipate problems, avoid re-working and avoid wastage use the workplace technology related to quality checking, including machinery, tools and equipment, calculators and measuring devices and computing/computer-aided systems |
Required knowledge |
general quality systems theory sampling techniques for commonly encountered materials inspection techniques and faults common within the sector products testing techniques (destructive and non-destructive) relevant to the sector and related equipments/aids workflow in relation to required times and stages where quality checking is required |
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. | |
Unit scope | This unit covers the work involved in collecting samples and their inspections and testing to check product quality Extent of sampling and the nature of inspection and testing will be undertaken in accordance with industry standards and practices and will reflect the type of product, the materials and processes used in its manufacture and its end use. It may include: samples of raw materials components, assemblies end products Materials to be sampled will represent those normally used by the enterprise in its production processes. They may include but are not limited to: timber metal alloys glass, fabrics and textiles plastics leather adhesives fillers and finishes as appropriate |
Unit context | OHS requirements include legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods codes and safe operating procedures Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, authorised handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements Work requires individuals to demonstrate organisational and analytical ability, discretion, judgement and problem solving skills |
Workplace environment | Sampling, inspecting, testing and reporting of findings is undertaken in accordance with established enterprise procedures and practices Work is generally performed with little external assistance and with minimal supervision or direction Customers or suppliers of material to be sampled may be internal or external |
Personal protective equipment | Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices |
Information and procedures | Work procedures/instructions Designer/drawer specifications and instructions Quality systems documentation or equivalent containing sampling, inspecting and testing frequency and criteria Organisation work specifications and requirements Legislation/regulation/national and industry codes and practices relevant to the products Quality and Australian standards and procedures |
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. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
