Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Identify design requirements | 1.1 | Customer requirements relating to the artwork are determined |
| | 1.2 | Work area is cleaned and prepared to handle artwork in accordance with workplace standards |
| | 1.3 | Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work |
| | 1.4 | Workplace quality assurance requirements are recognised and adhered to throughout the work |
| | 1.5 | Tools, equipment and materials are selected and checked prior to use to ensure that they are appropriate for the work in terms of quality, serviceability and safety |
| | 1.6 | Artwork is handled in accordance with industry recognised handling methods and workplace procedures |
| | 1.7 | Artwork is assessed for colour qualities to identify primary, secondary, tertiary, harmonic and contrasting colours by colour wheel and the aesthetic/mood evoking nature |
| | 1.8 | Artwork is assessed against the elements and principles of design and their impact on preservation/restoration and framing selection determined |
2 | Develop frame design | 2.1 | Customer requirements for framing are identified and framing liabilities and obligations assessed |
| | 2.2 | Historical, sentimental or monetary value of artwork ascertained through examination, research and/or consultation with customer |
| | 2.3 | Artwork is assessed to identify any preservation/restoration work required and impact on frame design |
| | 2.4 | Compatibility of framing materials with the artwork is determined from manufacturer and industry information |
| | 2.5 | Principles of colour design are applied to select mat and framing materials to complement artwork |
| | 2.6 | Design package is developed for presentation and discussion with customer |

Assessors must:
hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
Access is required to historical information, manufacturer information, colour wheel and artwork requiring framing design.
