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.

Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Complete certification requirements | 1.1 | Certification requirements for particular rolling stock are confirmed by reference to applicable specifications |
1.2 | Planned activities are identified in accordance with organisational procedures |
1.3 | Hazards are identified, risks are assessed and control measures are implemented |
1.4 | Completed maintenance activities are verified against planned activities |
1.5 | Completed maintenance activities are validated as required in accordance with organisational procedures |
1.6 | Where maintenance activities are not completed an assessment is carried out to confirm rolling stock is fit for purpose in accordance with organisational procedures |
1.7 | Completed maintenance activities are confirmed against operational performance requirements |
1.8 | Certificate is issued in accordance with organisational procedures |
2 | Complete documentation | 2.1 | Required documentation procedures and processes are confirmed |
2.2 | Documentation is filled in legibly and proofread, in accordance with organisational procedures and regulatory requirements |
2.3 | Required documentation is archived in accordance with organisational procedures and regulatory requirements |

applying relevant workplace procedures identifying job hazards and taking required action to minimise, control or eliminate identified hazards reading and interpreting relevant procedures and standards. |
Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of: |
applicable specifications for the type of rolling stock being certified organisational requirements for certifying rolling stock relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) and environmental procedures and relevant regulations requirements for completing relevant documentation when certifying rolling stock prior to handover requirements of organisational maintenance systems, procedures, rail industry standards, codes of practice and schedules. |
As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.
As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.
Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations or, where this is not available, in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate rail corridor workplace conditions.
Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
Resources for assessment include:
a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations
relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry
applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, rail industry standards, codes of practice and operation manuals.
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.
