Evidence Required

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

Evidence of the following is essential

produce singlefaced web for corrugated board manufacture inspect the quality maintain production identify and rectify problems and correctly shut down machine

perform at least TWO runs on the single facer to produce TWO different typesclasses of product according to manufacturers and job specifications enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria

evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure

assessment may take place on the job off the job or a combination of these Assessment off the job must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

inline corrugating equipment

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge The following examples are appropriate for this unit

direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of onthejob performance by the candidate

Guidance information for assessment

Range Statement

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.

Machines may include:

range of corrugating machines with manual, semi-automated and fully automated process control systems.

Substrate handling may include:

wide reel handling systems.

In-line processes may include:

range of wax and coating systems operations, slitters and cutters. Note that slitting and cutting may be separately assessable as flat-bed or rotary cutting.

Substrate types may include:

range of substrates within the major categories of board or paper.
