Overview of assessment | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | It is essential that competence is fully observed and there is ability to transfer competence to changing circumstances and to respond to unusual situations in the critical aspects of: identifying customer requirements professionally, courteously, with tact and without presumptions generating and advising customer of viable options to meet customer needs calculating and informing customer of detailed costs and timeframes of agreed option proposing and gaining agreement by customer to an action plan to satisfy customer needs. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | This unit may be assessed in conjunction with other units that form part of the job role or function. Elements of competence contain both knowledge and practical components. Knowledge components may be assessed off the job. Practical components should be assessed on the job or in a simulated work environment. Evidence is best gathered using the products, processes and procedures of the individual workplace as the means by which the candidate achieves industry competencies. The following should be made available: a workplace or simulated workplace documentation, such as enterprise policy and procedure manuals relating to customer service, enterprise telephone directory, legislation and codes of practice a range of customers with different complex requirements (real or simulated) a communication system or a range of communication equipment real or simulated customer documents or database a qualified workplace assessor. |
Method of assessment | It is preferable that assessment reflects a process rather than an event and occurs over a period of time to cover the varying circumstances. Evidence of performance may be provided by customers, team leaders/members or other persons subject to agreed authentication arrangements. |
