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.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Welds include the following:

fillet and butt in the horizontal, vertical and overhead positions

Materials include one (1) or more of the following:

low carbon steel, plate, pipe, tube and round bar

Fuel gases include one (1) or more of the following:

acetylene

liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)

hydrogen

Equipment includes the following:

cylinders

regulators

hoses

torches

tips

flash back arrestors

Consumables include the following:

appropriate fuel gas

filler rods

fluxes

Preparing materials includes one (1) or more of the following:

pre-heating

setting up of jigs, fixtures and clamps

joint preparation e.g. bevelling

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.
