Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The Evidence Guide identifies the critical aspects, knowledge and skills to be demonstrated to confirm competence for this unit. This is an integral part of the assessment of competence and should be read in conjunction with the Range Statements

Critical aspects of evidence to be considered

Assessment must confirm sufficient knowledge of the factors influencing the planning of a recreation program for participants using a particular facility or location

Assessment of performance should be over a period of time covering all relevant categories within the Range Statements that are applicable in the learners work environment

In particular, assessment must confirm the ability to plan a program of individual sessions to suit

Different participant needs

different program aims

a minimum of three different types of participant groups

different program contexts from the range of variables statements

Interdependent assessment of units

This unit must be assessed after attainment of competency in the following unit(s)

SRXCAI003B Provide equipment for activities

SRXCAI004B Plan a session or program for participants

SRXCAI005B Conduct a sport and recreation session for participants

BSBCMN402A Develop work priorities

SRXRIK001A Undertake risk analysis of activities

This unit must be assessed in conjunction with the following unit(s)

activity-specific competencies in the area of fitness, community recreation, sport or outdoor recreation where relevant

For the purpose of integrated assessment, this unit may be assessed in conjunction with the following unit(s)

SRXCAI007B Conduct a sport and recreation program

Required knowledge and skills

Required knowledge

Sources of information necessary to effectively organise an identified sport and recreation program

Legislation relevant to ensure compliance with confidentiality requirements of participants participating in a sport and recreation program

Knowledge of group dynamics and factors affecting group and individual needs in order to effectively organise a sport and recreation program

Reasons for client participation in a recreation program in order to ensure appropriate sport and recreation programs are organised

Health and other reasons affecting ability to participate in a session or a recreation program

Organisation's policies and procedures in regard to organising sport and recreation programs

Policies, procedures and requirements specific to the venue/facility in order to ensure appropriate sport and recreation programs are organised

Risk analysis processes in order to ensure all possible risks associated with an organised sport and recreation program have been identified and appropriate action taken to ensure safety of participants and staff

Required skills

Activity-specific skills of the sport and recreation program organised

Organisational skills in order to effectively plan a sport and recreation program, including all relevant details necessary to ensure smooth and efficient operation

Research skills to determine participant needs and organise a sport and recreation program that will suit these needs

Resource implications

Physical resources - assessment of this competency requires access to

participants, equipment and a facility/venue for the conduct of recreation programs

Human resources - assessment of this competency will require human resources consistent with those outlined in the Assessment Guidelines. That is, assessors (or persons within the assessment team) must

be competent in this unit

be current in their knowledge and understanding of the industry through provision of evidence of professional activity in the relevant area

have attained the mandatory competency requirements for assessors under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) as specified in Standard 7.3 of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations

Consistency in performance

Competence in this unit must be assessed over a period of time in order to ensure consistency of performance over the Range Statements and contexts applicable to the organisation of programs within a recreation sector

Context for assessment

This unit of competency must be assessed in the context of a sport or recreation activity with a range of clients. For valid and reliable assessment the sport or recreation activity should closely replicate the work environment. The environment should include real clients and be safe with the hazards, circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a real workplace

This unit of competency should be assessed through the observation of processes and procedures, oral and/or written questioning on required knowledge and skills and consideration of required attitudes

Where performance is not directly observed and/or is required to be demonstrated over a 'period of time' and/or in a 'number of locations', any evidence should be authenticated by colleagues, supervisors, participants or other appropriate persons
