Application
This unit applies to the compilation of a folio showcasing personal jewellery or 3D object works or those of a client. It includes using images the present works both on and off the body. This unit does not cover the manufacture of such objects. If items are to be manufactured, then appropriate units should also be selected.
Prerequisites
Not applicable.

1.3 | Document ideas and concept development using a range of media | ||
1.4 | Identify constraints and limitations in presenting jewellery or objects in various formats on and off the body, and determine implications for folio concept | ||
1.5 | Select folio concept based on practical considerations and appropriateness to function, purpose and objectives of jewellery or objects to be displayed | ||
2 | Collect and prepare source materials | 2.1 | Collect and prepare drawings, sketches, jewellery, objects and works for photographing/illustrating or other processing |
2.2 | Select images that present works on and off the body to portray key features of the item | ||
2.3 | Select display formats for individual items/folio elements to emphasise message and meaning | ||
2.4 | Obtain resources for producing design folio | ||
2.5 | Produce design documentation, as required, using appropriate media and formats | ||
3 | Compile design folio | 3.1 | Arrange and sequence folio elements for required visual effect |
3.2 | Confirm that the completed folio is consistent with aims and objectives | ||
3.3 | Check the completed folio for accuracy of content and consistency of arrangement, layout and style | ||
3.4 | Ensure adherence to protocols, conventions and industry standards |

Evidence Required
Overview of assessment | A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to develop a design portfolio of jewellery and 3D objects. |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently: determine options for presentation of jewellery and 3D objects in a folio context produce a design folio which demonstrates key features of jewellery or 3D objects according to the intended purpose of the folio. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment. Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices. Where applicable, reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate ethnicity, age, gender, demographics and disability. Access must be provided to appropriate learning and/or assessment support when required. Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities. |
Method of assessment | Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the MEM05 Metal and Engineering Training Package. Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge. Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application. Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process. Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances. Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency where required. |
Guidance information for assessment | Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed. |
