Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Instructions to Assessors

Required Skills and Knowledge
Range Statement

This section specifies 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.

Personal protective equipment must include:

a suitable quad bike helmet

enclosed toe shoes.

Pre-operational checks must include:

vehicle damage and serviceability

fuel

brake effectiveness

throttle smooth operation and self-closing return

tyres including pressure and condition

vehicle controls.

Quad bike active riding techniques must include:

pre-positioning, correct timing and appropriate adjustment of operator body weight when going uphill including body weight forward

pre-positioning, correct timing and appropriate adjustment of operator body weight when going downhill including body weight rearward

positioning of operator body weight centrally when cornering at very slow speeds, and transition to positioning of operator body weight to the inside of the turn when cornering at higher speeds

positioning of operator body weight centrally when cornering at very slow speeds, and transition to positioning of operator body weight to the uphill side when riding across slopes

standing up to improve situational awareness and ability to exercise active riding technique, when operating in restricted visibility situations, rough terrains, crossing obstacles and avoiding hazards.

Unload, load and secure quad bike must include at least one of the following:

trailer

transportation device

on-site vehicle storage.
