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!

FWPCOT3266 - Dress timber using multi-headed machines

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Plan timber dressing process

  1. Review work order, workplace health and safety requirements, environmental protection practices and emergency procedures for timber dressing operation and, where required, check with appropriate personnel
  2. Identify and report hazards and use personal protective equipment according to workplace requirements and health and safety legislation to maintain safe work practices
  3. Identify sizes and quantities for dressed timber, assess available sawn timber and estimate material removal rates

Dress timber

  1. Select and follow the cutting sequence to maximise volume recovery and produce the required dimensions and quantity
  2. Maintain feed rate appropriate to timber condition and size
  3. Assess dressing conditions regularly to ensure continuity of supply and processing
  4. Adjust conditions to optimise feed rate and maintain finished dimensions according to work order
  5. Regularly evaluate and measure dressed timber dimensions and make adjustments to ensure product quality and required dimensions
  6. Dispose of incorrect cuts, off-cuts and defective material according to environmental protection practices
