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

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, and to:

develop and evaluate a cloud disaster recovery plan that includes at least three major risk events.

In the course of the above, the candidate must:

determine likelihood and impact of risk event to assist in the development of one cloud disaster recovery plan

document disaster recovery plan and ways the plan reaches Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) targets.

The candidate must demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit. This includes knowledge of:

risk environments in cloud/ICT environment

data analysis methodologies to determine risk environment

disaster recovery techniques applicable to cloud environments

ISO270001, ISO27002 and ISO 27031 standards

Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) standards and techniques

techniques and methods to monitor and create alerts in cloud environments.
