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!

ICTSAS403 - Review site environmental factors prior to ICT system implementation

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

Plan work area

  1. Obtain technical and environmental system requirements for equipment to be installed and document site requirements, including work health and safety (WHS) site specific requirements
  2. Consider and take action on requirements associated with equipment against installation requirements
  3. Conduct on-site inspection and audit against site specifications
  4. Formulate preliminary recommendations for site and assess impact on system installation schedule
  5. Prepare preliminary report specifying recommended changes to the site to meet requirements and submit report to appropriate person for approval
