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!

Analyse millinery pattern requirements

  1. Design information in analysed and specifications are interpreted to identify component shapes of the millinery item
  2. Hat blocks needed to achieve the crown and brim shapes of the design are determined
  3. Hat blocks are selected according to design and head size
  4. Hat blocks are prepared
  5. Medium to be used for making the patterns is selected and prepared

Develop and test millinery patterns

  1. Medium is applied to hat blocks
  2. Millinery design lines are marked onto pattern medium according to specifications of millinery design
  3. Design proportions are checked in relation to millinery design and placement of the hat on the head
  4. First patterns are cut by applying pattern-making techniques for millinery
  5. Patterns aretested by making a mock-up or toile in paper or other millinery foundation material
  6. Full patterns suitable for single-layer cutting are made for the hat

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

assessing operational readiness of equipment used and work processes

recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions

completing work systematically with attention to detail without damage to goods and equipment

Context and specific resources for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment and requires access to work areas, materials and equipment and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Guidance information for assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.
