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!

LMTTD4006A - Source textile materials and resources

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

Identify and locate required textile resources

  1. Materials required for production of textile products are identified from production specifications
  2. Expertise required for production is identified and in-house availability of skills assessed.
  3. Supply criteria in order to meet production requirements are determined
  4. Textile suppliers in Australia and overseas are identified and researched.
  5. Range of textile services provided by suppliers are identified and compared with supply criteria and production specifications
  6. A shortlist of preferred suppliers that meet criteria is developed and details documented
