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

Evidence Guide

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply without error legislative and regulatory requirements relating to the certification of aeronautical product maintenance.

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

It is essential that airworthiness compliance requirements are interpreted and fully applied without error.

Evidence is required of underlying knowledge and skills associated with the application of airworthiness legislation and compliance requirements, along with evidence of appropriate levels of literacy and oral expression associated with presenting clear and concise information.

A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the unit of competency are being achieved under supervision without intervention on a range of tasks fully representative of Groups 1 to 18 in the Range Statement. The body of evidence for this unit may be collected and logged during simulated activities at the CASR Part 147 MTO and/or performance during supervised workplace activities.

Knowledge must also be demonstrated of the concept of airworthiness that underpins the legislative framework and compliance requirements.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency should be assessed in the work environment under supervision but without intervention for the purpose of Journal entries, and/or by use of simulated activities in a CASR Part 147 MTO, covering the interpretation and application of airworthiness control and certification requirements.

Method of assessment

This unit must be linked in its assessment and application to those that apply to the performance of maintenance on the applicable items of aeronautical product.

Guidance information for assessment

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

describing and applying the requirements applicable to the privileges of their authority

application of Airworthiness Directive requirements under CASR Part 39

application of Aviation Maintenance Personnel Licensing Requirements under CASR Part 66

application of requirements related to conduct and certification of maintenance under CASR Part 145 and CASR Part 42 Subpart F

demonstrating a familiarity with requirements related to the tasks and functions they may perform

demonstration of literacy and oral expression skills required for clear written and oral communication

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

Airworthiness Directive requirements under CASR Part 39

Maintainers' Responsibilities under CASR Parts 66, 145 and 42 Subpart F

Aviation Maintenance Personnel Licensing Requirements under CASR Part 66

Maintenance Organisations Requirements under CASR Part 145 and 42 Subpart F

Design Organisations under CASR Part 21J

Maintenance Training Organisations under CASR Part 147

Range Statement

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Note

Range statements listed below are numbered to facilitate specification of the assessment requirements included in the Evidence Guide

The competency applies to the certification of aircraft maintenance activities, including:

1. Scheduled maintenance

2. Unscheduled maintenance

3. Configuration changes

4. Modification incorporation

5. Repairs

In performing Tasks 1 to 5, knowledge is to be applied with regard to airworthiness regulatory systems and Australian legislation, and the application of compliance requirements in the performance, recording and certification of maintenance activities, as follows:

6. International and national regulatory bodies and recognition agreements, including bilateral agreements

7. Australian airworthiness regulatory bodies and the legislative framework

8. The basis of airworthiness certification and determination of non-conformity

9. Procedures for release of aeronautical product to service following maintenance

10. Procedures for certification of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activities

11. Procedures for certification of the incorporation of modifications

12. Procedures for certifying the completion of repairs

13. Determining and applying configuration management procedures

14. Compiling and processing service difficulty reports

15. Compiling and processing technical investigation reports
