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!

Evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria under the specified conditions of assessment, and must include:

applying safety procedures relating to aircraft SSS

applying hand skills and applicable maintenance manuals in the removal and installation of SSS components

using ground support equipment and test equipment

determining SSS reconfiguration requirements

explosive ordnance handling and safety

manual handling of SSS components.

The underlying skills inherent in this unit should be transferable across a range of aircraft SSS reconfiguration activities. It is essential that assessment confirms the ability to comply with organisational safety requirements and appropriate legislative and regulatory requirements while maintaining SSS systems. The ability to work safely within an explosive ordnance environment, conduct applicable tests and maintain relevant documentation is critical, including checking specifically for:

failure to check aircraft safety devices are installed

failure to ensure firing devices checked and removed if fitted

commencing task prior to initiating documentation

failure to comply with relevant WHS procedures and policies.

Evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

the aircraft operating and maintenance environment

aircraft SSS and interfaces with the stores management system and other aircraft systems
