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 specifies the evidence required to demonstrate achievement in the unit of competency as a whole. It must be read in conjunction with the unit descriptor, performance criteria, range statement and the assessment guidelines for the Metal and Engineering Training Package

Overview of assessment requirements

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to assemble general fabricated components in plate, pipe and section or sheet. During assessment the individual will: demonstrate safe working practices at all times; communicate information about processes, events or tasks being undertaken to ensure a safe and efficient working environment; take responsibility for the quality of their own work; plan tasks in all situations and review task requirements as appropriate; perform all tasks in accordance with standard operating procedures; perform all tasks to specification; and use accepted engineering techniques, practices, processes and workplace procedures. Tasks involved will be completed within reasonable timeframes relating to typical workplace activities.

Competency in this unit cannot be claimed until all prerequisites have been satisfied.

Context of assessment

This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is the candidate is not in productive work, then an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations. The competencies covered by this unit would be demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team. The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate.

Interdependent assessment

This unit could be assessed in conjunction with any other units addressing the safety, quality, communication, materials handling, recording and reporting associated with the assembly of fabricated components or other units requiring the exercise of the skills and knowledge covered by this unit.

Method of assessment

Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid, sufficient, current and authentic. Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways including direct observation, supervisor's reports, project work, samples and questioning. Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency. The candidate must have access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required. The candidate must be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials.

Consistency of performance

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently perform all elements of the unit as specified by the criteria, including required knowledge, and be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts.

Required skills

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

constructing jigs where appropriate

applying distortion prevention/control techniques

positioning components in accordance with drawing/specifications

using jigs, fixtures, tools and equipment

correctly marking the datum line

checking the position of all assembled components visually and dimensionally

using appropriate fixing/joining techniques

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

methods for assembly of fabricated components

jigs construction

effects of distortion of fabricated components

distortion prevention techniques

drawing and material list

characteristics of relevant tools and equipment squareness, level, alignment

function of datum lines

variety of fixing/joining techniques

defects associated with the assembly of fabricated components

methods of rectification of defects by rework or adjustment

requirements of relevant codes/standards

Required Skills and Knowledge
Range Statement

The range statement provides information about the context in which the unit of competency is carried out. The variables and scope cater for different work requirements, work practices and knowledge between States, Territories and the Commonwealth, and between organisations and workplaces. The range statement relates to the unit as a whole and provides a focus for assessment. Text in italics in the performance criteria is explained here.

The following variables may be present and may include, but are not limited to, the examples listed under the scope. All work is undertaken to relevant legislative requirements, where applicable

Variable

Scope

Distortion prevention/control techniques

Jigs, fixtures, heat, clamps, etc.

Components

General fabricated components in either plate, pipe and section or sheet

Alignment

Typical structural alignment and levelling using planes and line straight edges, spirit levels, line levels, squares, etc.

Fixing/joining techniques

Welding, adhesives, fasteners, rivets, etc.

Codes/standards

All work carried out in accordance with legislative and regulatory requirements
