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!

Work collaboratively on projects

  1. Methods of collaboration are negotiated and followed
  2. Project objectives are researched, a design brief developed and instigated
  3. Ideas for concept development are shared and worked through
  4. Concepts are critiqued and final outcomes agreed upon in accordance with the elements and principles of design
  5. Management systems are set in place, plan developed and quality control measures adopted for the project
  6. Type and quantity of material to be used is debated, agreed and obtained
  7. Equipment requirements are debated and selected appropriate to project requirements
  8. Project manufacturing procedures are debated and final manufacturing processes agreed, including assembly techniques and finishing methods
  9. Distribution channels, marketing and despatch strategies are debated and instigated
  10. Final presentation of the project is made displaying respect for all collaborators
