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!

Plan process for fitting attachments to products

  1. Work health and safety (WHS) requirements, including ergonomic criteria and personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
  2. Appropriate equipment is identified to minimise risks of damage to customers' premises or injuries to self
  3. Manufacturer information on products used is located and used to plan work
  4. Attachment process is planned to conform to quality requirements, minimise time, economically use materials and maximise appearance of the finished work
  5. Materials, tools and equipment are assembled and checked for suitability for purpose
  6. Track/pole/rod width and projection is set up to provide for stacking space, overlap, projection, return, and number of rings/hooks, guides/runners and other fittings in order to correctly match work order requirements
