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!

MSL977011 - Troubleshoot equipment and/or production processes

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Identify abnormal equipment and/or process performance

  1. Determine whether testing equipment is operating to manufacturer specifications from available workplace information
  2. Recognise whether equipment outputs are consistent with normal operation
  3. Identify signs of equipment degradation and possible failure
  4. Inspect equipment outputs to determine nature of the problem
  5. Define nature of substandard performance

Identify causes of substandard performance

  1. Select appropriate technical process for investigation
  2. Identify causes using fact-finding processes
  3. Review maintenance records to ensure that system does not need simple maintenance
  4. Review calibration records to ensure system is within calibration
  5. Confirm that the appropriate test procedure, materials and equipment were used
  6. Conduct performance tests as appropriate to investigation
  7. Analyse equipment and/or testing variables to develop list of possible causes
  8. Isolate causes using appropriate elimination techniques
