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!

PPMPUL440 - Troubleshoot and rectify pulping processes

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

Identify and analyse causes of faults

  1. Identify faults in pulping processesin accordance with productivity requirements, relevant workplace health and safety (WHS) procedures, risks and hazards identification and environmental workplace procedures.
  2. Interpret alarm systems and observations to determine faults and location.
  3. Identify faults through routine physical inspections of plant, processes and equipment.
  4. Interpret sampling and results to identify variations from specifications or schedule.
  5. Use appropriate techniques to identify and locate cause and source of the problem.
  6. Access and analyse relevant data, as required to assist analysis.
