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!

  5. Communicate with other personnel at site according to work requirements and confirm briefings and handover details are communicated and received
  6. Load, unload and move tools and equipment
  7. Confirm adequate consumables are available for the drilling program
  8. Confirm drill site is free of trip hazards
  9. Connect water according to site requirements

Assist in sonic drilling process

  1. Inspect core barrels, rods, casing, bits, threads and associated equipment for damage and fatigue from sonic vibration
  2. Prepare drill string and casing string in readiness for tripping and drilling
  3. Inspect rod handling equipment for damage and/or wear
  4. Use mechanical lifting device to transfer drill rods and casing to/from rod handling equipment and/or mast
  5. Assist driller in tripping rods and casing in/out of hole
  6. Prepare sufficient poly bags, trays, and/or PVC splits for sample presentation
  7. Assist driller to setup for sample retrieval
  8. Designate appropriate area for sample placement and presentation
  9. Confirm core barrel is not too hot to touch
  10. Guide sample into polybag/tray/PVC split
  11. Clearly label sample depth
  12. Lay sample out in designated area for presentation
Inspect core barrels, rods, casing, bits, threads and associated equipment for damage and fatigue from sonic vibration
