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!

SFIBIO501 - Plan and implement an aquaculture biosecurity plan

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

Conduct research for developing a biosecurity plan

  1. Consider the need, purpose and regulatory requirements for a biosecurity plan
  2. Identify approved sector-specific biosecurity plans or guidelines to guide development of farm plan
  3. Identify diseases and pests that could produce adverse consequences to aquatic animal health and farm productivity
  4. Identify the major transmission routes onto, within and from the farm

Develop control measures for biosecurity risks

  1. Assess the level of biosecurity risks associated with entry, development, establishment and spread of diseases and pests
  2. Examine transmission routes onto, within and from the aquaculture farm and identify practices to minimise risk of introducing and spreading diseases and pests
  3. Examine movement of vectors of disease into, out of and within the aquaculture farm and identify practices to minimise risk of introducing and spreading diseases and pests
  4. Examine farm production practices and identify practices to minimise risk of introducing and spreading diseases and pests
  5. Identify wild aquatic and non-aquatic animals relevant to the farm and determine options for their control
  6. Establish and document control measures based on biosecurity risk analysis

Develop, implement, monitor and review biosecurity plan

  1. Develop the biosecurity plan based on documented risk analysis process and specific risk control measures
  2. Develop standard operating procedures based on new biosecurity processes
  3. Induct and train staff in standard operating procedures relevant to their role and responsibility
  4. Implement standard operating procedures and monitor staff performance
  5. Monitor effectiveness and progress of control measures against plan
  6. Monitor regulatory requirements and industry standards relevant to biosecurity and incorporate in plan
  7. Revise and amend risk assessment and control measures as required
  8. Review staff training and induction records to ensure staff are able to implement biosecurity control measures appropriate to their role
