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!

Slaughter crocodile

  1. Crocodiles to be slaughtered are identified and shot, according to OHS requirements and legislative requirements for the humane slaughter of animals.
  2. The carcase is cut to facilitate the drainage of blood.
  3. The bled carcase is washed in potable water to remove blood.
  4. Carcases that are contaminated with faeces are set aside, and a supervisor notified.
  5. The rinsed carcase is transferred to an appropriately chilled room to complete the drainage process by hanging.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment is to be conducted at the workplace or in a simulated work environment. To ensure consistency and level of performance a minimum of three (3) crocodiles in a weight range typical for the industry are to be slaughtered, skinned and boned, and the meat and skin packaged.
