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!

SISOFSH004 - Lead fishing activities

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

Prepare equipment and participants.

  1. Assess characteristics, condition and capability of participants, as they present, and obtain informed consent.
  2. Confirm participants have clothing and footwear appropriate for the activity and anticipated weather conditions.
  3. Select and set up equipment to match participants and prevailing conditions; complete safety checks.
  4. Check participants’ own equipment, if provided, and confirm safe working condition.
  5. Direct and assist participants to fit and adjust equipment; check comfort and safety of fit.
