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!

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The Evidence Guide identifies the critical aspects, knowledge and skills to be demonstrated to confirm competence for this unit. This is an integral part of the assessment of competence and should be read in conjunction with the Range Statements

Critical aspects of evidence to be considered

Assessment must confirm sufficient knowledge of the range of facility requirements within the learner's work environment and the procedures to assess the suitability of facilities

Assessment of performance should be over a period of time covering all categories of facility applicable in the learners work environment to suit both short and long-term use

In particular, assessment must confirm the ability to

identify facilities to suit purpose

confirm that the facility meets requirements, health and safety standards, client needs and budget

negotiate facility use and document agreements/contract conditions

acquire the facility in a cost effective manner

keep accurate records of available facilities

Interdependent assessment of units

This unit must be assessed after attainment of competency in the following unit(s)

Nil

This unit must be assessed in conjunction with the following unit(s)

Nil

For the purpose of integrated assessment, this unit may be assessed in conjunction with the following units

Other units from the Resource Management field within the National Sport and Recreation Industry Competency Standards

Required knowledge and skills

Required knowledge

Range of potential facilities available

Methods by which the potential facility can be equipped for the purpose and the standard required

Contractual obligations and current practice for hiring/leasing facilities

Relevant health and safety legislation and guidelines

Industrial relations acts, insurance laws, local government by-laws and by-laws of relevant associations (state, national and international)

Likely needs and concerns of local residents and users of the facility

Benefits to owners of the proposed use for facility

Procedures and relevant legislation covering the hiring of facilities

Recording procedures to meet organisational requirements

Consequences of not keeping accurate records of negotiated terms of facility use

Communication systems within organisation to inform personnel of the terms of agreement for facility use

Required skills

Communication and negotiation skills to deal with difficulties and areas of conflict in carrying out negotiations to acquire facilities

Resource implications

Physical resources - assessment of this competency requires the learner to

have access to a real work environment with facility requirements

Human resources - assessment of this unit of competency will require human resources consistent with those outlined in the Assessment Guidelines. That is, assessors (or persons within the assessment team) must

be competent in this unit but preferably be competent in the unit at the level above

be current in their knowledge and understanding of the industry through provision of evidence of professional activity in the relevant area

have attained the mandatory competency requirements for assessors under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) as specified in Standard 7.3 of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations

Consistency in performance

This unit of competency must be assessed over a period of time in order to ensure consistency of performance over the Range Statements and contexts applicable to identifying facility requirements and negotiating facility use based on requirements

Context for assessment

This unit of competency must be assessed in the context of a sport or recreation facility. For valid and reliable assessment the sport or recreation facility should closely replicate those encountered in the work environment. The facility should be safe with the hazards, circumstances and equipment likely to be encountered in a real workplace

Assessment of this unit of competence will usually include observation of processes and procedures, oral and/or written questioning on required knowledge and skills and consideration of required attitudes

Where performance is not directly observed and/or is required to be demonstrated over a "period of time" and/or in a "number of locations", any evidence should be authenticated by colleagues, supervisors, clients or other appropriate persons

KEY COMPETENCIES
