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!

TLIJ4009A - Implement and monitor quality assurance systems

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

Plan for quality assurance activities

  1. Products and services to be quality assured are identified alongside resources required
  2. Objectives of the QA activities are determined and discussed with those responsible for carrying them out
  3. Proposed methods and techniques to be applied are clearly understood and implemented

Perform quality assurance procedures

  1. Resources required to carry out the QA efficiently and effectively are accessed
  2. Quality of operations, service or products is monitored and adjusted as required to meet organisational specifications and standards
  3. Variations in the quality of operations and services or products from required standards are detected and reported in accordance with organisational procedures
  4. Problems that affect or could potentially affect quality are reported to relevant person
  5. Records are kept according to organisational QA policy and procedures

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required knowledge and skills, the range statement and the assessment guidelines for this Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria of this unit and include demonstration of applying:

the underpinning knowledge and skills

relevant legislation and workplace procedures

other relevant aspects of the range statement

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Performance is demonstrated consistently over a period of time and in a suitable range of contexts

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulated practical and knowledge assessment, and/or

access to an appropriate range of relevant operational situations in the workplace

In both real and simulated environments, access is required to:

relevant and appropriate materials and equipment, and

applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals

Method of assessment

As a minimum, assessment of knowledge must be conducted through appropriate written/oral tests

Practical assessment must occur:

through activities in an appropriately simulated environment and/or

in an appropriate range of situations in the workplace

Required Skills and Knowledge

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

This describes the essential knowledge and skills and their level required for this unit.

Required knowledge:

Various approaches to quality assurance and their strengths and limitations

Requirements for completing relevant documentation, such as checklists, schedules and internal audit reports

Data analysis and evaluation methods

Typical defects that can occur and related action that should be taken

Relevant organisational specifications and standards that require quality assured outcomes

Required skills:

Complete documentation related to work activities

Apply analysis and evaluation methods to materials, resources and outputs, including final products

Modify activities depending on differing operational contingencies, risk situations and environments without compromising quality
