The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Assessment must confirm the ability to:
adhere to relevant WHS requirements and operational safety
plan and establish explosive ordnance processes
identify and acquire resources and adjust as necessary to ensure effective/efficient performance of the processes
Assessment must also confirm ability to initiate and efficiently monitor processes, initiate any remedial action required, communicate with supervisors, suppliers, clients and subordinates, prepare and provide relevant reports and documentation, and effectively and efficiently manage explosive ordnance processes.
Consistency in performance
Competency should be demonstrated in a range of actual or simulated explosive ordnance contexts.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
Context of assessment
Competency should be assessed in the workplace or under conditions which accurately simulate a realistic workplace in accordance with all relevant legislation and organisational requirements.
Specific resources for assessment
Access is required to:
facilities and resources used in the packaging, storage, distribution and maintenance of explosive ordnance, including a licensed explosive site
Method of assessment
This unit may be assessed with the following unit:
DEFEO101D Work safely with explosive ordnance.
In a public safety environment assessment is usually conducted via direct observation in a training environment or in the workplace via subject matter supervision and/or mentoring, which is typically recorded in a competency workbook.
Assessment is completed using appropriately qualified assessors who select the most appropriate method of assessment.
Assessment may occur in an operational environment or in an industry-approved simulated work environment. Forms of assessment that are typically used include:
direct observation
interviewing the candidate
journals and workplace documentation
third party reports from supervisors
written or oral questions
