Context of and specific resources for assessment
The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace.
Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.
Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context.
Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standard requirements.
The following resources should be made available:
shower screen/wardrobe door glass and mirror
aluminium framing material
fixtures
waterproof sealant
workplace operating procedures
personal protective equipment
an appropriate work area.
Method of assessment
Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 Furnishing Industry Training Package.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge.
Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.
Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.
Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.
