Software applications may include:
word processing
email programs
internet browsers
spreadsheets
specialised programs
Information sources may include:
job specifications
manufacturer manuals
patterns and specifications, including materials to be used
machine settings
Australian Standards
quality documentation
customer documentation
diagrams, log books

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 the Training Package
Critical aspects of evidence
Demonstrates skills and knowledge to:
access and use technology
navigate software applications
enter, change and delete information or data
use technology according to ergonomic practices
apply OHS practices in work operations
relate the application of computing technology to work role
Consistency in performance
Consistently applies skills and knowledge when:
organising work
completing tasks according to instructions
working systematically with attention to detail
identifying improvements and avoiding damage
using workplace practices
using OHS practices
recording and reporting accidents and incidents
assessing operational readiness of equipment
recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions
Resource implications
Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.
Context for assessment
Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment.
Interdependent assessment
This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.
