Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release 

Comments 

Release 1

This version first released with ICP Printing and Graphic Arts Training Package Version 1.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

  • produce a portfolio that includes documentation showing planning of operational processes (either a new process or modification of an existing process) in any ONE of pre-press, printing, screen printing, converting, binding and finishing, corrugating or laminating.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

Production requirements 

  • summarise production plan information that will aid in determining a suitable production process
  • explain the relevance of production schedules, material requirements and customer requirements to process operations
  • describe the possible impacts of changes to process technology or product on existing production areas including:
  • whether existing machinery or equipment can be utilised
  • special provisions needed for new equipment or machinery
  • expected production life of equipment

Reviewing, testing and costing  

  • explain the method used to review existing processes
  • explain the methods used to estimate costs and cost savings
  • explain the role of test and trials in identifying suitable processes

Determining production sequence  

  • explain how steps for the process and equipment and material requirements are identified and documented
  • explain how quality assurance requirements are identified

Assessment Conditions

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the Support field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
