Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT |
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1. Dimensions of finished patterns or templates are determined |
1.1. Customer orders are interpreted to determine required dimensions of finished products 1.2. Size requirements are checked in relation to the production process and finishing capacity of the workplace |
2. Plan process |
2.1. Material for pattern or template is identified for approximate size and characteristics 2.2. Required instruments and equipment are identified, located and assembled 2.3. Drawings and related specifications are interpreted 2.4. Procedures for using pattern development instruments and tooling are confirmed and equipment is prepared for use |
3. Plot dimensions |
3.1. Equipment and tooling are used following normal workplace procedures 3.2. Each dimension is measured, exploded and plotted maintaining angles, arcs and curves 3.3. Visual inspection and measurements are used to compare pattern dimensions and shapes with drawings and specifications |
4. Complete pattern or template |
4.1. Pattern or template is completed ensuring that the pattern indicates completion date and original drawing details. 4.2. Required workplace approval of pattern or template is obtained 4.3. Plans are marked with notations for workplace requirements, including authorship, process or customer requirements, authorisation and review dates 4.4.

It is essential that competence in this unit signifies ability to transfer competence to changing circumstances and to respond to unusual circumstances in the critical aspects of:
|
Context of , and specific resources for assessment |
Application of competence is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated worksite Assessment is to occur using standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints Assessment is to comply with regulatory requirements, including Australian Standards The following resources should be made available:
|
Method of assessment |
Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the automotive industry's RS&R Training Package Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance together with application of underpinning knowledge Assessment must be by direct observation of tasks, with questioning on underpinning knowledge and it must also reinforce the integration of key competencies Assessment may be applied under project related conditions and require evidence of process Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competence is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances It is preferable that assessment reflects a process rather than an event and occurs over a period of time to cover varying quality circumstances. Evidence of performance may be provided by customers, team leaders/members or other persons subject to agreed authentication arrangements Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role |
