Assessment Conditions
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the vehicle units and components that they have tested, e.g. repair orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
- workplace instructions
- vehicle service and repair manuals
- PPE required to remove and test vehicle components
- SDS for cleaning agents
- cleaning agents
- vehicle components that require testing for correct operation, including:
- three different vehicle mechanical components
- three different vehicle electrical components, including head light assembly
- tools, equipment and materials appropriate for testing vehicle components.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
