Evidence Guide
The Evidence Guide describes the underpinning knowledge and skills that must be demonstrated to prove competence. It is essential for assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines of the relevant Training Package.
Critical aspects of evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit:
ability to organise and co-ordinate the work of team for installation/dismantling
detailed knowledge of the exhibition set-up process in the relevant industry context
application of organisational, planning and problem solving skills
Context of assessment and consistency of performance
The assessment context must provide for:
practical demonstration of skills through the co-ordination of an installation/dismantling process
involvement of and interaction with a team for whom the candidate can plan and organise work
Relationships to other units
It is recommended that this unit be assessed with or after the following unit:
BSBFLM404A - Lead work teams
This unit also has linkages to a range of other technical and general supervisory units, and combined assessment and/or training with those units would be appropriate, for example:
CUVCRS03A - Produce computer-aided drawings
Method of assessment
Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:
evaluation of an installation co-ordinated by the candidate
evaluation of reports prepared by the candidate detailing methods used to organise installation/dismantling, challenges faced and how these were resolved
case studies and problem-solving exercises to assess ability to plan for different situations and contexts
review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate
Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands and the needs of particular groups [e.g. people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling].
Essential skills and knowledge
Assessment must include evidence of the following knowledge and skills:
in depth knowledge of the installation/dismantling process
planning and organisational requirements for exhibition installation/dismantling, the roles of key personnel and the typical issues and problems encountered
inventory systems and procedures used for equipment and materials in an exhibitions context
sources of additional equipment and supplies for different exhibition elements
sources of specialist assistance relevant to the work context
Occupational Health and Safety requirements that affect the allocation of work and the movement of physical elements
environmental and other risk factors for both people and physical elements
principles of universal access and impact on installation
technical procedures for handling physical elements in the relevant work context, eg artworks, historical objects
cultural protocols that impact on installation/dismantling, including those for ATSI material
effective communication techniques in relation to team leading
Specific resource requirements
Assessment of this unit requires access to:
an exhibition and exhibition venue
physical exhibition elements
exhibition documentation
