Performance Evidence
An individual demonstrating competency must satisfy all of the elements and performance criteria in this unit.
There must be evidence that the individual has effectively used numerical applications for work purposes, on at least two different occasions, including:
- identifying whether a calculation or estimation is required to meet workplace requirements
- performing calculations involving basic addition, subtraction, division and multiplication to support work role (this may involve use of a calculator and conversion tables)
- using estimation techniques to check quantities, ratios, speed and other required data estimates
- using estimation techniques to check calculated results and workplace data
- recording calculations and measurement information accurately, according to workplace procedures.
Knowledge Evidence
An individual must be able to demonstrate the knowledge required to perform the tasks outlined in the elements and performance criteria of this unit. This includes knowledge of:
- mathematical processes, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division
- application of calculation and estimation techniques to meet work requirements
- units of measurement used in the workplace, including whole numbers, fractions and decimals to one decimal point (this may include use of conversion charts)
- representation of numerical information relevant to work requirements, including charts, graphs and tables
- recording requirements and responsibilities relevant to work role.
Assessment Conditions
Assessment of skills must take place under the following conditions:
- skills must be demonstrated in a workplace setting or an environment that accurately represents a real workplace
- resources, equipment and materials:
- real or simulated work tasks requiring simple estimation and calculation
- conversion tables, calculators and measuring instruments.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
