Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1 Generate lay-down sheet and imposition scheme

1.1 Printing processes, sheet sizes and binding and finishing instructions are applied to finished artwork to generate an imposition scheme

1.2 A lay-down sheet and imposition scheme are generated according to folding and binding machine requirements and special printing requirements

2 Impose pages and combine components to final machine-sized worksheets

2.1 Pages and combined components are imposed correctly to suit specified sheet size

2.2 Numerical sequence and lay-down of product or mock-up are correctly identified to meet binding and finishing requirements

Foundation Skills

This section describes language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills incorporated in the performance criteria that are required for competent performance.

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:

  • prepare, set up and use a manual or software system to produce TWO layouts according to listed performance criteria and job requirements
  • choose printing processes, sheet sizes, binding and finishing instructions, and numerical sequence and lay-down of the product meet job, and binding and finishing requirements
  • find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources.

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:

  • list main considerations of preparing a layout for a printing press
  • outline different working methods for sheet-fed presses
  • identify image control marks important for press operation, and at binding finishing stage
  • explain calculations to ensure layout size correct
  • describe impact of paper considerations on type of imposition used
  • outline factors that influence imposition choices
  • locate manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task and identify included information.

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 Pre-Press field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and industry software packages.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
