The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview o f assessment 

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit 

Evidence of the ability to:

  • develop a recovery plan
  • safely disconnect, dismantle and recover customer premises equipment
  • package and label recovered equipment

Context of , and specific resources for assessment 

Assessment must ensure:

  • site where recovery of customer premises equipment can be conducted
  • use of plant, tools and equipment currently used in industry
  • relevant regulatory and equipment documentation that impact on work activities.

Methods of assessment 

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit.

  • direct observation of the candidate making site safe
  • direct observation of the candidate performing recovery of customer premises equipment
  • review of plan for dismantling and recovery prepared by the candidate
  • oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of customer premises equipment and recovery issues.

Guidance information for assessment 

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:

  • ICTCBL3052A Cut over new systems and equipment on customer premises
  • ICTTEN3075A Refurbish customer premises equipment.

Aboriginal people and other people from a non-English speaking background may have second language issues.

Access must be provided to appropriate learning and assessment support when required.

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate, and appropriate to the oral communication skill level, and language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

In all cases where practical assessment is used it will be combined with targeted questioning to assess required knowledge. Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency.

Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with special needs.
