Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to LMTML2010A Make millinery with flat pattern components

Performance Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include:

  • reading and following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), safe work practices
  • confirming pattern requirements and identifying construction requirements
  • preparing and handling millinery materials
  • safely using cutting implements and sewing machines
  • using patterns to set out and cut materials on at least two (2) occasions
  • checking and adjusting pattern as required to meet requirements
  • matching millinery pieces and sewing or fusing to meet the requirements of the pattern specifications on at least two (2) occasions
  • identifying faults, non-conforming materials or components and making required adjustments to meet quality standards
  • applying workplace procedures
  • maintaining accurate records.

Knowledge Evidence

Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • industry and product processes and equipment
  • materials and their application in millinery manufacture, including their composition and effects of temperature and steam:
  • non-critical fabrics
  • natural materials
  • synthetic materials
  • pattern sizing and adjustment
  • machine operation
  • inspection and checking procedures
  • quality standards
  • workplace procedures
  • recording and reporting practices.

Assessment Conditions

  • Assessors must:
  • satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment, as set by the VET regulator
  • have vocational competency in making millinery with flat pattern components, at least to the level being assessed, with relevant industry knowledge and experience.
  • Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
  • Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
  • Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
