Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to LMTML2008A Assemble simple blocked millinery 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 requirements for assembling headwear components
  • obtaining the millinery components to be used
  • preparing components and materials for assembly
  • pin, tack or otherwise prepare components for assembly
  • selecting and using a variety of attachment methods
  • sewing at least two (2) millinery components by hand or machine or glue together to meet design requirements
  • inspecting assembled components to ensure work meets workplace procedures and quality standards
  • operating machines and equipment safely, including heat and steam equipment used within the enterprise, on at least two (2) occasions
  • recognising faults or non-conforming outcomes and rectifying as required
  • applying workplace procedures
  • recording and reporting outcomes.

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
  • blocked millinery components:
  • woven straw
  • straw braid
  • fabrics
  • fur
  • skin
  • felt
  • assembly or attachment methods:
  • hand sew
  • machine sew
  • glue
  • fuse
  • inspection and checking procedures
  • workplace procedures
  • reporting and recording 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 assembling simple blocked millinery 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.
