Unit of competency

Modification History

Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to LMTML3006A Assemble complex blocked millinery components

Application

This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to assemble complex blocked millinery shapes and components that require the selection and application of advanced millinery assembly and construction techniques.

The unit of competency applies to assembling combinations of complex blocked millinery shapes, such as hand-blocked crown and brim shapes, resulting in unique millinery with an intricate silhouette.

Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

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
  • interpreting design specification for handling and assembling complex blocked millinery shapes
  • selecting and applying appropriate millinery assembly techniques to combinations of unusual and contrasting blocked shapes
  • selecting construction components and millinery assembly techniques according to the design and handling characteristics of the millinery materials, components, trims and the requirements of the design
  • applying millinery hand sewing or machine construction techniques to assemble components and apply trims for at least two (2) complex millinery items
  • inspecting assembled components to ensure desired proportion and conformance with design specification
  • applying functional and aesthetic trims to the millinery according to the design and specification
  • maintaining the integrity of the millinery design when assembling complex blocked millinery components
  • 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)
  • performance characteristics and handling of hand-blocked millinery materials and components
  • millinery hand sewing and machine sewing assembly techniques
  • construction components
  • advanced construction and assembly techniques
  • millinery adhesion techniques
  • millinery trimming and finishing techniques
  • measures associated with the use and storage of solvent-based millinery adhesives and stiffeners
  • finishing processes:
  • steam, brush or mould the final shape
  • attaching labels and tags
  • techniques to finish the millinery for presentation or despatch
  • maintaining finished millinery and conformance records and reports
  • photographing finished work
  • preparing for storage, display or despatch
  • 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 assembling complex 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.
