Performance Evidence
The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including evidence of the ability to:
- conduct airless and atomised spraying operations on at least two occasions, including:
- applying at least thirty square metres (30m2) of transverse lines within specified tolerances using airless or atomised spray equipment.
During the above, the candidate must:
- locate and apply required documentation, policies and procedures
- identify, report and record hazards, risks and environmental issues
- work with others to undertake and complete airless and atomized spraying operations that meets required outcomes, including:
- communicating with others to receive and clarify work instructions
- using communication techniques and systems to advise others of work activity and exclusion zones.
Knowledge Evidence
The candidate must be able to demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including knowledge of:
- policies, procedures and documentation required to conduct airless and atomised spraying operations, including those relating to:
- work health and safety
- emergency response
- equipment operation
- work instructions
- applying road marking materials
- operational, maintenance and basic diagnostics
- project quality
- site isolation and traffic control responsibilities and authorities
- manufacturer specifications for required plant and equipment
- site requirements
- communication techniques and equipment
- workplace reporting requirements
- Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and materials handling methods
- Job Safety Analyses (JSAs)/Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS)
- housekeeping activities, including:
- cleaning work area
- cleaning and maintaining condition of equipment
- waste management
- processing records
- processes for identifying road markings
- processes for preparing marking material for easy application and required drying time
- equipment types, characteristics, technical capabilities and limitations for conducting airless and atomised spraying operations
- civil construction terminology relevant to conducting airless and atomised spraying operations
- processes for measuring and calculating quantity of completed road marking and materials usage.
Assessment Conditions
Mandatory conditions for assessment of this unit are stipulated below. The assessment must:
- personal protective equipment
- equipment required to conduct airless and atomised spraying operations
- be conducted in a safe environment; and,
- be assessed in the context of this sector's work environment; and,
- be assessed in compliance with relevant legislation/regulation and using policies, procedures and processes directly related to the industry sector for which it is being assessed; and,
- confirm consistent performance can be applied in a range of relevant workplace circumstances.
Where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment may occur in a simulated work environment* provided it is realistic and sufficiently rigorous to cover all aspects of this sector’s workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.
Assessor requirements
Assessors must be able to clearly demonstrate current and relevant industry knowledge and experience to satisfy the mandatory regulatory standards as set out in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015/Australian Quality Training Framework mandatory requirements for assessors current at the time of assessment and any relevant licensing and certification requirements. This includes:
- vocational competencies at least to the level being delivered and assessed
- current industry skills directly relevant to the training and assessment being provided
- current knowledge and skills in vocational training and learning that informs their training and assessment
- formal relevant qualifications in training and assessment
- having knowledge of and/or experience using the latest techniques and processes
- possessing the required level of RII training product knowledge
- having an understanding and knowledge of legislation and regulations relevant to the industry and to employment and workplaces
- demonstrating the performance evidence, and knowledge evidence outlined in this unit of competency, and
- the minimum years of current** work experience after competency has been obtained as specified below in an industry sector relevant to the outcomes of the unit.
It is also acceptable for the appropriately qualified assessor to work with an industry expert to conduct assessment together and for the industry expert to be involved in the assessment judgement. The industry expert must have current industry skills directly relevant to the training and assessment being provided. This means the industry subject matter expert must demonstrate skills and knowledge from the minimum years of current work experience after competency has been obtained as specified below, including time spent in roles related to the unit being assessed:

*Guidance on simulated environments has been stipulated in the RII implementation guide located on VETNet.
**Assessors can demonstrate current work experience through employment within industry in a role relevant to the outcomes of the unit; or, for external assessors this can be demonstrated through exposure to industry by conducting a minimum number of site assessments as determined by the relevant industry sector, across various locations.
***While a unit of competency does not have an AQF level, where a unit is being delivered outside of a qualification the first numeric character in the unit code should be considered as the AQF indicator level for assessment purposes.
