Evidence Guide

EVIDENCE GUIDE
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.
Critical aspects of evidence	Locate, interpret and apply relevant information Apply safety requirements throughout the work sequence, including the use of personal protective clothing and equipment Manage the installation and commissioning of a significant equipment within a production or simulated production environment, including the following tasks: identify the impact of decisions in terms of commercial, environmental and safety risks plan and arrange equipment installation and commissioning lead others and work effectively to arrange for installation and commissioning of equipment allocate tasks considering: competency requirements for the work requirements of workplace operating procedures complete post installation trials and evaluation Work effectively with others
Resource implications	Equipment for installation, installation and commissioning service providers.
Method of assessment	Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts. Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge. Assessment should be conducted over time and may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency
Context of assessment	Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Range Statement

RANGE STATEMENT
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.
