Observe Candidate Observation Checklists, if required, are provided in the candidate‟s Assessment Guide and are used to document the findings of the on-job observation. This completed checklist forms part of the candidate‟s evidence for their assessment. When carrying out an observation ensure: All personal protective equipment (PPE) is provided and worn correctly. Safe work practices are followed. The observation is carried out in a naturally occurring situation (as much as possible). The physical environment reflects normal work conditions. You document what you have observed, as required on the observation checklist(s). This includes comments about any specific areas that are judged to be „not yet competent‟, and other comments that will help to clarify what was observed (but should not repeat the information recorded on the checklist). After the observation has finished, the assessor gives the candidate specific feedback on their performance. Completion of Assessment Evidence The candidate is responsible for providing the remainder of the evidence required outlined in the Assessment Guide (i.e. completing the questions, task sheets, and attaching documentation or other evidence such as photos). The assessor may guide and encourage the candidate during this stage, but must not lead them towards the correct outcome. The assessor may, if this is more appropriate for the candidate, ask questions orally and record the candidate‟s answers. They must record the answers verbatim, and indicate at the top of the questions sheet that they have recorded the answers. Review the Completed Assessment The assessor should check that all required evidence has been provided, and that the candidate has completed their personal details on the cover page and filled in their name at the top of each task. If supplementary evidence has also been provided, this should be marked to indicate which part(s) of the assessment guide it applies to. If any evidence is insufficient, it should be returned to the candidate for completion before any judgements are made. Page 48 Assessor Guide, Ed. 2
Make Judgement Making a judgement is a crucial point in the assessment process. This is about judging whether the evidence is sufficient. Ask yourself: Do we have enough evidence to prove that the candidate KNOWS about / can DO the tasks, to the standard required, repeatedly and consistently? Statements on an observation checklist specify the tasks that a candidate must perform, to the required standard. This is recorded during the observation. The Model Answers give clear judgement instructions to help the assessor make decisions around sufficiency of written answers and other evidence. They may also provide example answers. Other documents may also be used to help inform your decision (such as any organisational procedures, manufacturer‟s specifications, legislation, etc). These are listed in the Model Answers under „Requirement documentation‟. When making judgements about written answers and other submitted evidence, it is good practice to include comments about any specific areas that are judged to be „not yet competent‟ and other comments that will help the assessor give valuable feedback to the candidate. Judgement Competent (C), or Achieved (A) Not Yet Competent (NYC), or Not Yet Achieved (NYA) Description All the evidence has met the standards. The candidate has proven they have the knowledge and/or can carry out the tasks to the standards, repeatedly and consistently. All the tasks in their assessment guide were completed fully, to the standard required. Not all the evidence in the candidate‟s assessment guide has met the standards. The candidate may have started to prove they have the knowledge and/or can carry out the tasks to the standards, however there is not enough evidence to prove full competency. Competency-Based Assessment Competency-based assessment is about providing evidence, or proof, that someone KNOWS and/or can DO the tasks set in the standard(s), in a repeatable and consistent way. Let‟s break this down to where you are right now - making a judgement: ”Providing evidence” – the candidate has submitted their completed Assessment Guide. “Evidence proves that the person KNOWS and/or can DO the tasks set in the standard(s)” – the assessment has provided the candidate with the tools to prove what they know and can do. You have gone through their evidence along with the model answers to confirm that they have met the standard. This includes meeting organisational requirements and other special notes.
