Competent performance of Observation
outcomes must be demonstrated to your
assessor on at least two occasions.
Assessor observations, witness testimonies

most appropriate sources of performance
evidence. Professional discussion may be
used as supplementary evidence for those
criteria that do not naturally occur.
5. Knowledge outcomes
There must be evidence that you possess
all the knowledge and understanding
listed in the Knowledge section of this
unit. This evidence may include projects,
assignments, case studies, reflective
accounts, oral/written questioning and/or
other forms of evidence.

Achieving observations
and range
Achieving observation outcomes
Your assessor will observe your performance
of practical tasks. The minimum number
of observations required is indicated in the
evidence requirements section of this unit.
Criteria may not always naturally occur during
a practical observation. In such instances you
will be required to produce supplementary
evidence or asked questions to demonstrate
your competence in this area. Your assessor will
document the criteria that have been achieved
through oral questioning.
Your assessor will sign off an outcome when all
criteria have been competently achieved.
Achieving range
There is no range section that applies to this
unit.

Professional discussion
Where applicable your assessor will integrate
knowledge outcomes into practical observations
through professional discussion and/or oral
questioning.
When a criterion has been orally questioned
and achieved, your assessor will record this
evidence in written form or by other appropriate
means. There is no need for you to produce
additional evidence as this criterion has already
been achieved.
Some knowledge and understanding outcomes
may require you to show that you know and
understand how to do something. If you have
practical evidence from your own work that
meets knowledge criteria, then there is no
requirement for you to be questioned again on
the same topic.
*This is not an exhaustive list.
