Assessment Conditions
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the components for custom bicycles that they have selected and assembled, e.g. build orders.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- bicycle workplace or simulated workplace
- workplace instructions
- personal protective equipment (PPE) required to assemble a custom bicycle
- bicycle and component manufacturer specifications
- customer requiring a custom bicycle
- a bicycle frame and components for assembly
