Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) Assessment Tool Kit

LMF30602 Certificate III in Glass and GlazingThis RPL Assessment Tool Kit has been developed by the Western Australian Department of Education and Training, in consultation with industry, as a resource to assist RPL Assessors by providing a set of quality assessment tools, which can be used to conduct whole-of-qualification RPL. This kit also contains information, which can be provided to the candidate.

This kit should be customised to suit the needs of the candidate, employer/industry or Assessor and reflect the purpose for which it is being used.

It is recommended that prior to using this kit for the first time, and after any modifications or contextualisation, that this Assessment Tool Kit be validated by the user to ensure it meets the required Australian Qualification Training Framework Standards (AQTF), relevant Training Package requirements and Registered Training Organisation (RTO) policies.

A task-based model for RPLA process for RPL has been developed that promotes holistic, task-based assessment, and which focuses on relating assessment activities to actual job tasks. The intention of this model is to streamline and simplify recognition processes for prospective candidates. This RPL Assessment Tool Kit has been developed to support this task-based model.

The focus of the new streamlined holistic assessment process is to focus on demonstrated skills and knowledge and is not reliant on documentary evidence as the main source of evidence.

PART 1

Section 1

Assessor’s InformationIt is important that you complete both Sections 3 (Interview/Questioning) and 4 (Practical Tasks) when completing RPL assessment using this kit.

The RPL process is a streamlined process which does not rely solely on documentary evidence. It uses a combination of questioning, practical assessment and supporting evidence to provide evidence of the candidate’s competence.



IntroductionWelcome to the LMF30602 Certificate III in Glass and Glazing RPL Assessment Tool Kit.

This RPL Assessment Tool Kit contains twenty-three (23) units, (four core and nineteen specialist units) required for the award of this qualification.

It is simply set out, with a comprehensive list of instructions at the front of each document, as well as covering instructions for each step of the process, as found in the notes for the Assessor, and notes for the candidate.

Included in this kit are the following documents:

Assessor’s Information

Qualification Rules and list of units of competency contained in this kit

Units of competency separated into clusters/skill sets for assessment

Tool Kits for each clusters/skill set, in order:

► Interview Question Bank and Recording Sheets

► Practical Tasks and Observation Recording Sheets

Candidate information

► Candidate Self-Evaluation Form (incorporating Third Party Verification)

Mapping Documents (including Dimensions of Competency and Employability Skills) for all the units of competency included in this kit.



Explanation of RPL Documentsa) Interview Question Bank and Recording Sheets (Section 3): The interview question

bank is the second stage of the process, in which the Assessor and the candidate confirm the knowledge by discussing a series of questions. Each of these questions includes a series of Key Points, which may assist the Assessor in guiding the discussions.

b) Practical Tasks and Observation Recording Sheets (Section 4): These tools are designed to guide the Assessor and candidate through a workplace observation, proving the candidate’s ability to conduct the specific tasks and skills required for recognition of competence in the particular area.

c) Self-Evaluation Form (Section 5): This document is for the candidate to assess their suitability for RPL process, by asking them to consider each of the points and assessing their ability against the task. It has been broken into smaller skill groups, clustering like activities together to enable ease of completion. It is then reinforced by the candidate’s supervisor’s comments, both against tasks and as a summary for each group. This serves as third party validation of the candidate’s claims.

d) Third Party Report and Supporting Documentation (Section 6): The third party verification report is provided for referees, for example the supervisor, to confirm the candidate’s skills and experience in the qualification/occupation. This is particularly useful in addressing Employability Skill requirements. It is important to note that third party reports are not always available and it is recommended that Assessors use their professional judgement to determine if this is a requirement.

List of suggested supporting documentation (if applicable): A list of suggested industry specific evidence or supporting documentation (in addition to the generic documentation) is provided to assist the candidate in collecting evidence to support their application.

e) Mapping document (Section 7): This tool demonstrates how each of the documents reflects the units of competency in the particular Cluster/Skill Set.

Employability skills: This qualification has embedded employability skills. The interview and demonstration/observation tasks have been mapped against the employability skills for this qualification to assist the Assessor in identifying the target areas.

These tools have been developed to support a ‘whole of trade’ approach to assessment of prior learning that reflects the work undertaken in the industry sector.

In recognition of this, consultation with the industry sector has occurred in order to cluster the units into a number of skills sets that closely resemble how the work is undertaken and managed in the glass and glazing industry.

The role of the Assessor in this assessment process is to look at the application from a holistic perspective to determine if the applicant can provide sufficient valid and reliable evidence of knowledge, skills and experience in the sector that would be the equivalence of completing the qualification.



A number of tools provided support this process. It is important to note that no single tool is designed to collect sufficient evidence for making a determination about competence. It is important that as the assessor, you use your professional judgement in selecting and using as many of the tools provided as necessary. Evidence collected should represent the type, quality and quantity that satisfy the requirements and conditions prescribed in the qualification, which is a certificate from the Glass and Glazing Training Package.

About the Assessment Tools

These tools have been mapped to the units of competence listed in this RPL document. If the elective units are altered, the Assessor will need to refer to the training package guidelines to determine if the assessment tools will collect evidence for altered units. If it is determined that they do not, the Assessor can vary the assessment tools provided here to remove any unneeded criteria and add additional criteria for new elective unit(s). Please note that this option to amend or vary the assessment tools is only to be used where there is a different selection of elective units.

If these tools are varied for reasons other than in these circumstances, they cannot be deemed to be collecting sufficient, valid and reliable evidence.

Each assessment tool in the pack has notes and guidance included in them for both the Assessor and the candidate. Refer to each tool for additional information.


LMF30602 Certificate III in Glass and GlazingSection 3 – Interview Question Bank and Recording Sheets

Section 3

Interview Question Bankand

Recording SheetsThis section contains questions the Assessor may ask of the candidate in documenting their conversation during the RPL interview.

Assessor’s InstructionsIt is not intended that every question for each competency be asked or discussed during the conversation – only those questions related to those competencies that the initial documentary review has failed to fully address are required.

Each question provides key points to look for in the candidate’s responses. You may wish to use these key points to formulate questions of your own, contextualise, or rephrase the suggested questions to suit the candidate’s particular work situation.

On the Recording Sheets, place a tick next to each key point as it is addressed by the candidate during the conversation. By doing this, you are recording what you have heard the candidate say during the interview.

Use the Assessor’s Comments section next to each question to provide further details about the context of the discussion or other key points and examples the candidate has discussed that may be relevant in confirming competence.

It is important to remember that the notes taken during the questioning interview are important evidence and should be retained as part of the candidate’s assessment records.

Section 4

Practical Tasksand

ObservationRecording Sheets

This section contains practical assessment tasks that the candidate will complete to assist you in determining a candidate’s skills and knowledge.

Assessor’s instructionsUse the Observation Recording Sheets for each of the practical tasks to document the skills and knowledge demonstrated by the candidate in completing each of the required tasks.

These practical tasks may be modified to suit the context of the candidate’s workplace, job role or their work environment.

Not all tasks need to be completed by the applicant. The Assessor should select only those tasks that will provide the required evidence to prove competence by the candidate.

For a whole qualification it may be necessary to perform all tasks.

It is important to remember that the notes made during the observation by the Assessor of the practical demonstration are important evidence and should be retained as part of the candidate’s assessment records.



Practical TasksWhile performing the various practical tasks, it is important that the principles of Occupational Health and Safety, and workplace safety requirements be met at all times.

Assessors need to ensure that the specifications for materials/resources used in the practical tasks are consistent with those in the critical aspects of evidence. (Refer to the Mapping of Assessment Tools document for more information)

There are nine tasks available for selection. It is not anticipated that a candidate will be required to do all of them. As the assessor, you need to select the range and number of tasks that will contribute to the overall collection of evidence for determining competence against the Training Package qualification requirements. All work should be completed to industry standards.

In assessing the candidate’s RPL evidence, if it is determined that a different Task is required to fill a gap, the Assessor should develop the required task and document this in the spare “Task” box.

A range of tasks should be selected to demonstrate competence in both processing, installing glass and glazing products and fabricating and installing metal frames. Tasks demonstrated should include both residential and commercial environments.

LMF30602 Certificate III in Glass and GlazingSection 5 – Candidate’s Information and Self-Evaluation Forms

PART 2

Section 5

Candidate’s Informationand

Self-Evaluation FormsIt is recommended that candidates be provided with this information before applying for RPL.



What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)?RPL is the acknowledgment of skills and knowledge obtained through learning achieved outside the formal education and training system and includes work and life experience including paid and volunteer work and skills attained through leisure pursuits such as musical, mechanical or linguistic abilities.

RPL recognises any prior knowledge and experience and measures it against the qualification in which students are enrolled. The individual may not need to complete all of a training program if he or she already possesses some of the competencies taught in the program.

Why you should apply for RPLIf you apply for RPL and your application is successful you could:

reduce or eliminate the need for any training in skills and knowledge you already have

save time by not needing to attend any or a reduced number of classes and completing unnecessary work

save money because you will not have to buy textbooks and other learning material

complete your qualification in a shorter time

advance to a higher level qualification in a shorter time if desired.

Some terms you need to understandIt is important that you understand the following term to assist you with your RPL application.

Competence

Competence is the demonstration of skills and knowledge that you have gained through life and work experiences as well as any training that you have successfully completed that can be matched against a set of industry performance standards referred to as units of competency. These units are grouped together to form a specific industry qualification, within the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF).

Each unit of competency is divided into elements (a set of activities that lead to an overall achievement or demonstration of competence). Each of these elements is further broken down into a set of performance criteria which give a more detailed description of the skills and knowledge you need to be able to demonstrate.

Matching your evidence against each of the elements/performance criteria will help you to reach your qualification more quickly.



How to prepare for your RPL assessmentIn order for your skills to be formally recognised as part of a national qualification, Assessors must make sure that you (the candidate) have the required skills and knowledge to meet the industry standard as specified in the relevant Training Package.

You must be involved in the RPL process so that all the experience, skills and knowledge you have gained over time can be correctly identified and suitably demonstrated. This evidence is gathered and used in recognition of all or some of the units for the qualification you wish to gain.

All assessment requirements will be discussed with you in advance and you will be given the opportunity to ask questions and clarify requirements. Being prepared for the assessment process and knowing what you need to provide can save you valuable time and ensure that the RPL assessment is as simple and stress-free as possible.

Here are some tips to make the application process and interview easier for you.

1. Your Assessor will ask you to talk about your work roles and your employment history.Bring a copy of your résumé. You might like to write down any work you have done in the past (paid or unpaid) and where this took place.

2. If you have certificates from any training courses you have completed, bring along either certified copies or the originals to the interview with the Assessor and they can make a copy of them.

3. Bring along any other documentation that you think would support your claim that you have done this work over time.

The following is a list of some of the documents you can provide as examples of your work history:

brief CV

certificates/results of assessment

any licences

tickets held, eg forklift, crane

photographs of work undertaken

diaries/task sheets/job sheets/logbooks

site training records

site competencies held record

membership of relevant professional associations

hobbies/interests/special skills outside work

references/letters from previous employers/supervisors

industry awards

any other documentation that may demonstrate your trade or industry experience or support your claim.



Depending on where you have worked and what the work may have included, you may or may not have documentary evidence. Do not be put off if you do not have documentary evidence, as the Assessor will work with you during the assessment process.

4. Think about who you would consider to be your workplace contact or referee.

Is your employer happy to support your aim to become qualified?

Would you feel comfortable if the Assessor contacted your current workplace or previous workplace/s to validate your skills and spoke to your supervisor/s or employer/s?

5. You will need to supply the contact details of work referees who can confirm your skills in the industry.

Think about who the best person to confirm your skill level would be.

Think about current or recent supervisors or employers who have observed your work and who would be able to confirm your previous work skills and experience. The Assessor will need to contact them.

6. You can speak with your Assessor about other ways you can show your skills for the trade or industry in which you are seeking recognition.

These could include letters from employers, records of any training courses or professional development sessions attended, employers or clients in related industries or government agencies, acknowledgements, workplace forms (as long as there are no confidentially issues – see below) or any other relevant documents.

Confidentiality issuesIt is important that sensitive information is not included as part of your Supporting Documentation (as identified in Section 6 and any other documentation you wish to use as evidence). You may need authorisation from your supervisor to use some of your evidence, so it is always best to check the privacy and confidentiality policies of the organisation. Client names should be deleted and financial figures or other personal details should be blacked out and made unidentifiable.



The four steps in the RPL assessment process

Once your training organisation has provided you with the information you need to apply for RPL, you need to follow these four steps in order to complete the process.

Step 1 –Self - Evaluation

You need to assess your current competence before you decide to apply for RPL for one or several units of competency.

Complete the candidate’s information and self-evaluation forms provided. It is important that you include as much information about your previous work experience as you can.

This will allow for an initial assessment of your experience and a check to see whether or not you can demonstrate the required skills and knowledge. You can discuss this with an RPL Assessor if you want.

You must be able to provide evidence against the elements and performance criteria for the relevant unit/s to prove that you are competent. It is not enough to simply state that you possess the skills and knowledge required. You must be able to demonstrate competence.

This is your opportunity to provide as much proof as you can of the variety of experience you have had. You should supply examples of your work history if you have any. (See Tip 3 above.)

Depending on the trade or industry you have worked in, you may or may not have documentary evidence available. This should not deter you from seeking RPL, as the Assessor will work with you throughout the RPL process.

You will also need to provide your Assessor with the contact details of two work referees who can confirm your skills in the industry. At this stage, your Assessor may also request that you ask a third party to complete a third party report to obtain confirmation from a workplace referee of your work experience, skills and knowledge. (This, however, may come later. See Step 4.)

Once you have completed the self-evaluation form and decided that you wish to apply for RPL for this qualification or a number of selected unit/s, make an appointment for an interview with an Assessor and enrol for RPL.

Note: It is possible to gain RPL for an entire qualification.



Step 2 – Enrolment and interview with the Assessor

An interview with an Assessor who understands your industry will be organised for you. They will review – usually with you – the information and supporting documentation you have provided and match up your skills to the units/subjects in the qualification.

During your RPL interview, your Assessor will discuss with you your self-evaluation and any evidence you have provided.

It is at this point that you will be able to identify any previous work experience and discuss this with your Assessor.

During this conversation, you will be required to answer questions relating to your work experience. This questioning forms part of the assessment, as it will identify your current knowledge and skills regarding the area of industry in which you are applying for recognition.

If you are currently enrolled in a training course relating to this qualification, it is important that you let your trainer know that you intend to apply for RPL, then nominate the units you have selected for RPL so that the required documentation can be processed and your application can go ahead.

It is at this stage that a decision will be made whether you are able to proceed to the next step or whether you need to undergo gap training.

Step 3 – Practical demonstration of your skills

Your Assessor will organise with you and your employer to conduct a practical skills test at your workplace (if appropriate) or other suitable location.

This is your opportunity to demonstrate your level of competence on a practical level. The assessment will focus on the skills required in the work activities which relate to the qualification in which you are applying for recognition.

Your Assessor will identify the skills they want you to demonstrate by asking you to complete certain tasks.

Step 4 – Provision of further supporting evidence

Your Assessor will need to confirm your previous work experience with someone (such as your supervisor or employer) who can vouch for your skills over a period of time.

They will contact the referees you have provided as part of the candidate information.

Your Assessor may ask you to give your selected workplace contacts or previous employers the Third Party report to complete. Authentication of these reports by the Assessor would then be required.



After the assessmentAfter the assessment, your Assessor will advise you of the units of competency you have successfully completed. You will also be advised whether you have gained the full qualification or if gaps have been identified during the recognition process. If you do have skill gaps, these may be addressed through additional training.

If you have any questions during the RPL process, you should contact your Assessor.

Self-EvaluationThe purpose of self-evaluation is to enable candidates who feel they already have the required competencies to assess their experience against the requirement of the qualification.

To complete the self-evaluation, you are required to do three things. Firstly, you are required to indicate if you can claim the criterion. This simply means ticking yes or no to the question to indicate whether you have had experience in this area.

Secondly, if you tick yes to any question, you are asked to indicate the amount of experience you have had by placing a tick in either of the choices. If you have done the task or activity only once or twice, you would tick that column. If you have a lot of experience in the task or activity, you would place a tick in the ‘often’ column.

Thirdly, for all criteria for which you tick yes, you are asked to note down what evidence you can provide to support your claim for each task.
