3 Introduction Thank you for choosing CPD Training to assist you with gaining recognition for your skills and knowledge in building surveying. We have developed this kit to help you gather evidence of your competence in the units across the Advanced Diploma of Building Surveying and to assist you to prepare for the professional conversations you will be having with a CPD Training Coach and Assessor. The principle method of assessing your existing competence will be through the recognition of prior learning (RPL). Participation in this program will require you to: 1. Participate in an induction discussion to set up an individual coaching plan; 2. Participate in professional conversation with your assessor 3. Gather evidence for each unit of competency that demonstrates that the relevant Training Package requirements have been met. What pathways are available for completing the course? CPD training offers a flexible approach to training which includes: 1. Learning by Modules Undertaking studies by the reading of notes, or attending seminars where available, and undertaking written assessment tasks including options for work place assessment 2. RPL by previous education the candidate has undertaken similar studies and can produce evidence of completion, and demonstrate that their skills are current. 3. RPL by assessing competence if you are currently working in a current role, your competence can be assessed by RPL by providing sufficient evidence that meets the training package requirements specific to that unit of competency. The process of RPL is further explained below. It is likely that most candidates will complete the Advanced Diploma or Skill set using a combination of all three of the above methods. That is, there will be units of competency that the candidate will not have experience in, and therefore will have to study that unit using the learning material provided and complete the assessments for that unit. For people with experience in Building Surveying or related occupations, RPL may be used to verify competence in the units. What is Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)? As the term may suggest, RPL is recognition of prior learning. Such learning may be through either prior studies, or work/life experiences. 3

4 This program is designed as a RPL process supported by professional conversations. In many instances RPL is simply known as recognition and is a formal acknowledgment of your skills and knowledge that you have gained through training, work experience and/or life experiences. Recognition of prior learning also takes into account your current competencies and any formal learning you may have undertaken in the past. Assessing your current level of competence in a job role is known as Recognition of Current Competency (RCC). If you can provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate competence to the standards required for the qualification you are able to apply for recognition of your competencies regardless of how those competencies were acquired. Recognition of other qualifications that you hold is commonly known as Credit Transfer. Credit transfer is an assessment process that assesses a qualification or other formal training outcome and determines the extent to which it is equivalent to the required standards in a qualification. This may include credit transfer based on any formal learning that you have undertaken. It should be noted that RPL can only be granted if sufficient evidence demonstrating that the relevant requirements of the training package for that unit have been met. For example, simply stating that you are a building surveyor with 20 years experience may not be enough to demonstrate competency, nor may the submission of a transcript from a related course without a module description. How does the recognition process work? The recognition process requires you to gather evidence of your prior learning and work experiences and the evidence is mapped against the training package competency standards and judged or assessed by a qualified assessor. As with all recognition processes your evidence must be valid, current, authentic and sufficient. Valid Relates to the relevance of your CV, letter and other evidence. How it aligns to the unit requirements Currency Relates to the age of evidence. Authenticity Relates to ensuring the evidence presented is genuine and yours. Throughout this kit you will find recommendations for quite specific types of evidence including a copy of your certificates, building surveying documents and work history. We recommend you draw from the last 12 months and not to go back further than 3 years. If your evidence is over 3 years old and you have not been actively working in the building surveying industry in recent years then you will need to discuss this with us. You may need to complete some units in training mode, not RPL. All past certificates and qualifications that you submit as evidence must be a signed as a genuine copy of the original by a JP and have the correct codes and qualification name and be from an identifiable RTO or university. 4

5 Sufficiency Relates to the amount of evidence collected. Your work evidence must be your own work or you are part of a team. Do not submit evidence that is the work of another person. We check signatures on records, and ask for third party letters of authentication from a manager, or client and / or statutory declarations. We have supplied guidance on evidence checklists in this kit. Please follow the instructions closely. Work on the self-assessment checks first, then clearly label your evidence. You can provide more that the minimum but do not go overboard. t too little and not too much. What if there are gaps in evidence? If there are gaps in evidence or questions arising from the quality of the evidence, authenticity or currency you will be given the opportunity to explain this and if necessary to resubmit further evidence. You will have an agreed time to complete the process with reasonable adjustments depending on your circumstances. If you do not have enough evidence you will be required to complete the relevant unit of competency in training mode. What you need to do. 1. Gather the following information for discussion with your assessor. General employment documents CV or work history; Relevant position descriptions; Certificates/results of assessment; Details of in house courses, workshops, seminars, orientation or induction sessions; References/letters from previous employers/supervisors. Workplace documents Certificates/results of assessment; Site training records; Site competencies held record; Membership of relevant professional associations; Relevant hobbies/interests/special skills outside work; Industry awards; Any other documentation that may demonstrate industry experience. Completed self-assessment checklist Complete the self-assessment checklist in this document for the relevant unit of competency. Unfortunately, we will not be in a position to give you RPL unless you can clearly demonstrate competency in each of the r 5 2. Participate in the Induction Discussion with your Assessor and develop your individual coaching and portfolio plan. 3. Gather evidence and prepare for professional conversations with the Assessor See the unit by unit description of the evidence you must gather for each module and unit.

6 4. Participate in professional conversations with your Assessor An assessor will review the information you have provided and give feedback on the coverage of your evidence against the unit requirements. You will have the opportunity to discuss and identify your experience with the assessor who will understand your industry experience and the assessor will conduct a competency conversation with you. You will be required to answer building surveying and legislation related questions. A range of sample questions have been provided to assist you to prepare for these discussions. Refer to the unit evidence guide. 5. Completion of each module and the units of competency At each module, your assessor will give you final feedback on your knowledge and demonstration of applied skills that have been recognised through the evidence and the professional conversation. The decision is made whether you have gained the agreed RPL units and can move on to the next module and units. Or, if you do have skill gaps, these may be addressed through further workplace evidence or more formal training and assessment top up supplied by the Assessor. See the example topic discussion points in this coaching guide.
