|HOW TO USE THIS RPL ASSESSOR KIT |
This RPL Assessor Kit is divided into sections to allow you to easily access only those sections you require at any given time. These sections are:
SECTION A – Assessor Information
You need to read this information before conducting an assessment. It outlines the intent and processes surrounding this RPL assessment and how it differs from assessment undertaken following formal training.
SECTION B – Candidate Information and Application Forms
You give this information to the candidate. It tells them about the assessment process as well as containing simple forms for the applicant to fill out. From the information provided by the candidate on these forms, you will be able to gain a general understanding of the skills and experience the candidate may have, as well as potential referee contacts.
SECTION C – Competency Conversation and Record of Conversation Sheets
You use this section to determine and record candidate competency via a competency conversation. In other words, these questions guide your conversation with the applicant and assist in your assessment of their competence. The notes you take about this conversation are important evidence for assessment.
SECTION D – Practical Tasks and Observation Recording Sheets
You use this section to assess competencies through a practical demonstration of the candidate’s skills. It contains practical tasks/scenarios on the outcomes required to determine competency and a place to record your observation. The notes you take are important evidence for assessment.
SECTION E – Resources for Practical Tasks
You use this section to access required resources for performing practical tasks and scenarios.
SECTION F – Third Party Verification
You give this section to the referees to confirm the candidate’s skills and experience in this qualification/occupation. The referees may fill out the appropriate form and return to you to confirm your judgement. You may be able to complete this part of evidence gathering in person while at the workplace.
SECTION G – Assessment Tables
You use this table as a reference tool to see at a glance how units/elements of competency are assessed within the tool. All the elements and performance criteria within the competency units are cross-matched in this table with a corresponding assessment question/task/scenario. This allows you to validate the assessment process against the qualification.
SECTION A
Assessor Information
It is VITAL you read this information prior to commencing your RPL assessment. It provides generic information on assessment, as well as an overview of this streamlined RPL assessment process.
|ADVICE FOR ASSESSORS |
This RPL Assessors Kit streamlines the RPL assessment process for BCC30203 Certificate III in Civil Construction (Bituminous Surfacing) by taking a practical approach to RPL and increasing the use of on-site questioning and observation. This will assist in developing a “picture of the candidate’s skills and knowledge”. This picture can then be compared with industry standards enabling a determination of whether the candidate has achieved the required outcomes.
IMPORTANT ASPECTS TO REMEMBER:
A sound knowledge of assessment and the qualification is essential
It is important to have a good understanding of the competencies and qualification/s appropriate to the candidate’s goals.
Assessing a single unit of competency is rarely cost or time effective. Where possible, effort should be made to assess several units at the same time taking advantage of any commonality in content. This means looking at the whole picture of a particular job role as it happens in industry and assessing holistically. This saves valuable time in the assessment process.
Assessment involves judgement
This tool encourages the use of a “competency conversation” to maximise the candidate’s opportunities to demonstrate competence. This is NOT an oral exam. It is about using the two or three holistic questions provided to start a conversation with the candidate which draws out their actual individual experiences and relevant skills. In other words, it is about the assessor probing the candidate through a conversation to draw out further information on the candidate’s experience which may not be forthcoming due to nerves or confusion over technical terminology.
The tool also provides observable tasks to allow candidates to demonstrate skills.
Authentication/verification is integral to RPL assessment
It is critical information gleaned from the interview and observation be confirmed with those who can vouch for the candidate’s skill over time. Supervisors would generally perform this role. Authentication may also be done through conversation but it cannot be stressed enough that it is essential assessors take careful notes to back up and record their judgement.
Recording assessment is critical
Keep careful records of all aspects of conversations, skills demonstration or documentation viewed that support the claim of prior learning. Remember – the record is the document that makes sense of the assessment and why a particular judgment was made. Keeping detailed notes about the candidate’s response is vital, as is the rationale for judgement.
The assessment record is a legal document and must be signed, dated and stored according to requirements of the State Training Authority and the AQTF Standards for Registered Training Organisations.
Assessor summaries and other quality assurance documentation from your own Registered Training Organisation will also be required. For examples of assessment summary documentation, please see Assessment Guide Number 1: Training Package Assessment Materials Kit:
To access further information on the principles assessment and dimensions of competency, you can visit Assessment Guide Number 1: Training Package Assessment Materials Kit.
To access further information on the Australian Qualifications Framework, you can visit:
Licences
Some individual competency standards may be subject to licensing arrangements before training is commenced or before undertaking related work in the industry. Other standards may require licenses for those responsible for delivery and assessment.
Employability Skills
Assessment of a candidate’s employability skills should be integrated into the assessment of their technical skills and knowledge. Where possible, employability skills have been embedded within the bank of questions and practical assessment tasks in this RPL Assessor Kit. Therefore, assessors should make and document holistic judgements about a candidate’s attainment of employability skills as part of the RPL assessment. For more information about the employability skills requirements for particular qualifications, refer to the training package.

|OVERVIEW OF RECOGNITION PROCESS |
This kit has been developed to streamline the application for RPL.
|RPL ASSESSMENT PROCESS FLOWCHART FOR ASSESSORS |
|STEPS IN THE RPL PROCESS |
1. Complete application
The candidate completes the application forms in SECTION B. It is important candidates provide as much information of their previous experience in civil construction as is available.
Documents that may be available include but are not limited to:
← any licences (vehicle, MR, HR or HC, etc).
← Detailed CV or work history
← Certificates/Results of any prior Training/Assessment relevant to this Qualification
← Indentures/Trade Papers
← Certificates/Results of Assessment – universities
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – vendor training courses
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – in house courses
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – workshops, seminars, symposiums, etc
← Results/Statements of Attendance/ Certificates – club courses e.g. first aid, officials, Surf Life Saving, etc
← tickets held – eg. Backhoe/loader, grader, roller, excavator, compactor, skid steer, chainsaw, scraper, confined spaces, traffic controller, WHSO, WHSO reps
← signed logbook for operation of backhoe
← signed logbook for operation of a roller
← Photographs of work undertaken eg during construction, completed jobs etc and to be verified by an Employer Representative in charge of the respective work
← diaries/task sheets/job sheets/log books
← site training records
← Site induction records
← 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 industry experience
Candidates also need to provide contact details for one or two referees who can confirm their industry skills in context and over time.
To have skills formally recognised under the Australian Qualifications Framework, you must ensure the candidate’s skills meet industry standards.
2. Interview about candidate’s documentary information
Review the information provided by the candidate and arrange a time for both you and the candidate to discuss. Begin alignment of documentation and skills to the following qualification:
BCC30203 Certificate III in Civil Construction (Bituminous Surfacing)
The candidate will have the opportunity to discuss and identify previous experience with you. The available documents are step one in collecting information and you will need to determine which units of competency, if any, are fully covered at this stage. You use your own or your RTO’s assessment recording forms to record this stage of the assessment.
There may be instances where the candidate has little, or no, documentary information of industry experience. This is not a barrier to gaining recognition. This will just require you to rely on the questioning, practical assessment and referee validation phases of the RPL process.
3. Questions for the Competency Conversation
The bank of questions in SECTION C is the next phase in collecting evidence for the RPL process. The questions are designed to enable you to have a “competency conversation” with the candidate to further gain evidence of their past experience. REMEMBER, the primary focus is on the candidate’s experience.
Each question has “key points” to look for in responses. You may use the list of key points to formulate questions of your own if you wish, or contextualise the question to the candidate’s particular work situation. The Record of Conversation sheets indicate relevant content that should be sought. Place a tick next to each key point as you hear this topic being discussed during the conversation. You should read the “industry requirements” of each competency before the candidate answers the questions posed. You may also target the assessment to those aspects that present the greatest risk in the industry. Questions are aligned with the relevant unit/s of competency in SECTION G.
It is not intended every question for all competencies is asked, only those competencies the initial interview about the candidate’s documentary evidence has failed to fully address. The question bank covers most but not all units in the kit. Units without questions are covered in the practical assessment/scenario section.
4. Practical assessment tasks
It is important that you use both Steps 3 (Questioning) and 4 (Practical Assessment) in doing this assessment. The RPL process is a streamlined RPL process which does not rely solely on practical assessment but uses a combination of questioning and practical to provide evidence of candidate competence.
This is the third phase in collecting evidence. A practical skills test is then conducted by you at the candidate’s workplace or another suitable venue. Appropriate permission must be sought before entering workplaces.
This is a further opportunity for candidate to demonstrate competence. It is expected the practical assessment will comprise only those competencies the candidate is still unable to demonstrate knowledge/experience in after documentary review and questioning have been applied. These assessments contain the practical skills and application of knowledge for the qualification. A number of holistic practical assessments are included in this kit (SECTION D) to assist you with tasks suitable for observation on the job.
You decide if the response to questions and practical assessment tasks fulfils the requirements of the standard and may choose to pursue the issue further for a determination to be made. The assessment is a conversation/observation, not an exam, and you are encouraged to assist candidates to focus responses toward relevant issues.
Assessing through observation and questioning, particularly on the job, will speed up and streamline the RPL assessment process.
NOTE: Where candidate’s documentation and questions meet the assessment requirement, it is still strongly recommended the candidate undertake one practical assessment so you are confident in making a judgement of “competent”. The practical assessment selection should be negotiated between you and the candidate.
Recording sheets for candidate information, questioning and the practical assessments have been included in SECTION D. You may use other recording mechanisms provided these also keep a complete record of assessment and justification of judgement. Candidate responses, observations of skills demonstrated and documents presented as evidence must be noted in enough detail so anyone external to the process (e.g. a fellow assessor, auditor, lawyer, etc) can read the record and retrace your judgement.
5. Gap training
RPL is an assessment process designed to show areas of competence and to identify IF a candidate has gaps in skills and knowledge against a whole qualification.
Not all candidates will have skill/knowledge gaps.
If a candidate has skills gaps, a pathway to complete training in the outstanding units can be negotiated to assist the client to gain the full qualification.
|EVIDENCE REVIEW |
Recognition of prior learning outcomes (both Granted and Not Granted) are now funded nationally and as such will be included in National AVETMISS audits. NCVER have stipulated evidence recording requirements for RPL assessments as a minimum requirement for passing an AVETMISS audit. The following “Evidence Review” proforma has been approved by NCVER as covering AVETMISS audit requirements for RPL recorded outcomes. It also gives you an opportunity to track a student’s assessment progress at a glance.
It is expected that this “Evidence Review” summary sheet (or similar) would be attached to each participant’s evidence compiled during the RPL assessment process.
(Place a tick in the appropriate evidence collection method column for each unit of competency. Place a line through those units not examined as part of this RPL assessment.)

SECTION B
Candidate Information and Application Forms
You give this information to the candidate for them to read about the RPL process and to complete the appropriate forms.
|WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE RECOGNISED IN THE CIVIL CONSTRUCTION (BITUMINOUS SURFACING) |
A plant operator in the civil construction industry will work in basic civil construction site activities, operating a range of plant equipment. Plant operators drive backhoes, bulldozers, excavators, front-end loaders, graders, scrapers, skid steer loaders, rollers and forklift trucks to level, excavate, move and load earth, rock and other material.
A plant operator may perform the following tasks:
• prepare machines for operation
• load and unload equipment from low loaders and move it around work sites
• select, change and operate special attachments such as winches, scrub clearers, rippers, pile drivers and rock-breaking hammers
• work from drawings and markers under the direction of supervisors and engineers
• back-fill trenches
• break up paving, rock and similar material by operating hydraulic or pneumatic breakers
• excavate or scrape earth, rock or rubble to the correct level and alignment
• load trucks with excavated fill
• drive machines to and from work sites
• service equipment by cleaning, lubricating and re-fuelling it and make minor adjustments and repairs when necessary
• maintain duty of care for other users and work to occupational health and safety requirements.
The work conditions for mobile plant operators can be hot, muddy, dusty and noisy, but most earthmoving machines have soundproofed and air-conditioned cabs for the operator.
Personal Requirements:
• enjoy practical and manual work
• able to follow precise instructions
• able to work as part of a team
• physically fit
• good eyesight
• good hand-eye coordination
• able to work without supervision.
|TIPS AND HINTS TO HELP YOU PREPARE FOR RECOGNITION |
To have skills formally recognised in the national system, assessors must make sure you have the skills and knowledge to meet the industry standard. This means you must be involved in a careful and comprehensive process that covers the content of all unit/s or qualification/s you can be recognised for.
Assessment happens in a variety of ways. Being prepared can save you valuable time and hassle and make the recognition process stress-free for you.
Here are some tips and hints for you:
1. Be prepared to talk about your job roles and your work history. Bring a resume or jot down a few points about where you have worked, either paid or unpaid, and what you did there.
2. Bring your position description and any performance appraisals you have from any civil construction jobs you have worked in.
3. Consider the possibilities for workplace contact. Are you in a workplace that is supporting your goal to get qualified? Would you feel comfortable to have the assessor contact your workplace or previous workplaces so your skills can be validated?
4. Think about who can confirm your skill level. Think about current or recent supervisors who have seen you work in the past 18 months and will be able to confirm your skills. The assessor will need to contact them. You may also have community contacts or even clients themselves who can vouch for your skill level.
5. Collect any certificates from in-house training or formal training you have done in the past.
6. You can speak with your training organisation about other ways you can show your skills in the civil construction industry. These could be letters from employers, records of your professional development sessions, employers or clients in related industries or government agencies, acknowledgements, workplace forms (as long as they don’t show client details) or other relevant documents.
|STEPS IN THE RPL PROCESS |
Step 1 – Provide information of your skills and experience
Complete the attached forms and provide as much information of your previous experience in the civil construction industry as you can. This is your first opportunity (and not the last) to provide proof of your variety of experience in the industry. Here you can supply examples of your work history which could include:
Documents that may be available include but are not limited to:
← Any licences (vehicle, MR, HR or HC, etc)
← Detailed CV or Work History
← Certificates/Results of any prior Training/Assessment relevant to this Qualification
← Indentures/Trade Papers
← Certificates/Results of Assessment – universities
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – vendor training courses
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – in house courses
← Results/Statement of Attendance/ Certificates – workshops, seminars, symposiums, etc
← Results/Statements of Attendance/ Certificates – club courses e.g. first aid, officials, Surf Life Saving, etc
← tickets held – eg. Backhoe/loader, grader, roller, excavator, compactor, skid steer, chainsaw, scraper, confined spaces, traffic controller, WHSO, WHSO reps
← signed logbook for operation of backhoe
← signed logbook for operation of a roller
← Photographs of work undertaken eg during construction, completed jobs etc and to be verified by an Employer Representative in charge of the respective work
← Diaries/task sheets/job sheets/log books
← Site training records
← Site induction records
← 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 industry experience
Depending on the 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 during the RPL process.
You will also need to supply contact details of one or two work referees who can confirm your skills in the industry.
Step 2 – Conversation with Assessor
An assessor will review the information you have provided (usually with you) and begin to match up your skills to the units/subjects in the qualification. At this point, you will have the opportunity to discuss and identify your previous experience with the assessor who will understand your industry experience and conduct a competency conversation with you. You will be required to answer civil construction industry related questions to identify your current skills.
Step 3 – Practical demonstration of your skills
The assessor will conduct a practical skills test at your workplace (if appropriate) or at another suitable venue. This, again, is an opportunity to demonstrate your level of competence. This assessment will be focussed on skills that are required in the qualification. Your assessor will identify the skills that he/she will want you to demonstrate.
Further steps
After the assessment, your assessor will give you information about the skills that have been recognised and whether you have gained the full qualification. If you do have skill gaps, these may be addressed through flexible training.

SECTION C
Competency Conversation and Record of Conversation Sheets
This section assists the assessor in documenting the competency conversation.
Do NOT give this section to the candidate.
Once you have assessed the candidate’s documentary information and determined which competencies you still require more information/evidence on, you use the question bank and Record of Conversation sheets in this section to document evidence of past experience. It is not intended that every question for all competencies be discussed during the conversation, only those competencies the initial documentary review has failed to fully address.
Each question has “key points” to look for in responses. You may use the list of key points to formulate questions of your own if you wish, or contextualise or rephrase the suggested question to the candidate’s particular work situation. The questions are not intended to be a formal ‘script’ for the assessor to follow, but to provide guidance in exploring the range of the candidate’s skills, knowledge and experience in performing a particular task or function.
The Record of Conversation sheets indicate relevant content that should be sought. Place a tick next to each key point as you hear this topic being discussed during the conversation. In doing so, you are making a statement of fact about what you hear the candidate say during the competency conversation. Use the Comments section to provide further detail about the context of the discussion or briefly outline any examples discussed by the candidate. You may also use the Comments section to make a brief analysis of the responses or summary judgements about the quality of the candidate’s responses in relation to the requirements of the competency standard.
Remember, the notes you take about this conversation are important evidence and should be retained in the candidate’s assessment record.

|Steel double drum static roller | | | |
|used when vibration isn’t suitable (eg thin lifts, rolling over fragile | | | |
|infrastructure, close to buildings, on bridges) | | | |
|used for asphalt in limited course thickness | | | |
|grow weight of roller can be altered by adding ballast | | | |
|compaction effort dependant on gross weight of machine and contact area of drums | | | |
|rollers with large diameter drums have lower drawbar pull (rolling resistance) and| | | |
|reduces bow wave problems | | | |
|smaller roller widths may result in larger number of required passes | | | |
|variables – speed of roller, position of roller on mat, number of passes, | | | |
|operation with drive wheel or drum toward the paver | | | |
|Vibratory roller (single drum / double drum) | | | |
|can be operated in 3 modes – static, both drums vibrating, 1 drum vibrating/1 drum| | | |
|static | | | |
|can vary both frequency and amplitude of compaction | | | |
|spacing of impacts depends on frequency of vibration and travel speed of roller | | | |
|uses for a wide range of asphalts which are laid at different depths | | | |
|more effective on harsh mixtures | | | |
|importance of maintaining constant rolling speed | | | |
|pumped or gravity fed sprinkling | | | |
|forward and reverse mechanism | | | |

|variable speeds, compactive effort, rolling capacity | | | |
|operator controls nominal amplitude and frequency, speed of roller, location of | | | |
|roller to paver, number of passes, number of drums vibrating | | | |
|problems caused by selection of wrong force level, rolling too fast, making too | | | |
|many vibratory passes | | | |
|Self propelled multi wheel pneumatic tyred roller | | | |
|mostly used behind a vibrator or static steel wheel roller | | | |
|compactive effort dependent on wheel load, tyre pressure, tyre design, depth of | | | |
|penetration of tyres into the mix | | | |
|the greater the contact pressure between the tyre and the mix, the greater is the | | | |
|compactive effort applied by the roller | | | |
|kneading and flexing action imparted by tyres is effective in sealing the surface | | | |
|of the mat and can be used to deal with cracks left by other rollers | | | |
|must ensure tyres gain heat as quickly as possible to minimize pick-up | | | |
|must use lubricants on tyres | | | |
|may be fitted with canvas skits to assist in maintaining heat build up around | | | |
|wheels and tyres | | | |
|rolling effort is useful in closing up surface of freshly laid mat but retain good| | | |
|texture | | | |
|may have hydrostatic drives to effect a smooth change of speed | | | |
|may have steering pivot/oscillating front tyres for smooth turning action, no | | | |
|reflection from previous layer-overlay | | | |
|frequently used on surface dressing to embed chippings without crushing aggregate | | | |
|ancillary equipment may include hydraulic side impact wheel to achieve high levels| | | |
|of mat density at longitudinal joint | | | |
|variables under operator control – rolling speed, location of the roller on paver,| | | |
|number of roller passes | | | |
|Combination roller | | | |
|can apply vibratory force and pneumatic tyre kneading action | | | |
|may produce significant variation in density across width of lane | | | |
|gives the asphalt surface a different structure – denser and smoother finish | | | |
|variety of accessories can be attached | | | |
|Oscillating roller | | | |
|can compact asphalt within a wider temperature window | | | |
|can be used in close proximity to fragile structures and underground services | | | |
|uses two diametrically opposed rotating vibrator shafts | | | |
|rapid gentle compaction | | | |
|reduced vibrations have positive effect on drum life, noise level | | | |

|Checks work order/job specifications | | | |
|Keeps appropriate records | | | |
|Plans work sequence and develops a schedule | | | |
|Checks tyres and plans water usage | | | |
|Identifies hazards and plans to minimise risk | | | |
|Transverse joint | | | |
|compacts transversely | | | |
|uses runoff boards to support the roller as it moves beyond longitudinal edge of | | | |
|the pavement | | | |
|ensures entire width of the joint receives equal compactive force | | | |
|if compacting longitudinally because of site restrictions, roller should pass | | | |
|slowly and completely over the joint before the machine is reversed | | | |
|Longitudinal joint | | | |
|compacts the unconfined edge of the first lane correctly | | | |
|ensures edge of the drum on a vibratory or static steel wheel roller extends out | | | |
|over the edge of the mix when the first lane is being densified | | | |
|ensures roller make the same number of passes over the edge of the first lane as | | | |
|are made over the rest of the width of the lane | | | |
|may cut back joint line with a cutting wheel before construction of LJ | | | |

SECTION E
Resources for Practical Tasks
You use this section to access any resources required by the candidate to undertake the practical task/s or scenario/s. They are suggested resources only. You may wish to modify or use other resources for the assessment tasks.
As these tasks will be completed at the worksite all resources required for the completion of these tasks should be available at the worksite. It is anticipated that no additional resources will be required.
SECTION F
Third Party Verification
The preferred approach in gaining third party validation is to take the forms in this section to the candidate’s previous employers or referees to gain confirmation of the candidate’s skills against the required competencies. This would be done during a conversation or interview with these people.
It may be beneficial to make contact with the employers/referees early in the recognition process to make appointments, particularly if you have to travel some distance to visit them. This may be done on the same day as a practical assessment in the workplace if appropriate.
It is recommended that verification be obtained from one or two referees who can confirm the candidate’s industry skills in context over time.
