During your vocational placement:
While on your vocational placement, you will be required to undertake tasks that your vocational placement supervisor will observe and make comment on.
You will need to work on the activities in the Skills Workbook.
Familiarise yourself with the content of each assessment section before starting your placement, so that you dont miss out on documenting any information that is required.

SKILLS WORKBOOK (This workbook)
To complete your skills workbook, you will be required to complete a variety of assessment methods:
Undertake a task, describe how you completed the task to meet requirements, enter the date and get your supervisor to sign off in confirmation and add any comments they have as a result of their observation of the task.
Third-Party Reports some tasks require the direct supervision and observation of you completing those tasks. The Vocational Placement supervisor or nominated educator must complete the relevant sections.
Projects this workbook contains projects that require you to conduct workplace observations, complete checklists, write reports, and submit supporting documentation.
Written Questions this workbook also includes supplementary guide questions to document details of your completion of tasks.
Competency Based AssessmentCompetency based assessment requires students to be able to demonstrate their competency consistently.
Please ensure that your vocational placement supervisor is aware that they need to include comments about their observation.
Once you have submitted your completed your skills workbook, your Assessor will assess the evidence to determine your competence. The assessor will look at the information and comments that the supervisor has provided and determine whether each task has been done satisfactorily.
To be deemed competent in each unit, you are required to achieve a satisfactory result for all of the assessment components that make up that unit. Where a not yet satisfactory judgement is made, you will be given guidance on steps to take to improve your performance and be provided the opportunity to resubmit evidence to demonstrate competence. Once a satisfactory judgement has been made on all components for a unit, you will be deemed competent in that unit.
Supervisors GuidelinesSkills Logbook/Signing Off
The Skills Workbook is designed to be used by both the student and their vocational placement supervisor.
The Student The Vocational Placement Supervisor
to help review their progress
to provide them with a record of the skills and knowledge they have gained through their industry placement and training in the workplace to provide a record of the students progress in the work environment
to help the vocational placement supervisor deliver on-the-job training
Competency based assessment requires students to be able to demonstrate their competency consistently.
Students can demonstrate their skills by being observed performing duties within the facility, showing their skills in a simulated or practice style activity and responding appropriately to questions showing essential knowledge of the task being performed.
As a vocational placement supervisor your role is to observe and supervise the students complete the tasks outlined in this workbook, and confirm the documentation provided by the student. For each task, the students will be required to provide details about their performance. By signing the relevant workbook observation forms, you are confirming that you have observed the candidate complete the tasks and perform them according to the descriptions provided by the student.
Where you find that the students performance is not yet according to the organisation and industry standards, you are encouraged to provide comments. The assessors will be using this documentation to evaluate the students performance.
The comments section is provided for you to comment on the performance of the student. Please always include comments as these are critical in determining whether a student has demonstrated competency in a task.
Where not enough information is provided, the assessor may contact you to provide additional details.
Once completed and signed, the student is required to submit their Skills Workbook to their assessor to complete their final assessment.
Please note: You are not required to assess the student but your observations as an industry expert form an important part of the information reviewed by the assessor in determining the competence of the student.
If a student is not yet satisfactory at performing a task providing them with feedback and opportunities to practice the task will help and positive feedback on satisfactory tasks will increase the students confidence in their abilities. Should you have any concerns or questions about completing the Skills Logbook please contact the Placement Coordinator and they will assist you with any queries you may have.
If the student has been unable to demonstrate performance in any tasks during their industry placement, we will assist the student where possible to find a way to demonstrate their skills in this area. Some elements will be achieved through project work and workbooks.

FORMTEXT It is focused on what learners can do and whether it meets the criteria specified by industry as competency standards. Assessment should mirror the environment the learner will encounter in the workplace. Assessment criteria should be clearly stated to the learner at the beginning of the learning process. Assessment should be holistic. That is it aims to assess as many elements and/or units of competency as is feasible at one time.In competency assessment a learner receives one of only two outcomes- competent or not yet competent.The basis of assessment is in applying knowledge for some purpose. Ina competency system, knowledge for the sake of knowledge is seen to be ineffectual unless it assists a person to perform a task to the level required in the workplace.The emphasis in assessment is on assessable outcomes that are clearly stated for the trainer and learner. Assessable outcomes are tied to the relevant industry competency standards where these exist. Where such competencies do not exist, the outcomes are based upon those identified in a training needs analysis.
Assessment must be valid Assessment must include the full range of skills and knowledge needed to demonstrate competency.
Assessment must include the combination of knowledge and skills with their practical application.
Assessment, where possible, must include judgements based on evidence drawn from a number of occasions and across a number of contexts.
Assessment must be reliable Assessment must be reliable and must be regularly reviewed to ensure that assessors are making decisions in a consistent manner. Assessors must be trained in national competency standards for assessors to ensure reliability. Assessment must be flexible Assessment, where possible, must cover both the on and off-the-job components of training within a course.
Assessment must provide for the recognition of knowledge, skills and attitudes regardless of how they have been acquired. Describe the steps you followed to prepare for this support activity:

Task 2 will require you to submit four (4) progress notes that you have completed during your vocational placement.
Task 3 will require you to complete a reflective journal as part of the documentation of your learning experience relating to supporting and empowering older people during vocational placement.
Task 4 will require you to complete the Observation Form with your supervisor.
Assessment Requirements
To complete this subject, you will need:
A vocational placement provider that will allow access to:
Two (2) clients living with dementia, their families and or carers
Two (2) meetings, one for each client living with dementia that you have been assigned to.
At least three (3) discussions with supervisor and or colleague(s), as required in the Reflective Journal (See Journal Entries 1, 3, and 6).
At least two (2) clients whom you can provide with personal care support (see Observation Form Items 1 10)
Access to clients and their families and carers that will enable you to perform the items in the Observation Form of this subject.
Activity Planning SheetTask 1
Note: Read all instructions carefully before proceeding.
Steps to take:
Speak with your supervisor about opportunities for you to assist in organising activities to support two (2) clients who are living with dementia.
Request to participate in two (2) separate meetings with your supervisor, the clients and their families, and/or carers. You are required to participate in two (2) separate meetings, one for each client.
Clarify with your supervisor the role you will take during these meetings. Are you allowed to provide input in these meetings? If so, what type of input? Will you just listen, observe, and take notes? Are you allowed to ask questions to the client and his/her family and carers?
Prior to the meeting(s), discuss with your supervisor the information you will need to complete in the Activity Planning Sheet found on the next page.
Note: The Activity Planning Sheet is strictly for assessment purposes only and is not to be used as an official workplace document or for any clinical or diagnostic purposes. This is only used to guide you in gathering information about your clients which will help you think of activities that will benefit them the most.
Participate in the meetings and complete the Activity Planning Sheet for each client. You may also like to use a separate notebook to take down information before completing your Activity Planning Sheet.
The Activity Planning Sheet has two parts:
About the Client
This is the first part of the Activity Planning Sheet and will be completed with the following information:
Name of client (use an alias to maintain clients privacy)
Clients condition
Needs for a stable and familiar environment
Physical enablers and disablers
Social enablers and disablers
Cultural likes and dislikes
Pleasurable memories
Familiar routines
Level of participation (how much the client can do in terms of his/her personal support?)
Changes required to processes in clients current care plan
Changes required to processes in clients current care plan
The above information will mostly be acquired from your meeting with your supervisor, the client, and their families and/or carers.
Activities for the Client
This is the second part of the Activity Planning Sheet. For this part, you will need to think of two (2) activities that suit the client best, according to the information you collected in the first part of the Activity Planning Sheet. Specifically, both activities must:
Promote and maintain the clients independence
Use familiar routines and existing skills
Reflect the clients cultural likes and dislikes of the client
Help bring back pleasurable memories for the client
For each activity you list, provide a description and discuss how it will benefit the client (E.g. How does it promote and maintain the clients independence? Which familiar routines are used in this activity?)
You may complete this part after the meeting.
When you have completed the Activity Planning Sheets for both clients, submit these to your supervisor for review. Have your supervisor sign off on both Activity Planning Sheets.
Submit your completed and signed Activity Planning Sheets using the filenames:
Subject 4-APS1
(for Client 1 with dementia)
Subject 4-APS2
(for Client 2 with dementia)
Reminder: Remember to ensure your clients and co-workers privacy and confidentiality at all times. Do not include their real names in your submissions. Use fictitious names instead. (Example: If your clients real name is Jack Smith then replace his name with William Jones or any other fictitious name.)
Although you are using fictitious names, the content of your submissions must always be real and factual.
